Sounds like a warped disc, best option is to change it and problem solved, resurfacing doesn't have a guarantee for success, imo just a waste of money, recently had the discs of my swift resurfaced/ground, was an absolute joke! garage fellow told me new discs were well over 3 grands a pair, turned out to be less than 2 g's including fitting and taxes, not worth the risk. Ultimately the choice is yours.

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.

Thanks a ton brothers

Where do they spray the deodrant injector cleaner? into the petrol tank or do they remove the fuel tank and clean the injectors seperately?

Injector cleaners come in both types. As petrol additives as well as manifold sprays. The spray types are more concentrated and better, they need to be sprayed directly into the manifold. I once did this to my bike. Disconnect the fuel line at the petrol tank, and dispose the fuel that's there in the line. Then keep spraying the cleaner into this petrol line while continuously cranking the engine(the cranking opens the injector window, so that the cleaner gets to pass through it). And, you could then remove the injector and clean its opening holes(there're 6). I posted the injector pics somewhere on this thread. BTW, I used Wurth's injector cleaners.

Hi man,

I sold my Stunner and bought a R15..!

The new R15's launch is delayed coz of the honda CBR 250R. There are rumours that the new Yam might be a 200-250cc.. If a 250 is what u want, then wait. Otherwise just go ahead and buy that R15! u'll never be disappointed.

Thats Nice!!!

If I wanted a 250 cc I would have gone for CBR 250R for sure.

I checked with a yamaha guy at Goregaon Factory Shop. He told me the new version will be launched by May end, But not sure about it.

I am confused!!!

If you want to wait for the CBR-250, then you prob. should.

If you're waiting for the R15 revamp to hit the showrooms, then its a waste. It wont be out until late September. Your pick!

Yamaha is already finalizing the R4 which is a 250 cc. That too wont be available in India until Yamaha makes considerable sales in Europe for 2-3 years. The new yamaha launch in India is only the remodeled R15 with probably the same engine build.

Better not wait if you don't want to

**aditaya.chopra** · 03-10-2011, 04:35 PM

yamaha have two model which is not launched in india r125 and r4 dont know why hope because r15 sale is going on top of graph

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!

Your problem was solved after the re-alignment?

Yeah, I am studying to be an engineer, so I know what facing is

But what shocks me is how can I have a plate issue so soon?? I changed my pads at 8k kms! and its not even 10k now (9.6 to be precise).

Are we looking at quality issues?

Or is it my fault in anyway? The previous pads were changed at the right time, as far as I know and I've not damaged my plates physically (accidents etc) ....I am at a loss for words now

My concern is, NEW DISC PLATE for a bike barely 6 months old! WTF

Bro I have also decided to sell my Apache and buy a R15. Service dealer here is my friend. He told me that it was about to launch in feb but due to some problems it is delayed and its about to launch near April or may..
M waiting If you can wait its worth since you will have some distinct looks.. or may even have some tuned engine..

Yes, its called a DOME COVER or the Pilot Lamp Cover. Ask for it at the SVC and they'll give you a pair

Someone had stolen mine a month ago and I had to get a pair too

No need jd666, they do provide it without the headlamp assembly as well

Many R15 owners lose it or someone takes it off so they provide a replacement.
