    break lever can be adjusted...but not very user friendly ..means only for a short length...

    anyway...i normally brake both.. kicking back throws me out...i usually catch front break ...release it again front break..release and so on...believe me this really works like abs...dont forget to apply back also veery lightly and increasing in proportion....

      sorry bro but that is the wrong technique for braking ... because when you hit the front brake , the contact surface of the tyre with the road increases and gives you better grip as the front dives in due to braking , so if you progressively apply the brake you will stop much more efficiently ... Your method will have the contact surface first increasing and then decreasing and results in a greater chance of a lock up or a skid ...

              The pleasure is when your rear wheel slides, and you bring it back; and when the front wheel lifts, you take your time bringing it back.

                        whenever I ride my bike at abt 4 rpm, in any gear, I feel a li'l vibration.....Not sure why is it so ......
                        other than that at all rpms the bike's super smooth..
                        Is this due to resonance???? some part of the fairin loose???

                            Yes there is resonance around the 4 -4.5 k RPM range in the R15. Seems like a classic case of fairing vibrating. Check the nuts on the black part of the fairing the part that is below you eyes when you re astride.

                                even if you go with statics r15 is the ony bike whose price had been increased from last two years while bajaj and hh has reduce there bike price because yamaha have fine technology about fuel injector as compare to other companies in india (p220fi stoped production & hh zmr same as old karizma)
