howdy from oregon

hey all. i've been riding a 1995 ninja for a few years now and figured it was time to join the forums. i don't take a lot of pictures of the thing but i spend a moderate amount of time on it and it brings me joy.

at this point it's got fresh springs, stainless steel cables and stickier tires as well as a host of dubious aesthetic improvements, chief of which is air horns in the back that play the theme from the godfather

i have a dogged insistence on maintaining the lollipop blinkers and full rear fender because there's something enjoyably perverse about it


spent a lot of this winter doing trips on the freeway, looking forward to moar twisties

Hello J., welcome! The stock signals have a lot of visibility compared to most aftermarket ones.

Hi J and welcome to Ninjette!!!

Yeah, I haven't found any aftermarket LED turn-signal that's as good as OEM. Only thing that's better is to get flush-mounts for incandescent bulbs and put bright LED replacement bulbs in. And only get ones with published lumens output.
