WHY I HAVE CHOSEN THIS TOPIC?
I have chosen this topic because; I want to know about the IMPACT OF EMPLOYEE
SATISFACTION ON ORGANISATIONAL EFFECTS and Employee has to feel
satisfied with the environment within which they are working. Employee satisfaction is
necessary for the organization because overall growth of the organization is dependent on
employees who are working therein. They must be satisfied with their job, salary,
working condition etc which is providing by the organization to them.
The job occupies an important place in the life of an individual. It is the chief source of satisfaction
of an individual’s satisfaction psychological, biological and social needs. Selection of ob therefore
is a crucial importance to any one.
Employee satisfaction consists of linking for the work involved and acceptance of the pressure and
aspirations connected with the work. It implies the identification of oneself with the requirements
of work involved in the job. All type of work are not impotently satisfying people engaged in the
work which is not satisfying in itself naturally look for satisfaction from the source external it
employee satisfaction. Employee satisfaction given happiness efficiency and success in one’s
professional activity. It represents harmony to the worker and progress to community.
The employee satisfaction plays an important role in the job behavior of an individual. It has been
defined by Gilmer, “Employee satisfaction and dissatisfaction is the result of various attitudes the
person holes towards this job, toward related factors and towards life in general.”
My study is concerned with studying the impact of employee satisfaction at the organizational
performance.
To what extent employees are satisfied with the organizational practices at YAHAMA. What are
the various facilities and provisions provided by the organization that motivate the employees and
affect their performance level?
What are the positive points of the organization responsible for making the employees satisfaction
level and what is the impact of those points on organizational and individual performance.
To recommend the changes in present organization practices to increase the satisfaction level of
employees and ultimately performance.
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
The literature review is a critical look at the existing research that is significant to the work that the
researcher carries out. Keeping in mind that the literature review should provide the context for the
present research by looking at what work has already done in the present research area.
The first survey of its kind in India discovers that while call center employees may be more
satisfied than IT pros that satisfaction rapidly decreases with experience promising high attrition.
And that high stress and work-related ailment are a workplace reality
They are all over the place. At dingy placement consultants’ offices—being reprimanded for
saying yel, yum and yen (instead of l, m and n). At air-conditioned call center test rooms being
checked out for their ability to sound pleasant on the phone. At city college campuses—arguing
if Convergys was a better bet or GE.
If this were an age in which pioneers were easily born, one would say they looked a lot like those
who hotfooted it to California during the gold rush days. The stereotypes are different of course.
That was a bearded, scraggly, more often middle-aged man. This is a smart, clean, well-dressed
person—mostly young enough to be called lad or lassie.
Beyond the looks though, there are surprising similarities. For both the Californian gold-digger and
the call center employee it is about what the West called "easy money". If one said, "I isn’t got what
it takes to be a Senator," the other says, "I really don’t want to put in what it takes to be an
engineer." If one was in it for the wide-open spaces, the other is in it for enclosed, air-conditioned
partitions (read work environment).
That may have been fine if the similarities ended there. They don’t. Both classes of people may
have changed the face of a state or a nation, but both have found that it isn’t easy money. That being
a gold digger or a voice-for-hire requires a completely different kind of perseverance. That too
much of gold dust or too much of re-circulated air takes its toll on people.
DQ-IDC’s BPO Employees’ Satisfaction Survey 2003 is the first ever of its kind in the country. It
looks at why people join the industry, why they leave, what work-related stress and ailments they
suffer from in this unique workplace and most of all—at what they have to say about the companies
they work for. In short, it takes the closest look ever at the HR environment of this nascent but
quickly growing sector.
The study recognizes individual recognition and growth opportunities provided by global service
providers to their employees. A company statement said that customers’' employee empowerment
agenda reached a new high, and attrition rates continued to fall.
Congratulating all the employees of customers, Sanjay Kumar, Founder & CEO said, "It's clear
that our initiatives aimed at achieving employee satisfaction have been successful". He added that,
"Winning the No.1 ranking in ESAT for the second year in a row when competing with some of
the largest global brands is a true testimonial to our strong commitment towards our Employee
First initiatives."
One of the key highlights in the race to the top has been customer’s ability to automate employee
processes by migrating all employee queries and grievances to an online forum, thus leading to
greater transparency, faster resolution and improving the overall employee experience.
