I own a black R15 wit white stripes. Im thinkin to put HID lights! but my friends said it drains battery and leaves to starting problem! Is that true???? if its soo can i put the angel eye ring alone????:

Nothing actually-it was still full when we opened the cap.

It should last much longer, in my case it was only topped up once at the 2nd service, never after that till the radiator was replaced last time i.e., the bike was 2.5 years old!

R15's engine has a compression ratio of 10.4:1, so 91 octane is the best suited petrol. Use Xtra Premium or Speed for best results.

Actually for the compression ratio the R15 runs, normal petrol will do just fine. As long as we get pure petrol, not the adulterated crap most bunks dispense.

If anyone is interested in buying Angel Eyes can buy it from Ebay as its available

eBay India: Angel Eyes or Demon Eyes or Angel Lights Blue for R15 (item 280635627613 end time 04-Mar-2011 20:48:47 IST)

first of all sry for replying 10 months l8tr.....i will be putting up the same nos issue here in talkies.!! lets see about others viewpoint!!

first thg the man who gav me the key said was to never use x premium in R15....when asked why? said it will give somthgs extra initially..and afterwards will damage ur engine!! :P

Nos?????

Oh my god!!!!!! Its jus 150cc babes!!!!!!! how could we rise her wit NOS????? and coolant wit fry out. But if we can fit NOS wow!

actuallly for my nos the full full changes from nitrous oxide system to 'normal oxygen system'....that is how to put up nos on 100-150 cc bikes cheaply!!!

i couldn;t start up ma own thread so...will post here.!!

NOS - Normal oxygen system

For a 150 cc engine ...can r thinking use NOS ?/...simply NO, if u are thinking about fast 'n furious showcased nos...those can create upto 300hp power with a press of button..which any common sensed guy knws , is not possible for r15.

it doesn't mean we cannot use it in a 150cc engine...is it a small thing to create a 2-3 hp power increase for a 17 bhp engine...and many guys with so much mods like special cams, ecu, exhaust, etc...hav made an increase more than 21hp in r15 costing a huge bulk amount worth half of bike!!
\So for the topic,
i'm just thinking to use pure oxygen instead of nitrous oxide ...taking in account of producing loww power increase cheaply and safely..

nitrous oxide is used for its o2 carrying capacity (and certain other advantages, will be explained if needed)... eventually it breaks up during combustion to produce o2 to further combust all fuel at once giving spilt sec power..

unlike n2o, o2 is easily available anywhere ...so its refilling is easier and less costlier..

for installing use a small cylinder( mr.butler soda maker's co2 cylinder will do the purpose)...fill it with o2 , u will need a solenoid valve with a switch to inject the o2 when needed....o2 can be supplied to injection manifold, a tube from o2 cylinder put into intake part will do..fit the o2 cylinder at a suitable place....thats it...ur NOS is ready !!

all these combined will cost u around 1000Rs to max....

NOTE: only thing u hav to remember is to use only nos at high rev..ie. when max fuel is injected..'n supply only small amount....veeeeeerrrry small 'n i mean it....u will be surprised wht a small amt can doo!!

@jd666

Is there anyway to adjust the bite of rear disc brake? I mean if its pressed on to the disc (slightly) even when not in applied state can that be adjusted?

Feels so good
