Better to remove it as in anycase it doesn't have a ladies' footrest so how can any lady sit sideways on it!

Beware of such girls, my friend They are the shallow/slutty kind :P

@ ZeNashb
which headlights are those in your new pic ?

btw how much did the mech qoute for YZ 125 ?

for fz150i's performance its a quite a good bike, for acceleration, same as yzf-r15's gear ratio and 150cc, so not much of a difference except that it only has 5 gears compared to r15, ratio is all the same(had mine fitted the r15's 6th gear)
front disc, rear drum compared to r15, and i think the fuel mapping in is ecu is a bit leaner compared to r15..(planning to fit r15 ECU to compare it soon..)

for honda tiger, is it the 400cc bike?with v-tec and non v-tec engine?

New R15

Mumbai guys need some help here!!!
My friend want to buy R15 from here in mumbai.The showroom guys are saying waiting period of about 3 months & my friend want it in 3-5 days after booking.he don't have enough patience.Also he is ready to shell out more money than the on road price for such urgency.Black colour is available here.But he wants it in RED colour only.So where shall he get urgent delivery in Mumbai.Please tell the names of the showrroms where it can be readily available.Thanks in advance.

Yes, lots of experience in that field :P

These are the HIDs on my bike. Thanks to KwokFist, I was able to re-adjust the way they lit up according to my liking, that is, only the Left one in low beam, only the right in high beam and both in a middle switch position All's well with the world again...

The mech isn't done with the bike yet. The two times I rode it, it only seemed to need a pair of wings :P

EH, what's his urgency? When I bought, I had to wait for a month because of no stock. Even I wanted only red, so had to wait. I offered to pay the entire amount of the bike + some extra commission to the dealer, but he just couldn't get me the bike since there were no bikes to give! I suggest patience, but if its important that you get in a hurry, then you might have to go out of state...

hi all.,
I have a question in mind
IS IT BETTER TO SERVICE UR BIKE (FREE SERVICE) ACC TO KMS DONE OR DAYS COMPLETED ??

My opinion is KMS done

im from Pune . i had gone to my dealer just today. While talking to him about the bike he mentioned that he just had a red bike right now, but i guess it was already booked and he said the waiting period is about a month and a half!! but still, whats the hurry eh?

well, u HAVE to go before the last date specified else it isnt a free servicing anymore. so i would say go for whichever comes first, kms donr or the days.

If the guy cant wait, tell him to book the bike from a private/individual dealer, I booked my 220S from a private dealer and got the delivery of the bike in 5 hrs FLAT, but had to shell out 4K more

visited service centre today fo my last free service

guess what, i found this machine over there
the colour combination is really good

wanted to share with you all
this guy is from bhopal...
small custom paint job, seriously looked stunning

that is one sweet colour combo!!

finesse...........!!!

Here is a short review of the Yamaha R15.

Engine - This engine feels like it is made for only one purpose - to rev as quickly as possible to the redline. It is also somewhat dual natured. Keep it below 5k rpm, it feels like any other 150cc engine, sometimes even slower. Low end torque is nothing exceptional but gets the job done. Refinement is average but the engine sounds silent. It can potter around at 4k rpm, but riding a gear or two lower at higher rpms feels much better. Compared to my earlier P150, which had the sweet spot at 4k rpm which translated to 60-65kmph on the speedo, this engine has its sweet spot at around 8k rpm. And the refinement of the engine at such rpms is just phenomenal - the engine may growl, but it feels very much composed. The engine just comes alive in a manner to be experienced to be believed and feels extra responsive and eggs the rider on to the redline. This aspect can not be matched by any of its competitor including the P220. And yes, it can run at such rpms all day long - this makes it a very good tourer. Inside the city, the rider has to work a bit to keep it on the boil, but the reward and satisfaction is immense. And with such smooth and precise gearshifts, the task becomes even easier. In all, the engine is very entertaining as well as somewhat involving. But one disadvantage is that, it may not feel "settled" at lower rpms that are commonly seen inside the city.

Handling - In this aspect this bike has no equal. Have a curve coming up too fast? Just dial in the appropriate lean angle and she will straighten it out without any fuss. It is almost as if the bike is on rails. The whole package is brilliant. The suspension is a bit stiff though, and may cause problem on broken roads, but is otherwise fine. Straight line stability is good too, but the P220 has the edge here. Brakes are very good with superb feedback - better than P220. I am not sure if she betters the Apache too in this aspect.

Build quality - Light years ahead of the all the bikes in the present market. There are absolutely no vibes present in the fairing. This is no mean achievement considering that bikes like P220 and even the ZMR face such issues.

Seating position - It is a bit aggressive. It takes some time to adjust to the position. Initially, palms will pain too. But once the rider gets used to it, sitting on some other bikes with conventional seating position will feel weird!

Electricals - Lighting is better that average, but could have been better. Rest everything including the speedo/switchgears feels superb.

Overall - A fun to ride bike. It is actually VFM if you consider the fun-to-price factor. But yes it is involving, so it may not be everyone's cup of tea. As for me, it is the best bike on the market right now. (excluding the Ninja 250R)
