    people still will give you a second look!
    so, don't worry..
    go with the blue or the black! both look equally stunning!
    though black is the toughest to maintain..
    most of us here have the blue/black..
    i personally went for the black one as IMO it is evergreen!(ironic)
    yellow is just too flashy and grabs too much of attention...
    whichever the colour, there are pros there are cons..
    but in the end the colour is what matters the least..
    at the end of the day you will be satisfied with the feel not the look..

    well said bro!
    you are really good at speeches!
    ever thought of becoming a politician???

            why not! my party will be named xbhp, catch line would be "by a biker for the bikers" and party emblem would be the R15

              • NEED HELP!!!
                every time i start the bike when it is cold (a cold start), then the rpm level rises to 2k rpm or more.. does this happen with all the bikes???
                and the tacho needle sways quite a lot now-a-days...
                what is the reason for the swaying??

                  • free upgrade for side/front cover - net

                    free upgrade for side/front cover - net

                    see picture. red is the new panel with net and blue the old without net.
                    got info that Yamaha is upgrading panels with net in front/side.
                    think all owners need to contact your dealer for this.
                    new R15s all have net covering whereas older panels will be changed to netted ones for free.

                    thanks

                        whoa!
                        they'll have to order tonnes of panels if they have to replace them for all existing R15s without them..
                        btw whats your source...??i mean are you damn sure that they'll change it for all foc?
                        anybody got it done yet??

                          well the the material has changed, the design has changed and all this is to aid better cooling...
                          think you need to contact dealer who should have got information and directions from yamaha.

                            most probably protecting the bend pipe, inner parts from small stones, pieces of paper/plastic entering the area.. as we all know some stuff could be inflammable too(paper, etc)..

                              i guess they are just going to add net to the existing panel without replacing the whole unit