A substantial investment in employee training – both behavioral and skills – helped employees
move up the value chain, significantly pushing the employee satisfaction index. customers also
provides trainings targeted towards employees' health & wellness. Quarterly health camps are
organized where every employee can get a health checkup done free of cost.
The annual DQ-IDC INDIA BPO ESAT SURVEY revealed that the employee satisfaction scores
in 2008 for customers were substantially higher than the competition on all the broad employee
satisfaction measures. The survey rated companies on 12 key parameters: Employee Size,
Percentage of last salary hike, Cost to company, Overall Satisfaction Score, Company Image,
Company Culture, Job Content or Growth, Training, Salary and Compensation, Appraisal System,
People and Preferred Company.
Conceptualization
WHY STUDY ABOUT THE EMPLOYEE SATISFACTION-----in my point of view, study of
"Employee satisfaction" helps the company to maintain a standards & increase productivity by
motivating the employees. This study tells us how much the employees are capable & their interest
at wok place? What are the things still to be satisfy to the employees. Although "human resource"
is the most important resources for any organization, so to study on employee’s satisfaction helps
to know the working conditions & what are the things that affect them not to work properly.
Always majority of done by the machines/equipments but without any manual moments nothing
can be done. So to study on employee satisfaction is necessary.
Employee satisfaction and retention have always been important issues for physicians. After all,
high levels of absenteeism and staff turnover can affect your bottom line, as temps, recruitment and
retraining take their toll. But few practices (in fact, few organizations) have made job satisfaction a
top priority, perhaps because they have failed to understand the significant opportunity that lies in
front of them. Satisfied employees tend to be more productive, creative and committed to their
employers, and recent studies have shown a direct correlation between staff satisfaction and patient
satisfaction.1 Family physicians who can create work environments that attract, motivate and retain
hard-working individuals will be better positioned to succeed in a competitive health care
environment that demands quality and cost-efficiency. What's more, physicians may even discover
that by creating a positive workplace for their employees, they've increased their own job
satisfaction as well.
Employee’s satisfaction: This is not an easy area to tackle. There are few organizations
where most of the employees are satisfied. Human mind is not satisfied with what it has
achieved and therefore to expect that employees will be satisfied with certain facilities is
far from being true; however the organization must collect feedbacks through
formal/informal assessment methods and relate these findings to identify improvement
priorities. This will at least make the employees feel that management is sincere.
Organization is nothing but a group of people whose activities have been planned &
coordinated to meet organization objectives. An organization that exists to produce & services has
a good chance to service & prosper it. It consists of right people.
The vast majority of people work to support themselves & their families. But people work
for many other reasons other than economic security e.g. many also work to keep busy & feel
useful, to create & achieve something. They want to gain recognition & achiever status or to test &
stretch their capabilities. To meet these multifarious needs, people & organization join forces.
The biggest challenge to the manager is to make all employees contribute to the success of
the organization in an ethical & socially responsible way. The society well-being, to a large extend
depends on its organization particularly business organization. It is the business organization
which makes goods & service available, provided job, generate wealth & land stability & security
to the people.
To assist employees in achieving their personal goals, at least in so for as these goals
enhance the individual’s contribution to the organization. Personal objective of employees must be
met if workers leave the organization is to be maintained retained & motivated. Otherwise,
employee performance & satisfaction may decline & employee may leave the organization.
Human resource is the important factor of the organization. If this factor is not satisfied or not
work properly then organization cannot achieve their target.
Employees are the most valuable assets of an organization there should be a conscious
effort to realize goals by satisfying needs and aspiration of employees.
Organization must meet their goals by which employees feel satisfied in their work lines
due to the key strength of the company determined by the human power of the organization.
Basically two types of functions performed by HR Manager these are operative &
managerial both functions are helpful to get the employee satisfaction working in the company.
FUNCTION OF HRM

SATISFACTION

Working Conditions
High employee satisfaction levels can reduce employee turnover. Dissatisfied employees
tend to perform below their capabilities, result in high turnover of staff and leave their jobs
relatively quickly and are not very likely to recommend the company as an employer.
Employee satisfaction research give employees ‘a voice’ and also allow the pinpointing of
problematic areas leading to the raising of staff satisfaction levels, developing and reviewing
of staff management and optimizing corporate communication.
