        Got my RED Baby R1 on Monday, Till now i have completed Only 100 KMs. i wasn't Keeping well for 2 day so couldn't take her out with me. I felt the bike very Responsive and very Eye catching. The Blazing red Oh i love it. I am enjoying a lot of attention now. I thought that won't happen as R15 was around quite sometime now ..But to my Surprise i had Three guys, came to me asking for the price and the Mileage ETC. Even at petrol bunks such things happend. also whenever i park the bike i can see people coming in and checking out My Bike. OMG I'm truly Loving it.. Even Couple of times i had another R15 (Black) along side with me but. people didn't even bother about it. they were into My BABY(Note: R15 Black Owners.. This is my experience which i had Mentioned here, so please don't feel bad at me . I Know that what is under the hood Matters, not the color)..
        Hey buddy congrats man, get well soon

        what mileage did u guys get..when you were within the 1st 500 kms...?
        i got an average of around 38-39.

        and now that it's crossed 500 kms..i can push it till 7500rpm..which i already did today. I was very careful not to cross the limit.
        Will there be a noticeable change in mileage now..?

        And one more thing..will there be any problems..if i push the bike farther in each gear..as in is it ok to reach the 7500rpm range in every gear..including 1st , 2nd and all..?

        No there should not be any problem in pulling each gear to the max recommended rpm level.

                  0.10 mm for inlet&
                  0.20 mm for exhaust.
                  Also ask him to be very careful while disconnecting the fuel pump connector.
                  All the best!
                  he does thanks

                  • remember that the range of setting is 0.10-0.14 for intake and 0.20-0.24 for exhaust. And dont rev your bike too much the first few 100-150 kms after setting the tappets if you would like the setting to last longer.

                    • Thanks for help with regards to coolant warning light as mentioned it was low coolant level, things like this should be sorted out before the bikes are dispatched

                      • For guys complaining about the gears not slotting, please check your clutch setting, i.e the free play in the cable/clutch lever. Coz if the clutch is not engaging and disengaging properly, the gears will not slot properly

                            Yes it will void the warranty. And it is LOUDDDDDD. Be prepared to be pulled up by cops

                            • TBR in my opinion is not worthy .. try Proton or KRP which costs way too less and works equally good

                              • Finally my steering woes are over. The T or the lower bracket is bent, which tilts the steering slightly to the right, but now the wobbling problem is solved. Rides like a dream!

                                Got a lot of stuff lined up at the next oil change...

                                @ JD- Thanks a lot mate. Couldn't have done it without you.
                                You get the point?? :D
