    Thanks for the knowledge shared throughout..I enjoyed my stay here through all those threads...Will continue reading the magazine..But I bet won't come here and would ever try to discuss over something..Kills time.Kills fun!

    Dude, C'mon show your RTR spirit and race along! I'm sure no one (RTR and R15 owners alike) wants you to leave the forum because of this!
    Cheers!

      R15 owners/supporters- I'm joining your team!

      It really doesn't matter what I own, I would like to be known as a RTR/R15 rider and not as a owner,
      get the drift?

        I voted RTR just because you are into stunting, else R15 without 2nd thoughts

          I had the chance to ride both the bikes on one trip. Both are nice bikes, in the initial gears RTR is more powerful and pulls away from the R15 but it lacks refinement in higher gears whereas the R15 is just too good in higher gears, top end power is awesome and cruising ability is far better than the RTR. Handling wise both are good, R15 is like a pocket rocket, very small found it too small even for my frame being 5' 8". RTR on the other hand is quite ok for tall people too. But if you dont have any problem in spending the extra 30k, my advise would be go for the R15 to experience the excellent quality of Yamaha! Good Luck and Ride Safe.

            I guess I got it long back but, unfortunately, the problem doesn't end with it!

            Not many seem to be interested in facts; people have been arguing over opinions- now, how do we make all xBhpians think alike???

            Anyway, cheers to the biking community! A big cheers to the biking spirit of all the xBhpians! Love you guys!

              Wow!

              It's good to be back..

              Hard to keep my promise..But the new bike (MOJO) attracted me to come back here..and the RTR spirit

              Plus the thing..The rider in me has beaten the owner inside.It always had but this time it just got better...

              Once again,I'd like to apologize to all those who mistook my words..

              Thanks..

              PS: I might be the only bad-mouthed guy here..but I'd love to share(a bit)and gain (a lot) from here..
              If you ride like there's no tomorrow...worry not there won't be!

                          10k?
                          don't you think you've highly exaggerated it?
