Thanx a lot bro.. Well no doubt R15 is the best bike I'm definately having one..
but regarding the 2011 upgrade I recently came across some posts in various sites that new R15 is upgraded with new hot rear portion with LED lights.. M including image of it too.. Plz check it and tell me coz I can wait for sometime..

**xszpranajit** · 02-20-2011, 04:29 AM

want to change few thing in my R15 from its stock parts do need some suggestion
1. rear tyer as same in size but looking for different pattern grip
2. Air filter as same as Stock Replacement Air Filters one but not K&N High Performance Air Intake Kits.
3. engine oil semi or full synthetic? using now yamaha semi synthetic
4.and last for head light HID , Projector, xenon, or white halogen any thing which is better and will not effect the performance and no such load in batteries because Fi works with the help of current

thanks in advance

Nope, it will not cause any problems - just need to keep revs above 3k rpm and switch it off in signals etc.

As the fan was not working for the first odd 150KMs, do i need to get my engine oil and oil filter changed or wait for the first service?

NO. Nothing of that sort required. Do the oil filter & oil chage at the 1st service.

met with a small crash today.
was rear ended by a car at a traffic signal.
Nothin major happened. The bike didnt even fall.
Just the rear mudguard boke.

Any idea on how much it will cost to replace the mudguard.
All the indicators and numberplate, etc everything is fine.
Just the black plastic part broke.

Thanks for the help.

Look at the prices at digislayer's link. You guys should have got it by now.

Use the search feature & look back a few pages. Sarvajit/ neil_jericho had posted tyre options.
2. Air filter as same as Stock Replacement Air Filters one but not K&N High Performance Air Intake Kits.
Joel has come up with an air-filter for the R15. There's a separate thread on that. You can seach for joel's page, & then look for threads started by him.
3. engine oil semi or full synthetic? using now yamaha semi synthetic
Use FS for high high-rev usage. Other wise SS should be more than ample. You should try the Motul SS.
4.and last for head light HID , Projector, xenon, or white halogen any thing which is better and will not effect the performance and no such load in batteries because Fi works with the help of current
Again, look back a few pages. This has been discussed a lot in the thread. Use the search feature.
thanks in advance

Answers in blue, above.

Cops wont catch you anytime for using Angel Eyes.

They dint stop you because they were staring at you ride,they dint stop you because there isnt any reason to!there is nothing illegal about Angel Eyes!

i use both hid in low beam as well as high beam from last two month and i havent face any issue i just change my minda batt with amron 5amp batt
regarding angel eye i wana to mean that when cops saw my light they look my bike as it is imported bike they havnt seen that bike before

thats not right way by this method your batt will drain faster because when u switch on your HID they take 8 to 9amp of current for full glow when glow came they came to 3 to 4amp current so dont switch of light on signal better to remain on

Depends on the length of the signals!

Here in Blore, most of the signals last for a couple of minutes - in such situations, switching it off and back on is preferable, but with signals of less than 30sec or so, you need not bother.

And, I use 2 HIDs with stock 3.5Ah batt, so I speak from experience.

My front disk is making a very mild "trrrr" kind of sound when the Brakes are applied at over 80+. What may be causing the sound and how can I fix it. Its really irritating

1 check weather there are scratch on disk if yes then your break pads are gone
2 check your disk might be bend somewere
3 check there might be small peble wash your disk pads with pressure
hope it might help
