    Congrats dude.

    Getting temp guage near upper level is ok while driving in city. Actually a lot of us guys got worried in the beginning but do not worry at all. Stop & Go riding in city traffic does that.
    Never argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and then beat you with experience.

            This didnt happen to me when my bike was new. There shouldnt be any wobbling at all. Go find the cause of it asap i say !

            I may sound stupid asking this : Are you sure its wobbling ?

            Why nitrogen ? Air is Nitrogen !

              Hello guys,

              Some ownership experience...

              I rode the Ninja from Pune to Chennai last weekend.
              • I was able to complete the ride in a day. It took me about 19.5 hours, but this was with a lot of unexpected breaks. Without them, I can confidently vouch for 17 hours.
              • The bike is so much fun to ride. Zips to 100 and delivers decent pickup in the 100-140 range. It does show gradual acceleration beyond 140 to 150+ speeds, but there are clear signs of stress.
              • When there is strong winds opposing, there is a drop in 5-10 kmph. I experienced this as I approached the coastline.
              • Cruising at 120-130 constantly, the bike delivered a consistent average of 22 km/litre. Dropping speeds will certainly increase average.
              • Being a rev-happy engine and maximum power delivered in the 10k-11k RPM range, it is hard to control the bike from red lining. It doesn't hesitate to rev higher, and thus requires quick glances at the console while accelerating.
              • Yet again, ground clearance was never a problem.
              • At greater speeds, the wind helps push the body back which reduces pressure on the arms. The position is so comfortable, which helps ride for longer times without breaks.
              • Higher revving is more screaming. There is nothing that can be done about it. I like the sound from inside the helmet, but I'm not sure how it sounds from outside. For the first time in my life, I stopped my music player just to listen to the 7k+ howl.

              With the Kwacker doing just the right amount of speed and providing great riding posture, I'm convinced about my purchase that I've made a great decision!

                  Thank u so much, puts me out of my dilema whether its worth all the hype and wait. Am happy i'd be investing in a good bike!

                      When I went to pick up my Ninja on Saturday..there was a green Ninja there. Bombay registered and the owner is a doc doing his internship. Clueless about Xbhp so gave him the website to look at. Met another guy there...another green ... not sure if it was trustvishwas or Tenhut...bike had done around 850 klicks. Forgetting the guy's name..it was chaitanya or something.He claimed to be a member of Xbhp.

                      There were three more Noinja's to be delivered this week. One green and two black. Looks like the blacks are gaining popularity.

                        Not guilty. I own a black ninja. Tenhut owns green but is named Rohan.
