Want to change the rear disk..
Binoj
I feel my R15's rear brake is not very effective, when I apply it
pulls my bike to a side. But front brakes are very effective and it
cut down the speed faster than rear brake. Is that a problem that
anybody has faced?
Is it possible to change the disk size to a bigger one? If so where
can I do it in Bangalore and how much would it cost?
Thx

The rear brake in R15 is lesser in effect than the front one, and this is by
design. But it is sufficient for the bike of this weight and speed capacity.
As far as your problem if bike pulling on one side when you apply rear
brakes is an entirely different one, you need to check your rear wheel
balance. The rear wheel disk pad wears out every 5k km on an average, so you
can check the disk pads.
Ideally, if you apply rear brakes hard, the bike should skid in an absolute
straight line, with your complete control over skid direction. I have tried
skidding it left or right, and the bike gives complete control.

Don't think there is any specific problem with r15.check the alingment of your rear wheel and also check if your rear pads have worn out.that might cause the wheels to lock and get out of control.have fun.it's a great bike.

Hi Dheeraj,
I totally agree with you. There is no such problem in the bike.
Rajan, you sold off the bike because of this problem?? Could you please elaborate…
