Welcome to xBhp!
That seems a fine balanced looking version of the R15. Can you please share some more pictures and details with us?Join xBhp On

Thank you. I am sorry for my English, I am still learning, will do my best. Soon I will place some more photos. For now the specs.
This is how the bike looked when I bought it
First I replaced the wheels with bigger ones and Bridgestone BT45 tires. Huge improvement in looks and handling. More stability in corners and huge grip.
The original Vixion has a rear-drumbrake. They dont care much about safety here. I changed this for a rear discbrake from the Suzuki Satria with nissin caliper. Again huge improvement.
I placed the original accessories from Yamaha, adjustable handles.
Not much rain here, so I cut the rear fender.
Then the color. The original color was red with black and some stickers. I really dont like stickers, so I made it clean and changed the color with Metallic White. I like it a lot.
I will do some more modification in the future, but I am really waiting for the Daytona kit for the R15. I dont think it will be available here in Indonesia, so I dont know yet how to get it.
Some more photos

Welcome to Xbhp kaya and glad to have a member from Indonesia
Nice ride you got there.. Looks cool
The Vixion seem to share many parts with the R15 here from the pics you have provided. Even the tail lamp to mention one.Comment

Hey kaya, Welcome to Xbhp.
I liked your choice of colour for your ride, the engine could be powder coated black. It looks a lil plain and simple, may be some decals could be added, nothing too flashy but just rite! Love the mirrors, wish we could get them here. The rear tyre looks good and wide enough comared to the one of the R15 here in India. Do share with us more on the bikes available there. Have Fun!Comment

Thank you all for the great welcome! There are a lot modifications for the outside available here, but not for the performance. So that's all stock. The mirrors are cheap, around US$8.
I have been reading the R15 thread but I cant find photos of the members bikes. I would like to see some R15 heat.Comment
