What Did You Do to Your Ninjette Today ?? - Page 87

Bob2010 · March 30th, 2013, 05:01 PM

Took her out first time in 2013!
Installed my battery tenders and new battery
Banged through the gears and grinned

Took her out. Did the battery and battery tender kit
Polished her up. Didn't ride (come on , it's pink)

Oh and installed this:

Now they sit because tomorrow it's back to rain and snow again

Bob2010 · March 30th, 2013, 05:32 PM

Also took a good look at the bikes side by side and noticed my fuel lever was set to PRI.... Interesting. Must have come like that from the dealer. I never touched it. Soo today I turned it to ON and she starts better now

Yakaru · March 30th, 2013, 07:24 PM

Hotaru: She lives

-- got all the issues sorted out and she runs. Forks are in pretty bad shape, but I can at least now start making a decision on what I want to do (part out or trackinate).

Saturn: I did my 600 mile service and took off my stock bars, hope to have the woodcraft clip ons done installing tomorrow (ran out of daylight and my drill is worth bubkis). Need to take a sponge to her tomorrow to clean up the chain lube, that stuff goes everywhere.

sharky nrk · March 30th, 2013, 07:34 PM

Nothing with the ninjette. But did rail around on the xr100r

Snake · March 30th, 2013, 08:22 PM

I washed and waxed her.

astricklin · March 30th, 2013, 10:42 PM

Adjusted the clutch cable, cleaned and lubed the chain. Forgot to put the chain guard back on before my ride. Oops, guess it will probably need a bath.

tfkrocks · March 31st, 2013, 12:33 AM

Blue reflective rim tape, some of which will eventually need to be redone to look better. Also replaced the ABS stickers with the bit of leftover rim tape.

Joshorilla · March 31st, 2013, 09:40 AM

I lubed my speedo cable, as I suspected it was fairly dry I don't know if it was done properly to start with and it isn't squeeking now

So result!

menikmati · March 31st, 2013, 05:20 PM

Lubed chain on the 250R, ASV clutch lever, lubed clutch cable and Z-AFM installed on the ZX6R.

tfkrocks · March 31st, 2013, 06:27 PM

Blue reflective striping

Yakaru · March 31st, 2013, 06:35 PM

Clip ons + Pazzo Levers installed. Also figured out how my fairings go together -- the 300's fairings are stupid complicated. I think I may make a guide for myself and others on just what goes where. There's a lot of 'inside' screws and such that are easy to miss in particular.

choneofakind · March 31st, 2013, 09:32 PM

I got all my ECU stuff worked out!! Turns out when I updated the computer program, it didn't install right. So the issue was never my ECU, it was my computer program.

Sad part is, I could have been riding the last 2 days because it's been 55 but I didn't want to start it because I was worried about the software on the ECU.

And now I have to wait 6-ish weeks to ride because I head back to school tomorrow. Oh well, at least I have an air box, a new s19 file on my ECU that fixes my backfiring/slow throttle ramp-on, and I have my newest tables all on there as well. The bike should be running well this summer.

Snake · March 31st, 2013, 09:46 PM

I replaced my headlight bulb. At first I tried squeezing my hands in there without removing the front fairing but to my surprise removing the front fairing was not a big deal.

rojoracing53 · April 1st, 2013, 12:55 PM

Mounted a new wait......used rear, front, or was it rear tire

Thanks to @Jiggles I now have his old NK1 front tire(aka the ****ing tire that won't turn) on the rear of my bike. I was going to flip the Rosso II but after dismounting it the center was so damn thin between my fingers I'm wondering if there's even any cords in it at all. I figured better safe then sorry and swapped it out at only 26 days and 2900 mile. I don't think this new/used tire will buy me a whole lot of time but its a test that's worth doing.

So jiggles how many miles are already on this tire and I still want that 140 rear for my next test.

Alex · April 1st, 2013, 12:57 PM

Do you have to ride backwards now?

Jiggles · April 1st, 2013, 01:04 PM

The n1k lives on!!

Bout 2000mi on that tire already

rojoracing53 · April 2nd, 2013, 12:51 PM

Aside from ride her to work like every other day nothing. I did on the other hand update an old thread with some much needed video.

Bought a F5xt interphone system, got a cbr250 hugger on her, and SS brake line for the front. good day

cuong-nutz · April 2nd, 2013, 06:34 PM

EPIC FAIL OF THE DAY: I installed the case halves together and started reattaching everything only to find out I forgot to install the damn cam chain.

mgentz · April 2nd, 2013, 06:43 PM

Yep..that'll do it. That design sucks balls. Other bikes I have worked on were not like that.

menikmati · April 3rd, 2013, 09:08 PM

Filled up, got 61.3 MPG. I need to lube the clutch cable this weekend.

MagicMike · April 3rd, 2013, 09:27 PM

I bought it!

Well thay was yesterday but meh, close enough!

JohnnyBravo · April 3rd, 2013, 09:54 PM

Went to power sports, finalized the loan, waited as they put the bike together, got insurance, rode a SE home, thought I was gonna die on 95 in the rain to and from the gym... 50 some miles on that fresh odometer

love days like this

I installed my Speedtactics fender eliminator. Thread w/ pics

soggybottom · April 4th, 2013, 04:56 PM

Changed the fork seals and oil. Then rode to a local shop and bought some winter riding gloves. Hopefully no more frozen paws.

JohnnyBravo · April 4th, 2013, 07:25 PM

Thanks monkey.

Brrrrrr froze paws like froze... Other stuff sucks hope the new gloves work and warm ridin comes soon for ya

Bob2010 · April 4th, 2013, 08:39 PM

Washed my bike with dihydrogen monoxide and soap. Then waxed.
Came out great.

JohnnyBravo · April 4th, 2013, 11:16 PM

Die had a what???

tfkrocks · April 5th, 2013, 01:03 AM

Dihydrogen monoxide = H2O = water

subxero · April 5th, 2013, 09:28 AM

installed programmable BRT-dTIS, messed around with timing a bit. Did not get a good chance on commute today to feel her out cuz traffic, but feels smoother all around the rev range.

corndog · April 5th, 2013, 09:29 AM

I replaced my handlebar and mirror after last fall's tipover..

corndog · April 5th, 2013, 09:29 AM

Nothing fancy as i don't know a whole lot about it and what is best, just the little i have learned from posts on this forum.

I set the entire line to 41 for the most part, and set from 9000-12500 to 42.
I'm running 93 pump gas with this currently.

My bike is still stock performance wise less the BRT but, have everything i need to do full exhaust, pod, ect... just waiting for the right day when i have some time to dig into it. I was getting the itch last night and figured the BRT was something i could throw in there pretty quick to get my fix.

On way home today from work i should be able to get a better feel for the changes, but then again it is Friday and traffic on Friday is unpredictable.
