        There isnt a K&N filter for the r15, though you can hack the universal series into it!

        • Cramster saddlebags

          Is anyone using the Cramster saddlebags on the R15? Please post a review if yes.
          I would like to see pics of the straps&also of the contact area on the rear panels.
          @HydBiker: I think you have this.

          • @Sarvajit: I have used it more than once. Its good. But it makes contact with the rear panels a lot. It in fact rests on them. So put a cloth between the panels and the bags. Am also afraid that it may break in the long run.

            But using the bag upsets the whole balance of the bike as the R15 is highly sensitive to weight distribution. The aerodynamics is also heavily compromised.

            O.T: Where is KP? Never seen any posts from him in a long time now!

              • I am planning to invest some on Riding gears and will start from Jacket. I am thinking of buying a Mesh Jacket for obvious reasons. Yesterday I visited Castrol Bike Zone and checked out DSG Maze and Spike. I was kinda impressed by Maze. Light weight, good looks with leather etc. All seemed to very nice and great.
                But I would like to know if there are any down side of DSG Maze as I do not know anyone who owns it. Thanks.

                      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.

                      • Yamaha FZ referrals

                        Just got a call from Yamaha saying I will get Rs.500 if I refer anyone from Hyderabad for buying an FZ before 30th of this month. The buyer will get Rs.2500 off if he is buying too!

                          Hmmmm.. Interesting stuff that!
                          Seems like Yamaha will launch the Fazer soon (as early as July)..
                          & my guess is they will price the Fazaer at max 68k ex-showroom, and reduce the prices of FZ-16 & FZ-S by atleast 2-3k each..
                          So, have you already started preparing a list of prospective FZ buyers..?

                            Hehehehe, yeah the MD of a showroom here also said Fazer 150 will be out by next month.
                            I'm not considering making money on this, but if someone wants the FZ, I would be happy to help him avail a good discount on it!

                                Hmmm.. Its called the Fazer, I can bet my life on that.. But it will actually be funny if it will be called the Fazer 150.. Cuz that will confirm it has the same mill (except the Carb vs. FI bit) as the FZ-16/S, but nomenclature-wise, has a mill smaller by 10cc.. Will make the Fazer owners feel smaller..
                                & maybe they are giving the discount thingy only for the first few customers of the R15.. I'm speculating this, cuz you were one of the 1st ones..