Opportunity
Stress
Leadership
Work Standards
Fair Rewards
Adequate authority
Research done by various researcher shows that satisfied, motivated employees will create higher
customer satisfaction and in turn positively influence organizational performance. Noticing this
trend, many organizations are investing in measuring and quantifying employee’s opinions and
attitudes by incorporating Employees Satisfaction Surveys into their existing HR and
organizational processes.
Employee is one of the most important elements among various resources of production
in an organisation. Hence their involvement with organisational processes and system is
most important. And thus, while performing their task their wholesome dedication and
commitment with their work is desirable.
Employee has to feel satisfied with the environment within which they work for it would
result in high productivity. When administrative policies and all-important
announcements are communicated to the employees, it boosts their morale. The methods
chosen for communication also play an integral role. Some of the methods that could be
used are intranet, monthly newsletters, weekly meetings etc.
Herzberg's theory
In the late 1950s, Frederick Herzberg, considered by many to be a pioneer in motivation theory,
interviewed a group of employees to find out what made them satisfied and dissatisfied on the job.
He asked the employees essentially two sets of questions:
1. Think of a time when you felt especially good about your job. Why did you feel that way?
2. Think of a time when you felt especially bad about your job. Why did you feel that way?
From these interviews Herzberg went on to develop his theory that there are two dimensions to job
satisfaction: motivation and "hygiene" ("Two dimensions of employee satisfaction"). Hygiene
issues, according to Herzberg, cannot motivate employees but can minimize dissatisfaction, if
handled properly. In other words, they can only dissatisfy if they are absent or mishandled.
Hygiene topics include company policies, supervision, salary, interpersonal relations and working
conditions. They are issues related to the employee's environment. Motivators, on the other hand,
create satisfaction by fulfilling individuals' needs for meaning and personal growth. They are
issues such as achievement, recognition, the work itself, responsibility and advancement. Once the
hygiene areas are addressed, said Herzberg, the motivators will promote job satisfaction and
encourage production.
To apply Herzberg's theory to real-world practice, let's begin with the hygiene issues. Although
hygiene issues are not the source of satisfaction, these issues must be dealt with first to create an
environment in which employee satisfaction and motivation are even possible.
Supervision. To decrease dissatisfaction in this area, you must begin by making wise decisions
when you appoint someone to the role of supervisor. Be aware that good employees do not always
make good supervisors. The role of supervisor is extremely difficult. It requires leadership skills
and the ability to treat all employees fairly. You should teach your supervisors to use positive
feedback whenever possible and should establish a set means of employee evaluation and feedback
so that no one feels singled out.
Think of a time when you felt especially Salary. The old adage "you get what you pay for"
good about your job. Why did you feel that tends to be true when it comes to staff members.
way? Salary is not a motivator for employees, but they do
want to be paid fairly. If individuals believe they are not compensated well, they will be unhappy
working for you. Consult salary surveys or even your local help-wanted ads to see whether the
salaries and benefits you're offering are comparable to those of other offices in your area. In
addition, make sure you have clear policies related to salaries, raises and bonuses.
Interpersonal relations. Remember that part of the satisfaction of being employed is the social
contact it brings, so allow employees a reasonable amount of time for socialization (e.g., over
lunch, during breaks, between patients). This will help them develop a sense of camaraderie and
teamwork. At the same time, you should crack down on rudeness, inappropriate behavior and
offensive comments. If an individual continues to be disruptive, take charge of the situation,
perhaps by dismissing him or her from the practice.
Working conditions. The environment in which people work has a tremendous effect on their
level of pride for themselves and for the work they are doing. Do everything you can to keep your
equipment and facilities up to date. Even a nice chair

psyche. Also, if possible, avoid overcrowding and
allow each employee his or her own personal space, whether it be a desk, a locker, or even just a
drawer. If you've placed your employees in close quarters with little or no personal space, don't be
surprised that there is tension among them.
Before you move on to the motivators, remember that you cannot neglect the hygiene factors
discussed above. To do so would be asking for trouble in more than one way. First, your
employees would be generally unhappy, and this would be apparent to your patients. Second, your
hardworking employees, who can find jobs elsewhere, would leave, while your mediocre
employees would stay and compromise your practice's success. So deal with hygiene issues first,
then move on to the motivators:
Work itself. Perhaps most important to employee motivation is helping individuals believe that the
work they are doing is important and that their tasks are meaningful. Emphasize that their
contributions to the practice result in positive outcomes and good health care for your patients.
