    But are they good enough to measure timings and speeds? I have the Nokia N82 (poor man's N95) and at times, its speed readings go waay out of the charts. I heard it is always better to use dedicated GPS devices.

      What do you guys think of this.

      LED Tail Light for R-15 - xBhp Classifieds : Buy & Sell

      I just want to know if this is going to affect the bike's performance, battery or electrical system in any way.

      If encouraged, I will buy this the next thing after I get my bike.

          The LED tailight has been designed keeping the power load requirements in mind. It wont add any load to your bike's electrical system.

                    First of all, congrats for choosing a race machine.
                    Well, I used to think like this... if its Yamaha it has to be Blue.....but sometime back I just happen to recollect that Rossi actually raced in a Yellow M1 few years ago...(Remember Camel Yamaha Team?)
                    Yes, Yellow indeed looks fantastic and gorgeous and it just stands out from rest of the blue R15s...

                    I've test ridden R-15 and the moment my feet were on the foot pegs and hands on the handle bars, I thought I 've transformed to Rossi....adrenaline pumped inside me when I revved it up and shifted to sixth...

                    Lucky you if you are going for one... Good luck and dont rev too much for first 1 or 1.5k kms...

                              Anyway, good choice You can check my album for a few pics of the taxi (yellow r15)
                              You were right, the modifications are not even on the back of my mind right now. I'm too busy admiring the original.

                                The run in period is VERY frustrating. The bike is raring to go, almost in a mocking way, as if it knows you cannot.

                                Fellow R15 owners, I empathize with you guys.
