Has Kawasaki stopped functioning temporarily because of split from bajaj?

Yes read on a magazine that, bajaj-kawa are splitting from 2017, and no more ktm services for Kawasaki.
Cheers.

Yes, kind of. KTM showrooms arent selling Kawasakis anymore. They cant order Kawasaki parts as well. All Kawasaki showrooms are now selling bikes from Z250 to the H2R. Kawasaki will set up exclusive stand alone service centres first in major cities , thereby expanding, and will service the entire range. The next two months might be a little difficult for Kawa owners to source parts and service as well. On-going discussion for extending service alone at KTM is also ongoing. Hopefully, good times are ahead.

Finally got my Ninja 650 today.
Rode it for around 15kms and I must say I am LOVING it!!!
Will post pics in sometime.

Any idea how good are these frame sliders:
RD Moto SL-01 Type Springed Crash Protector (Black) - Bachoo Motors

Wasnt happy with the stock headlight, hence got Osram H7 Nightbreaker unlimited. These were better than stock however I am used to ridding with LED and HID projectors in my R15 v2, hence had some difficulties riding at night.
Finally got the Osram 35W H7 4200k HID conversion kit. Fixed em myself today morning and boy, they are amazing.
Light up the road real good, the color is very good and doesnt cause glare as well to oncoming traffic.
The color is as close to nigh performance halogens.
Prior to this I have used 3 different kits in my R15 v2 (2 6000k and 1 4300k) and none of those were this good.
Can post pics if folks want to see.

Please do post some pics of your ride as well as the lights.

Finally installed the Sport Bars today. Did the job myself, took around 40 mins. Control is a lot better than the stock bars. Going on a trip tomorrow. Lets see how it pans out when riding for long periods.

Post the pics if possible ☺
Cheers.

Re: Ninja 650R - Ownership Thread

Last Friday went on a bike trip to Coorg. While going the bike behaved very well. It had rained heavily in Coorg at night. In the morning when I started the bike, its started fine however after sometime i got some burining smell. So switched off the engine. After sometime the bike would start and then engine would die on its own as the rev would lower down. Hence started the bike and revved for a while and started riding. After sometime the engine warning light came on.
As of now the bike is running however the engine warning light glows as soon as i start the bike.
Is there any way I can diagnose stuff without going to the service center?

Check the manual
It would have a page regarding the engine warning lights
The code flashes by the number of long and short flashes
Just see that and check the manual and you'll find the error

Re: Engine oil for Ninja 650r

Hi Everybody ...need help.. It's been two months since my KN 650 arrival..so 1st service has to be done.. Now point is that in my city Motul 10 W 40 is not available but 10 w 50 is available.. Here KTM people are using 10 w 50.. What to do? Shall I go with 10w50, other wise I have get 10w40 from Hyderabad.. Even oil filter was also not available here, that was brought from Hyderabad with the help of a friend.. Please guide me.. And Green beast cross 1000 km mark..

You can safely use 10w50.
Heres what is mentioned in service manual:
Although 10W-40 engine oil is the recommended oil for most conditions, the oil viscosity may need to be changed to accommodate atmospheric conditions in
your riding area.

Here is India, summers are especially hot, so use of 10w50 is great as is most places, summer temps cross 40.