Share stories of success about how an employee's actions made a real difference in the life of a
patient, or in making a process better. Make a big

ordinary, such as new-baby visits. Of course Frederick Herzberg theorized that employee
employees may not find all their tasks interesting or satisfaction depends on two sets of issues:
rewarding, but you should show the employee how "hygiene" issues and motivators. Once the
those tasks are essential to the overall processes that hygiene issues have been addressed, he

should also receive regular, timely feedback on how they are doing and should feel they are being
adequately challenged in their jobs. Be careful, however, not to overload individuals with
challenges that are too difficult or impossible, as that can be paralyzing.
Recognition. Individuals at all levels of the organization want to be recognized for their
achievements on the job. Their successes don't have to be monumental before they deserve
recognition, but your praise should be sincere. If you notice employees doing something well, take
the time to acknowledge their good work immediately. Publicly thank them for handling a
situation particularly well. Write them a kind note of praise. Or give them a bonus, if appropriate.
You may even want to establish a formal recognition program, such as "employee of the month."
Responsibility. Employees will be more motivated to do their jobs well if they have ownership of
their work. This requires giving employees enough freedom and power to carry out their tasks so
that they feel they "own" the result. As individuals mature in their jobs, provide opportunities for
added responsibility. Be careful, however, that you do not simply add more work. Instead, find
ways to add challenging and meaningful work, perhaps giving the employee greater freedom and
authority as well.
Advancement. Reward loyalty and performance with advancement. If you do not have an open
position to which to promote a valuable employee, Employees will be more motivated to do

support employees by allowing them to pursue further education, which will make them more
valuable to your practice and more fulfilled professionally.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Research is an art of scientific investigation, the pursuit of truth with the help of study,
current English, lays down the meaning of research as a careful investigation or inquiry
especially through search for new facts in any branch of knowledge. Some people
consider research as a movement, a movement from the known to the unknown. It is
variables and to drive explanations and thus enables us to have a better understanding of
the world in which we live. It aims at developing new tools, concepts and theories for a
studies the various steps that are adopted to the research problem. In research
methodology we not only consider the research method but also the logic behind the
Types of research:-
i) Descriptive:- Descriptive research includes surveys and fact-findings enquiries
of different kind. The major purpose of descriptive research is description of the
state of affairs as it exists at present. The main characteristics of this method are
that the researcher has no control over the variables; he can only report what
has happened or what is happening.
ii) Analytical:- In Analytical research, the researcher has to use facts or
information already available, and analyze these to make a critical evaluation of
material.
iii) Applied:- It aims at findings a solution for an immediate problem facing a
society or an organization/business organization.
iv) Fundamental:- Fundamental research is mainly concerned with generalizations
and with the formulation of a theory
v) Quantitative:- It is based on the measurement of quantity or amount. It is
applicable to phenomena that can be expressed in terms of quantity.
vi) Qualitative:- It is concerned with qualitative phenomenon, i.e., phenomena
relating to or involving quality or kind. For instance, when we are interested in
investigating the reasons for human behavior (i.e. why people think or do
certain things), we quite often talk of ‘Motivation Research’, an important type
of qualitative research.
vii) Conceptual:- Conceptual research is that related to some abstract idea(s) or
theory. It is generally used by philosophers and thinkers tp develop new
concepts or to reinterpret existing ones.
viii) Empirical:- Empirical research relies on experience or observation alone, often
without due regard for system and theory. It is data-based research, coming up
with conclusions which are capable of being verified by observation or
experiment.
Research Design:-
A research design is the arrangement of conditions for collection and analysis of data in a manner
that aims to combine relevance to the research purpose with economy in procedure. In fact, the
research design is the conceptual structure within which research is conducted; it constitutes the
blueprint for the collection, measurement and analysis of data.
In this study Descriptive research studies is used because descriptive research studies are those
studies which are concerned with describing the characteristics of a particular individual, or a
group and situation etc. and in this report the descriptive research design is used to find out the
satisfaction level of employees.
The design in such studies must focus attention on the following or process in descriptive research
design is as follows:-
(a) Formulating the objective of the study.
(b) Designing the methods of data collection.
(c) Selecting the sample
(d) Collecting the data.
(e) Processing and analyzing the data.
(f) Reporting the findings.
Process of research
There is no consensus about how to conceptualize the actual undertaking of research. There are,
however, two main traditions of approaching a research topic – quantitative and qualitative. Each
approach demands different research methods.
