What Did You Do to Your Ninjette Today ??

[crazymadbastard]

Installed ex500 cutch perch and Shorty adjustable silver levers, changed oil and filter w/t6. Changing to flushmounts tomorrow and taking her for a small 1/4 mile drive up and down my street. Got insurance but still need to get to DMV to register and get my test done. :-)

[antiant]

Installed Yoshimura swingarm spools.

Well I did say I'd get another bike. I don't think I mentioned that I was keeping the 300 after all.

[crazymadbastard]

Made flushmount spacers out of Plexiglas and painted them black.

[LNasty]

Just put 15 t sprocket on the front and this is by far the best mod I have done yet. I love it!

[antiant]

Took it out for a mini-ride, where I attempted to kick the winds ass. I veered off a little on the shoulder, but saved it fine. I did a lot better this time around.

[notsofast]

Started her for the first time!!!
So far my work has paid off (thank you to those who provided guidance and suggestions). I just need to adjust the idle and probably lube the cables a bit.

[LNasty]

Side note....I tried putting sun star sprocket on with the emblem on the inside with the protrusion facing in but would not go on that way. So I had to put on with emblem facing out, hope that doesn't mess anything up

[rcruz17]

Made a DIY on EBay Spools!

Did my first Oil change hopefully weather is nice tomorrow to get it inspected.




Im waiting on Nose fairing to replace it next weekend hopefully maybe in two weeks time she'll earn her first wash

Your supposed to take the old and new sprokets and lay them on a flat surface and compare the teeth offset, if the new sprocket doesn't match try flipping it. If the new sprocket doesn't match the OEM in ether direction then its not right. I'm sure your just fine though

[rojoracing53]

Typical ride it to work plus admiring my rear road winner tire. This thing has 1800 miles on it with three 200+ mile canyon riders at a very fast pace and you can hardly see any where


My front on the other hand is in its last leg, I might get another 500 miles out of it but ill be easing off in the corners a bit.

[lgk]

Those roadwinners are pretty hard, lol.

I got close to 12,000MI on mine

I'm going to keep beating the **** out of mine till the edges are gone. I'm going for the first pair of road winners to never get squared off

[TheDementedDrummer]

How do you guys get so much out of your RoadWinners?
I got like 5000 or so before the rear hit the wear bars.

We don't use the back brake

thats going to be a real challenge.

there's your sign.

any other tire would last less than 3000mi.

Rode to work just because it is ride to work day.

[dave42]

I did some gymkhana drills on our 250 last night after getting tired of having my right wrist jammed into the gas tank repeatedly on my 600 when I'm turning at close to full lock. Man I need some bar risers.

Forgot how easily the 250 turns. Also forgot how much I had to crank the throttle for power to kick in while I'm leaned over. Fun stuff.

[iplante]

Reinstalled the ventura rack and went for a ride

[Dano]

Got my new SS Brake lines and Uni filter in the mail. Ordered some Chinese shorty levers..

[BRad704]

I love my Chinese shorty levers!

Yesterday I shimmed the needles and removed the snorkel.
Today I cleaned the chain and rode around for some errands at lunch.

[choneofakind]

• added a zip-tie to my forks so I can see how far they compress
• Checked my head for slop
• 'reset' my forks by loosening the triples, kicking them, then tightening them
• Checked my rear wheel alignment with the string method
• added some slack to my chain
• cleaned/lubed my chain
• added a little oil
• checked coolant and brake fluid levels
• lubed throttle cable
• checked all my EFI hose connections (tightened clamps) for sanity
• removed mirrors and turn signals
• adjusted tire pressure
• removed license plate

All I need to do still is tape of lights, tape wheel weights, use RTV on the oil fill caps and the oil drain bolt, pull some fuses, remove the passenger pegs, and put the fairings back on, and she's ready for track time this weekend!!!

[Kokosun]

Put on a new set of Pirelli Sport Demons. Was surprised that the (miniscule) extra ride height makes a difference. Seems to tip into corners a little quicker. I'll have to put a few miles on her to get used to the slight change in CoG.

[Racer x]

I took my bike to work so I can weld the frame.

[rcruz17]

went for a 50mile drive woo bike shakes above 60MPH any ideas what to look for?

found a modified stock can on ebay and spray painted it black and threw it on today. $30 think it was worth it

Just a wild guess here but it may shake a bit more if you drive it vs riding it

Sorry but seriously shakes on or off the throttle

with you hands on or off the bars

It it a side to side shake, or more of an up and down shake(vibration)?

haha ive only put 100miles on it and thats as far as my motorcycle experience goes besides the driving school but my friend says its not normal as im accelerating climbing speed ill feel a tremble throughtout the whole bike like if i was caught in a huge crosswind or something and its on the throttle and both hands on the bars. Bike has fairly new Dunlop GT501s which seller told me were put on last season and I checked tire pressure the very first time I rode it set it to what the sticker on the swing arm recommends.

Well the first three things to check are

Is your steering stem loose?

Are you wheels properly balanced?

Is you rear wheel strait?

if you point me in the direction on how to check those Ill make sure to do it this weekend.

[BRad704]

Didn't "do" anything to mine today, but did ride it up to the shop to trade with my brother for the weekend. Gonna hang onto his 95 VFR750 for a few days.

[allanoue]

I lost my key 2 weeks ago. Got a blank last week. Had the blank cut today. Found the old key 30 seconds after getting home in the flower bed next to the bike. Yes, I looked there 2 weeks ago

The blank was $18 and the locksmith said she had them for $5

I have 3 good keys now

[NevadaWolf]

Decided I am going to keep my "Tron" wheels so took off the glow in the dark tape and painted the strip on instead. Hopefully the paint holds up better than the tape has. I really do like the effect.
