It means raising the needles in the collaborator to allow a richer fuel to air mixture. When you put on mods that allow more airflow, you have to allow more gas flow as well.

"The new Ninja is fuel-injected in the European and South African markets; a carburetted version has been retained for the United States."
from http://www.motoring.co.za/index.php?...icleId=4331749 So it does not apply to your bike as you have not carbs you have fuel injection, hence why you don't have a choke.
