Hey guys .. Finally the D Day arrived the same day I arrived back home took delivery today ! It has been a loong painful waiting period.. It was totally worth it !! The feeling is immense and incredible !! Love the bulky look and the handling is superb.. I agree with the small issue regarding the distance between the foot peg and gear lever being a little more than mormal.. Though for me i suppose it is just a matter of time and it should not be a concern after a few hundred miles.
And yes I got rid of the saree guard and the front number plate even before I rode her out of the showroom with a big grin on my face
more to follow as I munch more miles.. I call it off for thr day now .. Tomorrow onwards its a green mean world

Cheers!!

Congrats Varun.Lamba. I can feel the dream world of mine of the time when i take the delivery of my Green devil in your words, please do post some Pics of the Ninja , to add to my Library too

Congrats ZMA, not sure if you got the answer to this ..Performance Racing . in (Mumbai) should be able to get you all you need and ship it too.

thanx vectorz... i have been knowing about PRS thats in tardeo, mumbai as i got harri's tank pad for my kariZMA ....since then there was no touch ..i wasn't sure they do shipping for such amount of product ...but thanx again ...i'll call up there no . for further enquiry..

guys anybody who can make me come out of dilemma , as i'am getting "tik tik" noise which peculiar from engine<not to odd> at thorttle closing time...i'am using xtra premium fuel which i guess is 91 octane and its more evident after 15 to 20 kms.it has odo reading 400 kms till date... i never got her more then 6 k rpm ,generally 4 to 5 k rpms...is it the doubt i have or valve sound ....which i think is to early to comment ...to people who is not sure please dont confuse me as it is new and i n break in period...i haved riden other SBK'S but for normal ride say 5 to 10 kms...actualy owning your's makes you more consious.. also the engine sound is heavy for all middle weight and a litre segment...is it normal.. rst i have to weight till first service..

thanks..

Wow!!!! 70k is quite a bit... N having to do only a full system is a let down... Thanx anyways

Guys looking at booking N650 shortly. Upgrading from 250. Just wanted to check if end cans are available as exhaust options instead of a full system? Any idea on approx cost?

There are no slip on's available for 2012 Kawasaki N650. You can only go for Full System exhaust and as of now in India, PRS has brought Akrapovic Full System exhaust which costs a whooping Rs.70,000
Performance Racing Store. Akrapovic Exhausts - NINJA 650 2012

2012 N650 has single exhaust piece of the header back hence there are no slip on's available as it would mean you would need cutting and welding to be done on existing exhaust.

Please check with your authorized dealer as well as this might void your bike's warranty.

Ride Safe,
