Cant read Japaneese -have they mentioned the price?

No - Cant see it scuffing the tail panels. Infact there is a rather largish gap between the cown and tail panel

Thats very nice, will be waiting to see the close up pics.

I can read, write&speak Japanese-the prices of the CF covers are as follows:
1. Instrument panel cover 6090 yens= Rs.2900
2. Mirror covers 5250 yens= Rs.2500
2. Indicator covers 6300 yens= Rs.3000
4. Set of mirror+indicator+IP covers 15,540 yens= Rs.7,400
So if you get the entire set, you would be saving about Rs.1000.

If possible, please post a close up pic of the seat cowl also alongwith the CF hugger pics. Sorry to trouble you, but for the moment I can only feast my eyes on these pics.

For those who are getting green tail covers, I have saved a pic of the 250R logo, maybe you guys can get this made in the same font locally.

I am nearing 600Kms. so the chain needs its periodical cleaning. The manual talks about it. Can any body here please tell me in brief what are all the things i need for that. It would be very nice if you can brief about the cleaning too..
Thanks.

Google it you will find many DIYs.
Just in brief:
1.Things you would need:
a. A cleaner eg.WD40, Kerosene
b. A soft cotton cloth.
c. A old tooth brush, a paint brush etc.
d. A lubricating agent like OWS Chain lubrication, SAE80 gear oil (REFER 2 UR MANUAL)

2.Firstly throughly clean your chain with avalaible cleaner with the help of a tooth brush. It should be visibly clean, now use the cotton cloth to remove traces of cleaner .
3.Now apply you lubricating agent as directed on its packaging.
4.You are ready to roll!
(This is a really short desc of all that thing you need to do, it will easily consume your 1-1.5 hours if you are new to this work)
OTN: Please do google once.

I am in Japan next month - let me see if I can get these. But I think these are not real carbon fibre, but only textured covers. I can double check once I am in Japan.

JD - the vinyl which we have ordered should get similar effects.

Ajay

I am not sure a helmet with a peak is a good choice in case you are planning to ride fast

The wind may push your head back and would be difficult to ride... just my 2 cents

Guys just got back from Khivraj, An update...try to avoid roads that have been tarred recently a couple of people have had trouble with stones getting lodged and screwing up the cooling of the bike...

Not sure if you have a paddock stand... in case you don't i'd suggest you just ask the khivraj guys to do it for you...won't take more than 10-15 minutes..

BTW they don't do all the steps Suhail mentioned

I remember someone saying that the seat was too hard&wanted some more padding. Whoever it was, I found this: Corbin Motorcycle Seats & Accessories | Kawasaki Ninja 250 R | 800-538-7035

Aren't you spending too much time in 250R thread instead of R15?

Hey! I will drop in on you for it, once I get the bike. Hope you remeber having promised to come with me for the tail cover paint job? Which general area do you live in BTW?

Hi Yasser, I thought you told me you already have the bike?
I remember my promise&will honour it for sure.

I'll stand there with you to get the job done to our satisfaction.
I'm PMing you my no.-call me whenever you like.

one of the loveliest MotoX helmets I have seen but JD id right. It wont suit the needs of the Ninja 250R. Good buy nevertheless.

is it for a paint job with siraj or a sticker job with mohan?

Both the buggers have gone lazy these days! been more than a week since i paid and asked mohan for no plate for my RTR. he still has'nt readied them! he did the same for my 220 as well!

And Siraj's paint job on my RTR was'nt upto the mark as well!

Paint job with Siraj.
Mohan is lazy no doubt.
But Siraj's paint work has been fabulous on my Fiero F2&also my metallic brown Verna a couple of times recently

. We need to stay there to get it done to our taste.
Your RTR is non metallic black. We got some touch up done to Bhanu's RTR which is of the same shade&it turned out perfect.
Go back to him if you didn't like it, but get it done only by Siraj, not his workers.

How I wish! No dude, the buggers are still not delivering. I am afraid I will get the delivery only in May..terrible time for biking in HYD.

Will surely let you know as soon as I get delivery...maybe the same day, if I can remember in all the excitement.

Touch up was done by his workers at his presence. Went back there next day and showed it to them and they said nothing can be done. While siraj watches me and continue's with his work not bothering abt it at all! Hate ppl with such kinda attitude!
