Most people just see the costume of the bikes... they near look into the technology which is in it........ takes time to change those kind of mindsets

I dont follow a rule book to service the bike, I work on my bike as and when needed.

No mates, i have been very careful driver since past 1 year. This bike is not used rashly neither it's given a boost this days... I am driving it as a normal commuter would drive.

on a serious note , Any fuel will do until its clean, been using ordinary fuel since 2.3 yrs and bike runs like a charm .
I dont see/feel gains when using premium fuels.(personal opinion)

The only difference which I felt in the Karizma was a wee bit sluggishness in 5th at very low rpm's, don't have that luxury in the 15

On showing it to the garage they said..it would have to be replaced..!

Can anyone tell me whether its possible to purchase only the right handle bar alone..or do I have to purchase both L and R as a set..!!
And also what is the cost of the handle bar..?

A little help please...!!!

vibrations also comes when the bolts are over tightened. I have experienced same type of vibrations at 4k rpm, but they were gone when the bolts are loosened.

do you mean the fairing/visor bolts?

folks!!!!got my racing blue r15 yesterday....all i can say is this bike is butter smooth,power is low in lower rpms,still i havent checked the higher rpms because of the running in restrictions....well just wanna know do i have to vary the speed or i can continue riding in a constant speed....yamaha guys told me that this bike is not bounded by running in restrictions,u can rip it if u want.....fooools!!!!

Congratulations bro

the vibrations from the visor at particular rpm range is a problem several users has been facing. i have been having this prob for the past 1.5 years. the svc guys opened up the entire front portion 3 times but they simply failed to rectify the problem all the time. now i keep some cotton(that is used by svc mechanics to wipe their hands during work)stuffed between the front visor and the speedo. the vibrations has reduced considerably and you wouldnt hear it at all if you ride with the helmet.

Thank you man, will try the same after I try the loosening of bolts as suggested by our friend "painreloaded"

I have checked this with Yamaha trained engineers. Be rest assured, this bike will have double or triple the life what other Indian bikes give.
70/80K kms.is about 1/3rd of what it is capable of lasting, given that the oil changes are at the right intervals.
This bike comes with an all aluminium piston&cylinder which you find in high end cars.
With full liquid cooling, Fi, et.all, in what way is it less than a car?
If a car can last 2-300,000kms., why not this bike?

cleaning chain from service centre is really costly job so tommorow i'm going to get Motul chain clean and chain lube. but came to know there are many types of chain lube dry, wet. Yamalube, motul so i'm confused which one to go can you people put some light on this.
thank you

Yes, you can buy the right side alone or left side alone. Once I bought the left side handle bar, I think it costed me around Rs 150

Go for any high octane fuel.

**Rajesh Mudaliar** · 08-26-2010, 11:23 AM

SHELL is better for R15's

**TijoJoy** · 08-26-2010, 12:22 PM

I Prefer Shell NOrmal than any other petrols. I personally Feel that i'm getting better milage and beter Refinement using them.
