hey now.... we have seen worse farkles no?

Racer x · April 11th, 2012, 02:07 PM

I am planning to have a swing arm made . No one makes them for a 250 ninja. I was going to contact Frame Crafters when I am ready.

i understand why eric wants an extended swingarm and im cool with that. thats what they are for... but why does the OP want a bigger swingarm? is it really that hard keeping the nose down?

i'm putting a turbo on the bike, and i just think it would help 'pimp' out my ninjette

, plus i want to have 160-70-17 on the bike, right now i have 140-70-17

Racer x · April 12th, 2012, 12:18 PM

I have been looking at turbo charging for a couple years now. I am still working with nitrous for this season. Are you serous us or just wanting it for kicks? It will cost more than a little money to do properly.

i want my ninja to grab people's eyes and draw in attention at auto shows

im getting the best looking one i can get

Racer x · April 15th, 2012, 03:29 AM

OK then go for two turbos and a noss bottle. Can you paint? I would love to see some photos.

TnNinjaGirl · April 15th, 2012, 08:12 AM

Whatever happened to that one guy who was going to turbo his Ninjette for like $3?

Racer x · April 15th, 2012, 08:30 AM

It was 1000 dollars and it has been one year and the thread has gone dead. I think it will cost about 20000 dollars to build a turbo 250 ninja with fuel injection and 60 hp all day. But that is just me. He thinks he can do it and I am always happy to be proven wrong.

But a show bike is a different thing. To have a successful show bike. You have to grab people that are walking through a row of cool bikes. So chrome paint and LOTS of complicated engine stuff sticking out is a winning combination. Not easy to pull off.

choneofakind · April 15th, 2012, 10:29 AM

Heck, I think even a single turbo (that could consistently pull 40+ hp without risk of blowing the engine) with a wicked paint job and EFI would really grab some attention.

Imagine how insane that bike would be if the turbo kicked in at 8k or so. Wicked twisty machine that would be able to rip in a straight line as well (for a 250

)

hmmmmm maybe I'll look into EFI kit eventually, assuming we can get one that actually works and doesn't have quality issues with some of the parts. Once I have an internship and disposable income...

Racer x · April 15th, 2012, 10:52 AM

I am pushing 40 hp with just engine work. I will make 70 with nitrous .So if you go to all the trouble of a turbo it should be at least 60 hp . More than that and you will find out about the clutch.

TnNinjaGirl · April 15th, 2012, 10:54 AM

@RacerX did you ever break the 40hp barrier?

choneofakind · April 15th, 2012, 10:55 AM

oh so you finally got it dyno'd after being broken in? nice! Last I heard was the dyno run that you went easy on because you just had engine work done. I need to keep up on your blog better.

Was looking for swingarms complete with shock and wheel so I organized "swingarm" search results by highest price first and found this:
Ugh.
