Ninja has been running great

My Ninja has been running great since I did the full charge on my charger/maintainer. The last few rides I've taken along the portable charger "just in case" I ran into an issue again - so far haven't

Had another great ride last night for a good 45 minutes. I was very conservative with the choke - very carefully edging it along as the bike warmed up. No stall issues, no idle issues, running fine and having a blast!

I left it on the maintainer last night just because and it started up great this morning. I almost decided to ride it into work - 48 miles one way, but decided against since there was a 30% chance of rain. I didn't want to get caught in the rain again like I did with the Rebel, riding home 48 miles in the rain, going about 35 mph...that was NOT fun. Tomorrow's supposed to be nice so I think I'm going to give it a try!

being in ohio is hard to ride the bike everyday...here in los angeles i never had any battery or carb issues because i ride it everyday and as you know it never rains in southern california...

amy, time to move and put 12k miles a year on your bike in the twisties and canyons...

I used to put 15,000 miles a year on my bikes. The new job entails travel, so I am gone 30% of the time or more.

I did ride today, but you guys are getting what I got last night. my bike was outside and soaked this morning.

take your rain gear with you to ensure that it wont rain
