Windscreen/Fairing Spikes M5(5mm)

ScorpionNinja · September 8th, 2009, 07:58 PM

I have 8 of these on my Red 250R!

I bought them off a ebay store. Waaay cheaper then a sportbike website,etc that sells them. Price for 6 was $6.99+S&H ($4.95)

A1Asportbikes sells theirs for like $20-30 for SIX!

I like the ones i got much better... However.....

This POST is just to Warn you guys about when washing your Bike.... CAREFUL NOT to cut or poke your hand or self!!!

These kind i bought are fuuuaccking SHARP as HELL!!!

Despite knowning their on my bike.. and being careful... its easy to get poked when washing or drying off these areas!!!

They also FEND OFF mean ppl at bike nites!!!!

Just out of curiosity, why did you put these on?

ztrack157 · September 8th, 2009, 11:10 PM

equvilent of putting a spiked collar on a chihuahua. looks retarded and serves zero purpose. lol. Had a friend do this and went down he got some nice spike holes to remind him not to put them on his bike ever again.

zail · September 9th, 2009, 06:36 AM

Each to their own but I'd also ask "why" and hope that you don't get spiked by them if you ever come off (not that I'm wishing that on you)!

rockNroll · September 9th, 2009, 10:06 AM

I don't like them. (I couldn't help myself)

Ninja250Ryder · September 9th, 2009, 10:34 AM

I don't mind them. Personally, I would not get them, but I understand why someone would put these on a bike. It's all a custom, personality marker. Scorpion likes this look and styled the ninja a certain way. Props for the individuality!

paterick4o8 · September 9th, 2009, 12:54 PM

yeah but that's gonna suck if you get spiked by your own bike in a crash

cifex · September 9th, 2009, 01:18 PM

Not feelin em....maybe it needs MORE spikes?

ScorpionNinja · September 13th, 2009, 04:07 PM

Mad Max eat your heart out! lol

More spikes, yes ill put more on as i feel needed! As to wiping out, pffft you guys make it sound like a ****ing scene from one of the Final Destination movies!!!! Relaaax, everything is just fine and swell.

I love them! When the time comes to put the ninja to bed for the winter, ill take them off and put in the stock bolts. So my Cover wont get ****ing holes poked in it!

JaeL · September 16th, 2009, 02:58 PM

Wow you really got hated on Scorp. I looked for them on ebay a couple weeks ago and only found some in that $20-30 range. Good for you.

killerkay3 · September 16th, 2009, 08:00 PM

what kind of windshield is that on the last picture?

billetmotoparts on ebay sells the ones i bought. $6.99 + S&H ($5.90) for a set of (6) SIX!

edwinmcq · September 16th, 2009, 08:09 PM

Do you think this would help keep the DC Crackheads away from my bike? If so I'm all in, no matter how it looks. It would shorten my commute by a good half mile.

Its a zero-gravity double bubble windscreen, in light smoke!

i got it from the ZGOutlet (ebay store) for $44.99 + S&H (Total $56.95)

Its a Factory 2nd. 100% Brand New, but had afew slight scuffs, and some small bubbles around the upper 2 holes (wellnuts fit into). Nothing noticable once i put it on and buffed the windscreen with some 'PLEXUS' cleaner!

It didnt come with zero-gravity stickers/decals, but i asked ZGOutlet to mail me some. They did for Free! I got 3 styles of stickers, with 4 of Each Type! Total of 12 ZG stickers... soo many... TOO MANY to stick on my Ninja!

Verus Cidere · September 19th, 2009, 11:39 AM

I gotta say, JaeL is right. You got hated on for no reason. Yeah, they might be dangerous if he goes down, but there's no way damage isn't going to happen from something like that right? I like the way this looks! I've been considering doing the same thing with my ninjette.

Don't think he got "hated upon". he likes them and has put them on.. some of us don't like them and said why do it and hope he doen't get prodded by them.. where's the hate???

:shrug:

00v_Lucky · September 19th, 2009, 01:12 PM

Are all bolts universal? Like, could I buy spikes or whatever that are made for a 636 or zx-6r or something?

im not 100% sure. i think the same ones i bought would indeed fit a 636 or zx-6r..IF the threads are 5mm ones! Youd have to look at a kawasaki.com parts diagram and search under 636, ZX-6R to find out what size (in mm) they are!

Most sportbikes use 5mm (M5), hex bolts for fairings and windscreens. Now some of the other bigger hex bolts on our 250Rs are M6 (6mm) and the spikes i bought WONT fit into these areas. (Nor would i want them too,

)

Not really hate, but it's just the strong release of personal opinion that we call "hating".

tc3jg · September 21st, 2009, 04:38 PM

ehhh I dont like em....personally I dont understand the whole spike thing because if your bike slides into well anything it will be harpooned and well it could be you or someones dog

JaeL · September 21st, 2009, 05:01 PM

lol @ someones dog

Well to me, i like the look of the Spikes! To me it adds a 'Warrior' theme to my Nate, as a Ninja is a type of warrior-class.... hmmm why not!

Ok, as afew of you know about World of Warcraft.... notice on some of the Shoulder Pads for Warrior class, characters in the game have :gasp: Spikes on their shoulder pads? If the warrior falls down in WoW, does he/she get spiked by their own spikes and die?

If i fall during a wipeout on my Nate.... im thinking having Spiked windscreen/front fenders is the Least of my worries! "Itsreload" ring a bell? That crash looked to me like his own Bike landed on his left knee/leg (along with those rocks underneath) did the damage.... Not any Spikes, if he had any on his Bike.

So if Spikes you hate, then maybe i should put these on my Bike, eh?

Feel free to Hate on those also....

madcrossover · September 22nd, 2009, 10:00 AM

I have the skull decoration. I put them on the bottom holes of my license plate to hold the plate cover. Doesnt look to bad, plus they have red eyes to match the bike.

tjkamper · September 22nd, 2009, 10:16 AM

Now all you need are these brake and clutch levers, http://www.motosport.com/motorcycle/...07940723843844 I dont think they make um 4 the 250 though...

oh believe me, ive looked into extra stuff like that before!

nah, im pretty much done with cosmo mods Except for getting Reflective Vinyl Graphics made for my Nate! Besides gettin' those brake levers for $129.99, for Next years Mods... id rather spend the $129.99 on either.....

#1 & #2 Mods next needed are:
HID headlight kit! (better night-time riding)
DIY Custom gel pad/foam reshape Seat, and Reuse stock cover! (for more comfy long rides to places like Traverse City,Mi.)
- I might buy a kit off ebay soon, and this will give me a lil project to do over the Winter! take my time and get my seat 100% comfy as in the DIY seat thread link mentions! -

dimeified · October 2nd, 2009, 12:14 PM

I see guys around here with spikes on their helmet in a mowhawk fashion. Also that custom blue ninja with flames on here, aren't the handlebars spiked? I don't remember for sure, but THAT would be something i would worry about for sure, being impaled by a handlebar.