• Quantitative research
The quantitative approach usually starts with a theory or a general statement proposing a
general relationship between variables. With this approach it is likely that the researchers
will take an objective position and their approach will be to treat phenomena as hard and
real. They will favour methods such as surveys and experiments, and will attempt to test
hypotheses or statements with a view to generalizing from the particular. This approach
typically concentrates on measuring or counting and involves collecting and analyzing
numerical data and applying statistical tests.
• Qualitative research
The alternative tradition is the qualitative approach. Here the investigator views the
phenomena to be investigated as more personal and softer. He or she will use methods such
as personal accounts, unstructured interviews and participant observation to gain an
understanding of the underlying reasons and motivations for peoples’ attitudes, preferences
or behaviors. With this approach, the emphasis is more on generating hypotheses from the
data collection rather than testing a hypothesis.
In reading around the subject you will find many alternative names for qualitative and
quantitative research. It is good to have an understanding of these and to recognize them
when you see them in research methods textbooks.
The features and differences between the two research processes are detailed below.You should
note the following points:
• Qualitative and quantitative research methods are not clear-cut nor mutually exclusive –
most research draws on both methods.
• The difference between the two methods is in the overall form and in the emphasis and
objectives of the study.
Outcome of research
• Applied research
Applied research is problem-oriented as the research is carried out to solve a specific problem that
requires a decision, for example, the improvement of safety in the workplace, or market research.
For your dissertation it is not usually acceptable to carry out applied research as it is very much
limited to one establishment or company and you are required to look at issues of wider
significance, perhaps to your industry as a whole or to a sector of it. You may have already carried
out a problem-based piece of research related to your placement. It is important to understand that
the dissertation requires you to carry out some form of basic research – see below.
• Basic research
Basic research is also called fundamental or pure research, and is conducted primarily to
improve our understanding of general issues, without any emphasis on its immediate
application. It is regarded as the most academic form of research since the principal aim is
to make a contribution to knowledge, usually for the general good, rather than to solve a
specific problem for one organisation. This may take the form of the following:
o Discovery – where a totally new idea or explanation emerges from empirical
research which may revolutionise thinking on that particular topic. An example of
this would be the Hawthorne experiments. (Gillespie, 1991)
For an undergraduate dissertation it is most likely that you will be concentrating on reflection, as
the scope of the project is unlikely to be large enough to consider discovery or invention.
• Action research
This is a form of research where action is both an outcome and a part of the research. The
researcher ‘interferes’ with or changes – deliberately – what is being researched. The
critics of action research argue that since the researcher is changing what is being
researched during the process of research, the work cannot be replicated. If it cannot be
replicated its findings cannot be tested in other situations. This prevents general knowledge
being developed and thus it cannot contribute to theory. Also, as the researcher is involved
in the change process there is a loss of critical, detached objectivity. There are two
approaches to action research:
o Classical action research begins with the idea that if you want to understand
something you should try changing it.
• While the purpose of your dissertation may have some elements of exploratory or
descriptive research you should concentrate on research that will mainly fall into the
explanatory area, or perhaps predictive research if you are very confident. Explanatory
research gives you the opportunity to demonstrate the skills of analysis and evaluation
which will help you to score highly in your final marks.
• The process of your research can either be quantitative or qualitative and the different
methods that can help you to carry out your research in this way are outlined more fully in
Unit 3.
• It is likely that you will be carrying out basic or pure research in the reflection mode (rather
than applied or action research) as this will give you the best chance of showing that you
can test out a theory in a new situation.
• Primary data
• Secondary data
In all two approaches were adopted to collect data and information regarding this study.
The strategy applied was to have a wide coverage of the organization, and at the same
time, ensure an in-depth perspective of the study.
The first step involved the administering of the various questionnaires to the relevant
people within the organization, of different department and designation.
The second step was the collection of data from documents and manuals, which provided
the details of HR matters, training and its programs, and requisite organizational
information pertinent to the study.
In the present study, primary as well as secondary data has been used.
Sample Design:-
In most of the research design it becomes almost impossible to examine the entire universe. So the
only alternative is to report to sampling. This is true for the present study as well. Basic principles
to be followed in sampling are that the sample chosen must be representative of entire universe to
be studied.
Sampling plan
For the conducting this study the following sampling plan was used and the sample was randomly
selected.
