List of mods in the works for my bike:

1) Area P Standard SS Exhaust, with

2) Dynojet Rejet Kit

3) Woodcraft 36mm Universal Clip-ons

4) ElectroSport Digital Speedometer

Some others in the "Possible" category:

a. Custom mounts for my LED signals
b. new headlight

I'll post pictures once I make headway on installs. It's going to look good.

Snake · February 5th, 2010, 08:36 PM

Looking foward to seeing your mods.

Momaru · February 5th, 2010, 10:46 PM

There should be a 'list your mods' thread around here, might wanna throw these up there

Love my Area-P, DynoJet kit, Woodcrafts, hope you enjoy too. Be very curious to see the digital speedo

The headlights are working well, better than expected. The low-quality bulbs that came in them didn't last more than a couple weeks, but once I replaced with standard Sylvania bulbs, they have been trouble-free. They are super bright.

tapdiggy · February 6th, 2010, 06:11 PM

Ya Snake, I posted there a while back with what I had done up to that point. I'll edit it when these bits are installed.

Snake · February 6th, 2010, 06:16 PM

Cool tapdiggy, I look fwd to the updates.

tapdiggy · February 8th, 2010, 01:56 AM

I did the wiring for my new gauge yesterday and hooked it up. Works well except for the directional wires I crossed

. Now I have to figure out what setting to program the tach and It will be set. Does anyone know what type of ignition system the Ninja has; 1-pulse or 2-pulse? Or the engine rotations for each ignition cycle? I can;t seem to work it out for myself.

tapdiggy · February 12th, 2010, 10:58 PM

Well here are my new handguard/directional combo setup. You can see my Dynojet kit in the background too.

I can't wait for to git my clip-ons in so I can mount these up.

nate-bama · February 13th, 2010, 05:43 PM

like I said, I need my clip-ons to arrive. Ordered from fatbikez and they don't seem to put much effort into customer service. Guess i should have just ordered through woodcraft directly.

nate-bama · February 14th, 2010, 05:35 PM

it's hit and miss ordering online it seems

tapdiggy · February 21st, 2010, 01:02 PM

My bike is all together. Big thanks to Plasmatoast for working this project through with me. Here are some pics of the process:

My bike when I put it up for the winter.

My stock Left-hand exhaust.

And now it's gone, exposing my cut chainguard.

My new Area P exhaust

Alex · February 21st, 2010, 01:25 PM

Good work!

tapdiggy · February 21st, 2010, 01:41 PM

After the exhaust was on and adjusted properly, all attention went to rejetting the carbs. No pics were taken since neither Plasmatoast nor I had been in the carbs so deep before, and we didn't want to lose focus.

After the carbs were back on the bike, we moved onto the 36mm Woodcraft clip-ons and the new digital gauge and voila:

There is some finishing to do, a few wires to neaten up, but my Ninja is ready to ride, and ride I did last night. So cold; so worth it.

nate-bama · February 22nd, 2010, 08:46 AM

lookin good!

tapdiggy · February 22nd, 2010, 08:50 AM

It rides great too.

pinkard129 · February 25th, 2010, 06:05 PM

No problem. If you have pictures of your bike post 'em up. Maybe this thread can evolve into something cool

pinkard129 · February 26th, 2010, 07:29 PM

thanks, i gotta a pic of mine in the picture section tittled "Naked!!" check it out and tell me what ya think. i have just a plain jane speedo that a got from jcwhittany but i like how yours incoperates all the indicator lights, very cool!! keep up the good work! your bike is looking good

Snake · February 27th, 2010, 06:42 AM

Wow the bike is looking great and I love the speedo. Oh by the way, the link to your video does not work for me.

tapdiggy · March 2nd, 2010, 11:38 AM

I got my carbs all tuned. the throttle is so nice now. I can blip it anywhere in the rev range and it responds instantly

Verus Cidere · March 3rd, 2010, 12:13 AM

I'm looking forward to my carbs being tuned correctly. What size jet did you end up using?

I used the DJ98 in the Dynojet kit. I am not sure what size that translates

Momaru · March 3rd, 2010, 10:31 AM

DJ98 = 0.98mm = Keihin/FP 100 = Mikuni 91.9

http://www.ninjette.org/forums/showt...tting+database

Might consider posting your specs in the Jetting Database thread (second link) as well

Your ninja makes me think of the Headless Horseman. Maybe because it's got all the cowlings but the main/front one (I think) Like the look though.

Good thought on the database. Ya I like not having the fairing up front; it makes me focus on the road without having plastic in my peripheral vision.

Verus Cidere · March 4th, 2010, 05:48 PM

Thanks. I'm going to be having a good mechanic fix my carbs for me this time, and wanted to make sure the jet kit did in fact have something that works.
