The R15 Problems

Mr Tripathi was at his sarcastic best when he said that the R15 has got better technology, two spark plugs are age old technology and the R15 doesnt need it... he also was quick to add, this thing has quality written all over it and "you wont have broken front forks etc on this one" taking a hit at a very popular bike maker... Humara Bajaj ;)

No news about the broken forks yet, but there have been other problems!!!

1) Engine seizure (or Bad Bad Bad service)

We have a seized engine because of no oil being filled in the engine... woah! the forged pistons would make a neat paper weight in such a condition. Nevertheless though its a manual error (or someone trying to mess it up, hope the owner is not a TVS/Bajaj/HH employee ;) )

Strange the bike still ran for 200 Kms with just 100ml oil!



2) A holy molly hot bike (or Bad Bad Bad service)

Now thats a scary sight!


Ladies and Gentlemen a charred R15, imagine that between your legs... woah! Liquid Cooled... Flaming hot!!!

So this is most likely to be an electrical issue as well, so again most likely a manual error!

So what a Oxymoron in life... the product is Quality all over it, and the people selling the product have no know how of how to handle the quality :)
