How much u paid and from where u bought it???Originally posted by Enthusiast View Post@ All
Though I felt its expensive wanted badly to service the unguarded chain & engine oil at my wish. The best part is it fits both my bikes, so this will do duty for P200 & R15.
Luckily the stand is not rusted as someone mentioned in the forum earlier.

Sorry to hear that dude! BTW, this is too many crashes (I mean, not you, but overall)...Originally posted by realredice View Posthad a crash this morning while riding to office... a stupid cab driver was driving fast on the wrong side of the road and had steer away to miss him... the rear tyre slipped and i crashed
... right side (again) fairing needs replacement, but it will have to wait a while...And God said, "Let there be light" and there was HID Kit. And God saw that the light was good;Comment

might be am late to answer this...Originally posted by souvikb83 View Post
yes, the security system first of all is not RECOMMENDED!!! secondly the R15 battery is too weak to handle tis sooner or later you will face some problem. Thirdly, do not tamper the factory settings (wiring etc.), you will meet thousand people here who wld give you the same advise.Comment

^^ souvik before u install the security system doa small test..take ur bike out in traffic for a good distance until u feel the fan turn on(clue- heat on ur right thigh/leg) then ride with teh lights on high beam and after 2-3 min of this press the horn..it will be weak
there is an overwhelming amount electric energy needed and teh battery just about manages to cope with it..adding more stuff to it wud definately push it over the edge...
better to let the stupid bas***** tuch her in daylight than leave her alone at night becoz she wont start as the battery wears out..Why is the man who invests all your money, called a broker?Comment

Samrath you are correct!Originally posted by Samarth 619 View PostDude, at 90% times, I use front brakes first & then rears & it feels safe. However, 2 things I would like to add:-->
1. In muddy/ slippery areas, this order should be reversed! (Read: The rest 10% cases!)
2. If Front Brake is heavily applied, then applying rear brake may cause it to slide @ rear, due to lighter rear ... There is NO such problem on my Pulsar ... However, considering your R15 very light & hard front brakes, better be careful ...
This 2nd situation is just my realistic imagination ... It never happened to me.. ok?
ok wont quote any genius from my side here... but has anyone heard that rear disk brakes as stronger and as calibrated as the front disk brake?????
its because IF the rear is made as strong as the front then the locking of the rear brake will result in skidding side ways. check any sports bike in net you will always find the rear ones smaller than the fronts. And yes! R15 is no exception in wet, muddy and slippery surface. It behaves in the same manner as the others do. So be careful while riding in the slippery surface. Further, in dry places one can go ahead and apply front first and rear later.
By the way to know about braking PM santoosh!!!!. we had one session of 15 minutes during our maddur ride.

the reason for them being smaller in size is not because they are stonger..but due to thier position they are more suceptable to cause a skid. the front doesnt because the weight of the bike comes over the front rubber to give more grip and stop faster. As far as rear is concerned..while braking it pulls off all the wieght from the rear tyre making it easier for it to loose grip.Originally posted by Reuterian View PostSamrath you are correct!

if the same brake (used at rear wheel)is used on the front wheel it will perform better due to its location.Just because you haven't seen it doesnt mean its impossible...expect the unexpected.Comment

@archibaby Thanks for Informing. On my bike shifts are hard since a month and I was unable to understand why it happened. I will go to the showroom tomorrow and get the tension adjusted.
@realdice Happy to hear that you are well and you were wearing necessary Riding gears.
@Enthusiast Bike looks very good on paddock stand. Congrats.Yamaha YZF-R15 is HereComment
