    Yesterday i tried to check my bikes top speed....I could take it to 136 on the odo
    But i have a question here...
    In 5th gear i could take it to 130 KM/H and the RPM meter was showing the needle in red line. then i shifted to 6th gear and the needle dropped to 8k-9k(somewhere in between) and did not go past, speed was around 130+.
    Is there any limit set for 6th gear? In all other gears i could take the needle to red line easily.
    I think 6th gear is for cruising mode and not for top speed..
    I'm not a owner currently but have my hands on it few times.. so answering according to the short experience.

            Well IMO I would go Joeled if I had to get some serious modification done. And Yes kindly remove your profile pic, as stunting without wearing proper gear is something which xBhp doesnt permit or support.

                  daytona kit will cost you over 35k and is not worth it... definitely Joel.... go through the following threads: http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/pit-stop...e-goodies.html and http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/pit-stop...mance-ecu.html also http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/pit-stop...w-exhaust.html

                      check wether bike is accedental or not then get engine checked with a good mechanic and take test long ride as well in trafic before you buy

                      • Coming home.

                        Hello all I'm back after a long break from xbhp for the past couple of months. Was trying to reduce my online footprint for no motivated reason Browsed back a couple of 100 pages and found a lot of new owners on board the R15 thread That's awesome stuff.

                        Welcome to everyone! and Hello to the old ones

                        Getting right down to business, my rear disc makes terrible screeching and screaming sounds at the smallest hint of braking. I got new pads last month and the sound has gotten louder by the passing day. I took it for a check-up twice and the mechanic at the SVC dismantled the tire, cleaned the plate and rubbed the pad, to no avail

                        What do you think is the problem?
                        D'oh!

                          Ohk.. I will check it out when new R15 will be launched.. since it is supposed to have LED tail lamps so for HIDS I think just battery replacement will work.. Well thats just a guess..

                          85k is not a good deal.. you should ask him to observe and test the bike carefully for any problems, damages or replacements that may have been carried out and then only you can decide whether 85k is worth or not.

                            Welcome back!

                            Not sure, but are your pads fitted in properly? ( I know, you went twice to the SVC but..)
                            Few months back, my front pad started squeaking after a pad change and it was not "aligned" perfectly according to the SVC. Hence..

                            Anyways, wait for the others to reply to this. They might help you out better!

                            • @zenash - if the pads are not aligned.. then it time for a rear disc change. Alternately you can get it milled slightly ( removing about 0.1-0.2mm of material from either side ) on a lathe. the process is call facing.
