    Trust these guys as you would a politician, a lawyer or even a journalist! After all the same political family in power for the most of the last 64 years and our beloved country moves forward in a backward direction, lawyers defend Bollywood murderers and Pakistan terrorists etc. Journalists re-invent stories for self recognition or just for the sake of talking, why would the SVC guy be any different? BS is not in our blood, it's our way of life.

    This thread has become absolutly rediculous, other than the 'leaked' photo's, there has been nothing substantial, just 40 pages of speculation in a very short time.
    why so much faith on service center guys dude? What about in cbr 250 time? They couldnot even tell the specs properly also. We knew far more then them that time. May be they are saying so to clear out old stock of r15. Who knows

I also heard somewhere that Joel has started designing an automatic laser gun and grenade launcher that will be direct fits to the exhuast and the headlamp assembly. I am just hoping it is priced under 1.25 lacs.

        @mods Thats it ! it can't go any worse, please lock this thread.

        And I thought the new bike could fly also!

        On a serious note, speculations are good, but it's better that we don't keep very high expectations, or atleast not without any confirmed news. These things happen before every launch and once the bike is launched, people start complaining saying that it doesn't have this, it doesn't have that. Whereas the company never promised or issued any statement. So lets wait for some solid news.

        P.S.: These are my personal views and not to offend anyone. I've seen such things happening in other threads, so just mentioned it here.

            @MODS: on a serious note, please lock this thread till R15 is launched. This thread is not going anywhere.

            • Good one Abhi…


              But 180 section tire and all this added accessories will increase the weight, decrease the performance, skew the power to weight ratio, the FE will go down, the tilting angle will go up, the bike will become front heavy, it will become tough to do wheelie and the breaking distance will increase due to momentum. Also the Dytona Nitro boosters are not easy on IC propulsion systems with after burner, rather I’ll expect using a variable geometry high lift cam will variable timing exhaust system designed by Dyna Haden. Not to forget current horn is meek and a Pro Dolby Digital, DTH, STD, PCO, ISD acoustic system should be fitted to play horror music to scare off the ppl on the road… Blah Blah Blah….Blah Blah Blah….

              With just one pic in hand every one want to realize their own dream bike from it, we all are ready with our wish list and an arsenal of Jargons. It’s a discussion without content now. Till we discussed speculations it was fine, now we are just discussing wish lists made on that speculation…
              Serious readers will soon suffer from “Haystack Syndrome”.
              The thread should be locked till any substantial update is available.

                • the guy also told me that if there was something coming up then there would be lots of advertising from the company itself...

                  i guess I'll wait for this month to pass by and then take decision.
                  Take good care of your ride.

                  • @mods: sorry to post a link...

                    @guys : check this video, at the end when yamaha ceo shows the inside of yamaha factory, the floor colour and layout matches with the one in speculated image of r15. ... R15 or R16 is coming...
                    Yamaha India's new boss is very excited. The R15 and the FZ16 are doing well, and there's more coming...

                      Cool speculation.

                      OT: dude in your profile pic the speedo reads 135kmph but the N is for neutral right? is it possible?

                            My views on the YZF-R15 V2.0: http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/news/198...tml#post699240

                            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.