It comprised of:-
100 employees which included:
Sample Size:-
In this present study we have taken the sample size of 50 employees to get their views regarding
how much they are much satisfied with their job, training provided to them for their future growth
and other facilities provided to them.
Sampling Method:-
Yamaha made its initial foray into India in 1985. Subsequently, it entered into a 50:50 joint venture

Service / Technical
Stroke: Single direction movement of the piston, when the piston moves up from BDC to TDC or
TDC to BDC, the single direction movement of the Piston in one direction is called 'Stroke'.
Effect of bore and stroke on engine performance: Engines of the same displacement vary in
character depending on "bore and stroke".
Short stroke engines: Stroke is smaller than bore diameter. Square engines: Stroke and bore
diameter are even. Long stroke engines: Stroke is larger than bore diameter.
Compared with a long stroke engine, the square or short stroke type is easy to raise the engine
speed and develop high power. If the engine speeds are the same, the piston speed is slower and
friction resistance can also be reduced. Among other merits are the lower overall height and
compact design. Therefore, the square type and short stroke engines are dominant.
Displaced Volume: The compression ratio indicates to what extent the air - fuel mixture is
compressed when piston is at TDC.
Combustion Chamber volume: The volume of space between the cylinder head and the piston at
TDC is called "combustion chamber volume".
Compression ratio: The compression ratio indicates to what extent the air - fuel mixture is
compressed when piston is at TDC in compression stroke.
The higher Compression ratio is used for High speed Vehicles.
Compression Ratio:
Volume of Combustion chamber (v) + Displacement (v) divided by
Volume of Combustion chamber (v)
Torque : The turning force exerted on rotating parts is called “torque”. Motorcycles are driven by
the torque of the crankshaft.
Change in torque (Primary and secondary reductions, and speed reduction from the gear box).
The greater the number of gear teeth, the greater the torque. However, the rotational speed is
reduced.
The “maximum torque” is indicated along with the engine speed at which maximum torque is
delivered.
When a motorcycle is run at maximum torque, the rear wheel driving force is at the maximum.
Difference between BHP (Brake Horse power) & PS (Pfred Scale): Both are the unit of Power
1 Bhp = 1.0143 Ps
Single Over Head Cam Shaft (SOHC): In this type of Cam Mechanism, Cam shaft is positioned in
the cylinder head & driven by Cam Chain to operate Inlet & exhaust valve thru Rocker arms.
In this type mechanism lesser parts are used to operate valves hence operation is stable even at
high speed.
Trochoid Type Oil Pump: Two rotors rotating at different Speeds causing variations in the volume
between them. This Variation in volume causes oil flow in and out of the Pump. The Trochoid
Pump is more commonly used due to its advantages and compact design.
Four Stroke Engine
Basic construction: A 4-stroke engine requires two complete revolution of the crankshaft (4 strokes
of the piston) to complete a full cycle (Intake, Compression, Combustion and Exhaust).
Power stoke: A power stroke takes place on every other full rotation of the crankshaft. The
cylinder head has two ports. An intake and an exhaust. Valves control the opening and closing of
these ports. The opening and closing of the valves is timed to piston movement and location in its
travel.
In order to lessen the vibration a balancer weight is added on a axis positioned at an angle above
Crank Shaft and made to rotate in the opposite direction of Crank Shaft to reduce engine
vibrations.
Wet Sump system: Oil is stored in the oil sump in bottom of crank case, from here oil is pumped
under pressure to various parts of the Engine. Oil is fed to both the Crank Shaft & Valve Train.
The Crank Shaft assembly is lubricated with the same oil used to lubricate the Transmission &
Clutch .The oil is fed directly from the Oil Pump. The Cylinder & Piston are lubricated by splash
oil that previously lubricated the Crank pin & connecting rods. The Valve Train is also lubricated
by Pressure fed oil. After lubrication, the oil returns to the sump (Oil Chamber).
Diamond Frame: In this type of Frame the Engine is mounted at five locations (One at the top &
two each at the front & rear of the Crank cases) and used as a stressed member of the frame for
better stability, less vibrations & light weight The large size & thickness of the main pipe provide
extra rigidity.
What is BS type Carburetor and what is the benefit of that for the user?
The BS carburetor (‘B’ stands for butterfly valve and ‘S’ for SU, designating the maker Skinner
Union.)
