What Did You Do to Your Ninjette Today ?? - Page 23

taikahn · July 15th, 2011, 05:54 AM

Installed an LED flasher relay so my integrated tail light and front turn signals would all work.

gt_turbo · July 15th, 2011, 11:18 AM

Installed LED signals and brake light alert. Thanks to Tri for making them super easy to install!

GtX · July 16th, 2011, 04:15 PM

cleaned it and oiled the chain

choneofakind · July 16th, 2011, 09:46 PM

Just ordered lowered risers from Richard at racebikerentals! Hopefully they get here soon so I can install them. Tips on getting the bar-end bolts out? ninja250.org says it's easiest to just drill them out

greatwhiteninja · July 16th, 2011, 09:52 PM

Drill em or put a torch to them for a min or so . I drilled the head of the screw off mine. Then pulled the ends off and used a pair of vice grips to grab onto the remaining thread sticking out of the bar and unscrwed them out.

Get one of these from home depot:

heat the bar end up focus the flame only on the screw. Do that for about 5-10min
Grab a #3 phillips and it should start to move. If that doesn't move it get an adjustable wrench stick a #3 phillips bit in there and then twist it out. Wear some thick gloves so you can push the bit in as much as possible. Worked for me and the screws came out just fine. (Keep in mind that you do this while the bar end is hot wear something to protect your hands)

adri99an · July 16th, 2011, 10:03 PM

Scraped her pegs up in the canyon.....

Shaol1n Monk · July 16th, 2011, 10:05 PM

thanks for the headsup on this. i will be doing my control mods tomorrow nite. was hoping to not need to remove the barends since i got WC clip ons, new throttle tube and grips and new barends (w zx-r on them) and my green adjustable shorty levers, just doin a complete overhaul on the handlebars. didnt think id need to remove the barends at all until i realized the clutch controls are mounted w only one bolt! dammit!

the brake assembly is two bolts and comes off without removing the grip, why couldnt they do that to the clutch assembly too???
o well. i'll take some pics of everything and post them tomorrow nite if all goes well

wtfh4xx · July 16th, 2011, 10:13 PM

Rode it like I stole it....

adri99an · July 17th, 2011, 11:12 PM

ninja250 · July 17th, 2011, 11:20 PM

Hehe I spanked mine on her rear!

then my

Mine might be prego? Dammit!!!!

Today I did a squid side wheelie...it was hilarious!

ninja250 · July 17th, 2011, 11:27 PM

Mine might be parted out any day now. lol
I fixed everything but the stupid frame I didn't want to wait for.

Wait till you wheelie sideways coming off a corner.

YORCHI · July 18th, 2011, 08:08 AM

removed the license plate frame that came from the dealer...

dp64 · July 18th, 2011, 10:57 AM

First ride on a 55 mph highway. No more taking the long way around town.

Racer x · July 18th, 2011, 05:40 PM

Today I was fooling around with the tail light on my 1988 Ninja,
I had some leftover LED's and thought they would look good. So I put sockets in the rear bulb housing. At first I wanted them to be running lights. But the LED's are white or Blue. They turn the light coming through the lens green. So I put in regular bulbs and wired them to the brake light. Now when I hit the brakes the whole back of the bike lights up.

I got to get drenched in rain again

. I hate how the weather here does 360s all the time. I would wear my textiles more often but there is nothing that fits me on the market. Gonna have to get them tailored or something soon

Shaol1n Monk · July 19th, 2011, 06:50 PM

okay, in addition to the clip ons today i did a double zip tie throttle mod to my new progrip scs throttle/grips. it just stopped raining here so i will be taking it for a test ride soon.

Havok · July 19th, 2011, 07:05 PM

put new tires on it front abd back then took it out and thrashed it around a parking lot to get them all nice and sticky icky. Love the 150 on the back.

EsrTek · July 19th, 2011, 08:01 PM

got off late, just got done.. so here are the pics:
ZG DB Windscreen: (missing the ninja decal (the decals from forum member didn't get here yet))

Tank Pad:

Finished Droid/GPS mount (minus the phone):

Shaol1n Monk · July 19th, 2011, 08:08 PM

taikahn · July 19th, 2011, 08:19 PM

Just like this, minus the front reflectors I already removed.

MSRP - $400 dealer fees -- 2.9% financing for 36 months, couldn't pass it up. Put the money from the Ninja back in the bank.

Shaol1n Monk · July 19th, 2011, 08:22 PM

nice! i just googled them and saw they have a Mugen edition too.

Oh noes, already man!? Gonna have to see how that stacks up against my 250 in the twisties if you are down. How do you like it so far?

coolbreeze · July 20th, 2011, 03:58 AM

taikahn, other than the price, why the change?

1) Prefer the Payments on Honda vs. having paid cash for Ninja.
2) Everything I have ever owned has been a Honda.
3) Uniqueness

coolbreeze · July 20th, 2011, 06:33 AM

Cool. How does it measure up to the ninja?

taikahn · July 20th, 2011, 06:34 AM

Less revs, more torque -- pretty fun, way different. Better around town and in slow traffic, probably not as nice on short highway bursts (but I haven't tried yet).

grandelatte · July 23rd, 2011, 01:31 PM

The black plastic rivets, holding the inner fairing and outer fairing together, started to break. I looked around my garage for a solution, then found a set of fairing fasteners. I ordered them from Bikebolts.com a long time ago. They fit well - size M4 washers, speed nuts, & button head screws.
