    Ya.. But I'm sure they won't discontinue the body parts (atleast for next 2yrs), considering the blazing red has sold many numbers..
    3795 for the speedo console! Why isn't it covered in warranty?

    i hope they wont discontinue...being yamaha who knows they will ask the customers to get a paint job for 30000rs...speedo waited 1 month to get it yup in warranty only...damn these rains...

      Ohh yeah .. sorry .. I forgot Hero Honda .. I generally do that .. I always forget to count them .. my bad.
      They are true exception in the industry .. as they are the market leader. "Leaders ko sab maaf hota hai!!" (Everything is fair for leaders )

      Really? At least I don't remember any thing like above from Bajaj where they did create hype of a graphic upgrade. If they did, please enlighten me. And do follow upgrades which were hyped up.
      Every one creates hype around their products:
      - HH has been listed above.
      - Yamaha - (naked lord of street + semi fairing + 1 extra horn) = touring spirit
      and so on ..
      - Bajaj also do - for all their bike
      and I don't blame any of them .. this is marketing and they just want to sell their products and it's customers who should try to get into the skin of products to know the true upgrades/features/pros/cons and so on.

        I'd really suggest you to wait for sometime because Yamaha has still not started providing the bikes to Indian showrooms on a full fledge. Only few bikes are being delivered for display sake. It's raining anyways so it isn't really that bad to wait. What say?
        Yes! There are few things in life that are worth waiting for... Will follow that... Yahh its been raining like hell over here too, dont love the new bike covered with mud and all.. I like it clean and shining... Do post some pics when you do get your bike.. can't wait to see it up front.

        Yes! Yamaha

              Guys..I agree even i was not impressed when I first saw the picture of new red colour one month ago. That was a spy pic taken long back. Even when I saw the video I was like..ok not that great. And then I decided to go for blazing red which was available that time in monarch auto, pune. But then again I dont know what struck me..I even wrote a query here in xbhp that I'm really confused between new and old red. Finally I decided to go for new black despite of not liking black so much.
              But, day before yesterday I saw this..



              Also, one of my cousins who saw it in flesh, told me that the pics of new red in the official website are misleading..it is really hot in reality..
              I really think I'll go for red now..because that pic tells me it's damn good..
              If at my previous conceptions of it being too tangy and girly are correct, I'll choose black then..

                Yeah! Look at it in flesh & then decide.. You're anyway fine with black na..
                BTW, the blazing red is also available in most showrooms.. They gotta clear the stock na.. You might want it if you don't like the new red.. so better enquire in all showrooms in your city, before booking another colour..

                  Its all up to the individual when choosing colours...for someone it will be great but for others it might be yuck...go with your heart bro...see the bike in flesh then choose it...to me its way to flashy its striking red all over...black with the graphics really looks nice...why the blazing red worked in its favour was toned down red almost a maroonish look which is light on the eyes and black faring at the sides made it even more sexier..

                    Ya...blazing red's still there in few showrooms..but this new one is making me drool now..
                    But will see it in flesh for sure before buying coz the showroom owner told me I can choose between any colours as soon as bikes arrive since I've booked it long back..he still has blazing red i guess..but those body colored fairings are tempting me a lot..so..

                    • Ya...true..colour is finally personal choice..
                      The example's right here..the R15 in that same picture looks flashy to you and attracting to me.. I dont know how because 15 days ago I was about to take blazing red home..I still can but now no no..

                            They have already started giving deliveries of the new colours..
                            The price is 1,12,350 OTR here.. Even the existing blue one (there is no NEW blue R15, per the owner) is now being sold at this higher price (old price was 1,11,400 OTR)..
                            Plus the new colours come with rim stripes on the alloys as standard..
                            The showroom owner also told me that the existing colours are being discontinued.. So that means an end to the Blazing Red, & the non-stickered Black..

                            • has anyone else seen the white/red combo? unlike the red here with a bit of white, that one was a white body with bits of red. looks very much like a racebike. i had briefly seen one when passing by the yamaha showroom at thane, looked pretty good from what little i saw. anyone have photos?

                                u mean something like the 09 R1???
                                anyway , it should be some local paint job. i dont think yamaha is giving such colour combos yet.
