What Did You Do to Your Ninjette Today ?? - Page 44

Countersteer · April 14th, 2012, 10:35 PM

Today I installed standard (no-rise) Woodcraft clip ons.

This is not for the faint of heart! Bars are now 3.5 inches forward and 5.5 inches lower than stock.

I have more hours in this than I want to admit, and it is still not complete. Functional, but not complete. Fairing mods and final gauge set placement are still needed.

massacremasses · April 16th, 2012, 06:55 AM

washed it

Whiskey · April 16th, 2012, 01:09 PM

Parked up after a 1100+ mile round trip home pics to follow

KURT · April 17th, 2012, 08:15 PM

Sold it.

EthioKnight · April 19th, 2012, 10:18 PM

Changed oil and filter, cleaned and lubed my chain and got to do what I had been hoping for the past week...INSTALL MY HUGGER!!

(This is Scott's newer version in SunBeam Red and Scott, as always, was great to do business with.)

I also replaced the stock oil cap with an aluminum billet one...just for kicks

xSean13 · April 19th, 2012, 10:22 PM

Shimmed the carbs & removed Kleen air system.

cuong-nutz · April 19th, 2012, 11:24 PM

Inflated my tires to 32f/36r.

"A" · April 20th, 2012, 02:12 PM

New tires (went up to a 130/90-16 rear), Russell front brake line, flushed front brake, new front brake pads.

April 20th, 2012, 04:21 PM

Rode it and lubed the chain

thisisbenji · April 20th, 2012, 04:26 PM

Had the snorkel removed and jet kit installed at the shop.

DevinWolfe · April 20th, 2012, 08:39 PM

Added Yoshimura rearset adjusters at the office and came home to my Driven clip-ons so I spent the past 4 hours dicking with those.

Worth it.

pjed · April 21st, 2012, 04:45 PM

Did a trial run of loading both my bikes in the back of my little Dakota. Was a little tricky loading them by myself but actually have a quite a bit of room between the bikes for ramps, gas can, canopy, etc... Can't wait for Monday!

cuong-nutz · April 24th, 2012, 05:29 PM

Wow that's a lot of room. I'm thinking about making a dual motorcycle chock that attaches to the from the bed. I saw one that was made and was purely marvelous.

I hit the rev limiter in 6th gear again this morning on my commute to work. 110 mph indicated.

thisisbenji · April 24th, 2012, 05:48 PM

Took my bike out on the highway for the first time since I got my ZG double bubble. Man, does it make a difference.

Snapped this photo as well.

DevinWolfe · April 24th, 2012, 08:10 PM

We are expecting rain for the next 2 days so I did this:

In order to get to this:

I had orignally only planned to shim the needles and pull the snorkel but when I had such a tough time getting the airbox out I decided I'm not putting it back in. I will go grab the appropriate filters tomorrow and order jets tonight.

EthioKnight · April 25th, 2012, 08:20 PM

Came home to find my Evotech exhaust hanger waiting for me and went ahead and removed those bulky, hideous and impractical (for a solo rider like moi) rear passenger pegs. Top notch quality and in addition to the reduction in weight, it helped clean up the rear of my bike for a more stream lined look. Love it

mar3s24 · April 25th, 2012, 08:45 PM

Got tired of staring at a useless rear pegs. I removed them and made a custom exhaust hanger.

EthioKnight · April 25th, 2012, 09:23 PM

^good one bro, can't say I'm confident of the single support you chose, but I applaud your innovation.

So far it's holding up. No complaints and it holds still. And ummm..I'm not a "bro" hence the name is Mary

choneofakind · April 25th, 2012, 09:33 PM

bro is simply an endearing term, regardless of the gender of the recipient!

lol...that was...um...completely intentional. Call it male egotism, but I always thought you biker chicks, who are some what of a rare breed, liked it when us guys referred to y'all as "bro", thereby giving you gals the stamp of approval and recognition as "real" bikers....but I'm usually wrong in all things "girls", so my apologies

No worries...

I just thought u assumed it was a "guy". I'm tomboy but can be girly when I wanna be. Thanks for the stamp of approval and recognition.

btw: I wanna see how you exhaust hanger looks like

Nevermind, I just scrolled up and saw ur exhaust hanger. Very Nice! I like.

00NissanNinja · April 25th, 2012, 10:09 PM

Added a block off plate for the kleen system, and turned the idle screws to 3 turns out which actually helped my 3 second lag if I don't launch above 4k. This weekend I will drop from 100 mains to 98s (dynojet) and see how the bike runs.

Kirkkis · April 26th, 2012, 12:02 AM

Passed my motorcycle test and rode it for the very first time.

Gorilla25 · April 26th, 2012, 12:14 AM

Installed a CBR hugger. See my blog for details..

If it does move, a second support to the other opening should prevent it from moving. Oh, and maybe a little loc-tite.

cuong-nutz · April 29th, 2012, 12:18 AM

Took it to the track....
washed my gloves and helmet pads...

helmet pads water

gloves water

Countersteer · April 29th, 2012, 03:37 PM

Today I removed the "Ninja" decals from the fairings...what a pain!

I also listed the stock handlebars on eBay:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/290705101547...84.m1555.l2649

As well as a set of Roaring Toyz 1 inch risers:

cuong-nutz · April 29th, 2012, 05:36 PM

I added a few more scratches to the bike from losing it on loose gravel in the parking lot at the track today. I wasn't even going fast. It also bent my shifter so I had to shift it with me heel on the way home. Tore my pants, and scraped my lower knee.

April 29th, 2012, 05:57 PM

Washed it and rode it!!

Hey @mar3s24 where did you get that rim tape? I love it. Do you have a link?

Gorilla25 · May 2nd, 2012, 10:36 PM

DIY Clip-ons

...now that I have your attention, i'll be working on the DIY shortly

Installed the clear/black ninja tank pad! Looks even better in person.

thanks eric! i got them from J3graphix. i had him just extend the white all the way forward.

http://j3graphix.com/ninja2501.htm

Countersteer · May 8th, 2012, 05:33 PM

Definitely like it being extended forward compared to what I see on their site. How much did they charge to extend?

str8t six · May 8th, 2012, 05:37 PM

i really dont remember, but it wasnt much more.
