What Did You Do to Your Ninjette Today ?? - Page 84

rojoracing53 · March 13th, 2013, 08:31 PM

Washed and waxed, fixed arched out headlight connector so now I've got both my HIDs back. Checked fluids and overall inspection before heading out tomorrow for a 1,500 mile weekend of riding

Blacked out my Hero3's with paint so they blend into the bike better.

S1att3r · March 14th, 2013, 05:08 AM

Washed her.

menikmati · March 14th, 2013, 12:33 PM

Got some Motul 300V, RBF600, and oil filters for both the 250R and ZX6R. Going to see what the Motul Kool-Aid is all about and will send in an oil analysis w/ TBN at 5-7.5k miles.

mariorivera830 · March 14th, 2013, 06:14 PM

Got my Area P on! Looks and sounds nice. Now to get that jet kit installed..... Might have to spring for that one though.

YORCHI · March 14th, 2013, 08:16 PM

Cleaned and lubed the chain

Then gave it a baby wipe bath with Meguiar's Quick Detailer and a microfiber towel

cuong-nutz · March 14th, 2013, 09:47 PM

Got an Inspection sticker on the wrong plate. Hope it doesn't flag me because of wrong mileage...

Scraped the old sealant off the case halves.

iplante · March 15th, 2013, 12:28 PM

I pulled the gas tank off. It had about 2 gallons of gas in it that as "fun" to empty... NOT.

I started with a pump and filled two cans. Then I dropped a screw inside and felt pretty stupid. Then I just took the petcock off and shook the rest out... can't hear the screw inside anymore, I think it may be in one of the jerry cans.

Now I need to go spread cat litter in my garage, then find the screw and then empty the cans into my old truck

I also dropped off said gas tank along with all my fairings to a body shop. Next time I see my baby's pieces it's gonna be magma orange instead of lime green

gallardo73 · March 15th, 2013, 12:46 PM

Ok this is how mine is gonna look
very soon!![ATTACH] seriously

tfkrocks · March 16th, 2013, 01:16 AM

Installed my new Scorpion carbon fiber slip-on and TechSpec C3 tank grips. Took off the OEM rimtape with the intention of putting on different rimtape but I utterly failed at that and also realized I want thinner rimtape, so plain wheels for now. My bike's cramped corner of the garage isn't great for pics but here's one anyway.

lolibater · March 16th, 2013, 10:44 AM

Rode around the Point Reyes area. So exhausted.

menikmati · March 16th, 2013, 11:58 AM

Put Motul 300V in the ZX6R, waiting for FedEx to deliver my RBF600 so I can get that done with.

LittleRedNinjette · March 16th, 2013, 02:57 PM

Installed my SSR gas cap!

menikmati · March 16th, 2013, 04:53 PM

Just finished flushing and filling both bikes with Motul RBF600. Pretty sure the PO of the ZX6R never flushed the rear brake lines as it was murky with black gunk.

csmith12 · March 16th, 2013, 04:58 PM

Cleaned the garage up some. She is on the stands.... race parts are starting to go on tomorrow.

How's the EFI doing? Got it pretty much stabilized? Still liking my rich map and ignition timing?

Any feedback for me on the rich map? I can make some changes for you if you think it's too lean/too rich in certain areas.

StephenA · March 16th, 2013, 05:20 PM

Seems low unless you're riding most of the time in full throttle...

What maintenance have you done lately.

tfkrocks · March 16th, 2013, 08:04 PM

Blue oil cap from SSR. Will get the blue steering stem nut on when I manage to remove the OEM one.

so its probably more accurate if you said you had 47 smiles per gallon.

Joshorilla · March 17th, 2013, 12:02 PM

Topped up the scottoiler, took her to the garden centre and brough all my spring seeds.

menikmati · March 17th, 2013, 03:56 PM

Discovered that my rear shock preload was set at 5. Never changed it once I bought it but I will go through each of the settings during my commutes this week to see if I can find a preferable setting.

You're the dude who bought all the farkly bits from Bikerz and has posted about it 5 times right?

Yeah... not blowing my mind. It just lots of blocky asian bits that are expensive as balls.

Everyone has their opinion though. If you like it, that's the important part.

My 03' is getting 70+mpg @ 70mph freeway...Worst I've had is around 50mpg going 85 mph freeway with city thrown in. Try some Seafoam if you have mot yet...it works miracles. Mileage wont be it's best right now cause of the ethanol in the current "Winter Blend" Fuel. There's an additive my friend turned me on to called Star-tron that counters the negative effects of ethanol including carmelizing of fuel.

i cut off 15 lbs of steel from my bike yesterday, does that blow your mind?

gallardo73 · March 18th, 2013, 08:46 AM

Have you checked lately that even the usa
flags and the us olympic team uniforms
designed by ralph lauren yet made in
China? So the term "asian" does not
relate to bad quality animore.Indeed

gallardo73 · March 18th, 2013, 08:47 AM

My apologies i meant "anymore"

alex.s · March 18th, 2013, 09:03 AM

did you know that most low end clothing companies can't afford to have their products made in china? their labor costs are too high these days. most textile manufacturing and sewing is done in cheaper countries like indonesia. chinese seamstresses aren't bad, actually. and really its not the location that will tell you the quality of the seamstress. high-end labels reject a lot more pieces because of defects instead of simply letting them go to sale. until you get into really high-end hand made stuff that is all pulled back and hand tied, its all the same ****. but buying real couture clothing will cost a lot. think at least $50 plus per shirt plus the sizing/tailor... which means most people will be paying around $150 for a shirt of that quality. however, if you know a good seamstress, and make friends, they can produce a true couture custom fit piece for the price of the fabric... which means that $150 hand made piece is now only about $15. moral of the story: buy your clothes hand made from a local tailor. make friends.

Yes I'm aware of that. Even my head's not that far up my ass. But that has nothing to do with motorcycles.

Bikerz parts look gaudy, blocky, and overdone, especially for a 250. Their novelty has worn off because they're so ugly and they're no longer new. I don't like farkly nonsense that does nothing except make a bike look like a transformer and cost a lot of money.

Like I said, it's your bike and your opinion. If you like your bike, that's all that matters.

alex.s · March 18th, 2013, 09:09 AM
