    nothing too biased for R15 but I went to Leh on my stock pulsar 150 dtsi (with just a K&N without upjetting...how DUMB of me!!!!)with a load of aprox 28 kgs.
    thou I wud not say tht I was zip-zap-zooming every round and all, but the bike managed ok.
    so R15, wth close to 17 bhp and fuel injections...guess tht wont be a pain ...but guess u r talking about R15 as a delicate DARLING!!!!

    lets see when one does this LEH trip on an R15.
    waiting...but all in all....good photographs....cant resist myself from going to Leh again....
    You are right, I am not talking about its power. Moreover, with its fuel injection and liquid cooling, it fares a lot better than a carburetted engine. The low ground clearance and sporty posture will not be good for the very bad roads, one tends to skid more, with the skinny tyres.

    He owns an R-15.

    The roads they travelled are sometimes no roads.

    Maybe somebody has to ride an R-15 on these roads to prove it.

        @ravi

        its time u show the pic of pagalnalla to ravi uncle and kp.

        but i think R15 could do those roads with a changed tyre and with farings removed!

          Slightly OT:

          Any bike can reach Leh.There are some bike which will do it with ease,others with little hiccups and there will be some more which will somehow reach there.

          For R-1-5 neither the fairing nor the ground clearance(It has one of the best ground clearance) will create any problem.The major problem will be its inability to pull at lower r.p.m's and the unforgiving seating position.
