I have a different idea regarding black on the hanger, but you'll have to wait and see!

psych0hans · June 1st, 2012, 12:07 PM

So... Today I bought a set of replacement ballasts and managed to get one of my lights back on... Will take it to a pro to check what's wrong with the other one... Also need to get my lights pointing in the right direction...

I think if you attach a nice set of spectacles to your headlights, everything will be A-OK!

Put on a Driven aluminum 46 tooth sprocket...man, that thing is way lighter than stock. Got a track day tomorrow so really curious to see what it does.

NJ Ninjette · June 3rd, 2012, 04:43 PM

Finished up my DIY Fender Elimination and cleaned up my rear wheels (yet again) from the horrible chain lube the dealer used.

Only if I had gotten this advice earlier... It would be so much easier...

But since I could not use this advice, I did go to a pro and it basically boiled down to bad wiring... Got that fixed and my bike can finally see with both eyes

and in the right direction to boot

cuong-nutz · June 5th, 2012, 09:29 PM

Found a nail in my tire after I got to work....held air on the way home from work... New rear tire came in after I got home.

nickjpass · June 6th, 2012, 10:10 PM

Tried to take the Gas Cap off my dirt bike today. It won't budge... any ideas? How can one ride, if thou can't add gas (woah old english throwback)?

Dude..... that nail was the least of your worries. lol

That tire should have been replaced miles ago...

uncle hilty · June 7th, 2012, 08:35 AM

Yesterday i put on some Progrip 719 gel grips using the hairspray/no bar end take off method. Thanks ninjette.org for the info!!! All you guys are awsome and your wisdom and experience really help those of us who are mechanically challenged.

Ride on!

Oh I do, but it I have a tendency to push the limits some

Just did an oil change. I'm about 4k since last oil change. I'm going to see if I can send off my oil to get it tested.

And then some, honestly. The Double Bubble was the best mod I'v done to my ninjette. I adds a ton of comfort if you spend any sort of time above 45 mph.

I do wish I would have gone with a clear one instead of dark smoke though.

thisisbenji · June 8th, 2012, 08:59 PM

I put some Rotella T6 in my bike today. Is it me or does it downshift better?

ichibunkid.206 · June 8th, 2012, 09:02 PM

Gonna be a busy week-end putting on my new Vortex clip-on's, Driven D3 grips, and a set of adjustable lever ebay knock-off

Any advantage to the vortex clip-ons vs driven or woodcraft?

PsHYk · June 8th, 2012, 10:25 PM

I assure you, every time I put the key in my bike the oil and coolant light come on, then they turn off when I start it.

Asspire · June 9th, 2012, 07:42 PM

I Freaking Hate That Air Box!!!!1!!!!

Also gauges worked out better than I planned. Now I gotta find a dyno around here.

They are Woodcraft's, just the standard 37mm versions.

Yeah. I meant "generic" as in "not bike-specific."

Anyway, are you recommending those over Vortex or the 250-specific set? Those require modification for most people.

Countersteer · June 10th, 2012, 04:12 PM

...and the mod's are bit involved too. But, if you want a "supersport" type riding position it's the only way to go!