In this type of the Carburetor, the air-fuel mixture is controlled by the regulation of the Engine
Intake vacuum (negative pressure) which results in smooth operation of the vehicle, stable idling &
good fuel economy.
Also due to this carburetor, the user gets smooth acceleration, even if the rider opens or closes the
throttle sharply.
YTPS technology and its benefit: Yamaha Throttle position sensor (YTPS) is a unit fitted on the
carburetor on same axis of Butterfly valve.
It is adopted in order to control the ignition timing for each engine RPM. This helps to ensure
excellent combustion efficiency and hence smooth throttle response, superior fuel economy and
less emissions.
With the use of YTPS technology, 3- dimensional digital mapping has been done among, engine
revolution, ignition timing and throttle opening for optimum combustion their by ensuring
maximum mileage.

Concept
The YZF-R1 and YZF-R6 are equipped with under cowls that are based on the image of a diffuser,
to give them the best form for aero-management. These are not cowls for simply enclosing the
engine, but forms composed of blade surfaces that actively control airflow. This spirit has been
directly inherited by the YZF-R15.
“Harmony between rider and machine.” YAMAHA's Human Technology involves studying the
form of the motorcycle actually in motion with the rider on it. The R series is the embodiment of 1)
a wide frontal space that protects the rider, 2) an easy to ride seating area that gives riders the
freedom of movement and allows them to steer effectively, 3) the glamorous tail treatment that
takes into account the management of airflow behind the rider, and 4) a sensual racing form that
brings all 3 of these elements together in a harmonious package. These characteristics have been
splendidly reproduced in the YZF-R15.
Additionally, the designs were developed in the same modeling room where YZF-R1 designers
worked. Information was shared, ensuring that the R lineage would be transmitted. In addition, the
model also incorporates a multitude of adjustments for the Indian market including seat shape that
allows for tandem riding (integrated with the main seat), tandem grips that are easy to grip and also
contribute to the supersport design, and a riding position that takes into account comfort, etc. In
other words, the YZF-R15 is characterized by a hybrid design that combines the world-class
design of the “R” series with localized functions. The YZF-R15 was created to lead the supersport
category in India.
During the 1920s, cars exhibited design refinements such as balloon tires, pressed-steel
wheels, and four-wheel brakes.
The automobile industry has changed the way people live and
work. The earliest of modern cars was manufactured in the year 1895. Shortly the first appearance
of the car followed in India. As the century truned, three cars were imported in Mumbai (India).
Within decade there were total of 1025 cars in the city.
The dawn of automobile actually goes back to 4000 years when the first wheel was used for
transportation in India. In the begining of 15th century Portuguese arrived in China and the
interaction of the two cultures led to a variety of new technologies, including the creation of a
wheel that turned under its own power. By 1600s small steam-powered engine models was
developed, but it took another century before a full-sized engine-powered vehicle was created.
During the 1920s, the cars exhibited design refinements such as balloon tires, pressed-steel wheels,
and four-wheel brakes. Graham Paige DC Phaeton of 1929 featured an 8-cylinder engine and an
aluminum body.
The 1937 Pontiac De Luxe sedan had roomy interior and rear-hinged back door that suited more to
the needs of families. In 1930s, vehicles were less boxy and more streamlined than their
predecessors. The 1940s saw features like automatic transmission, sealed-beam headlights, and
tubeless tires.

Technology aims
The YZF-R15 is the first India-made motorcycle in this class to mount a liquid cooling system for
higher engine performance. When the engine is running the combustion in the cylinders heats up
the engine. But if the engine gets too hot it loses power. If the engine remains hot for a long time,
that causes slight distortion in the engine parts that in turn reduces the gaps between the moving
parts. That is why an effective cooling system is necessary to cool down the engine parts and the
lubricating oil. There are two kinds of cooling systems: air cooling, which uses the running air
flow to cool the engine, and liquid cooling that circulates coolant fluid through passages around the
engine. Most automobiles have a liquid cooling system. But, because of the additional parts
required, it can make the engine heavier. But, because the system adds some weight to the
machine, liquid cooling has not been use on 100 to 225cc class motorcycles in the past.
Mechanism
A liquid cooling system uses a web of passages around the cylinder to circulate coolant through.
When the temperature of the coolant around the engine rises, it is sent to the radiator (a heat
dissipating tank) to be cooled by running air flow or an electric fan and then circulated back to the
engine. This constant circulation of coolant constantly cools the engine.
