    I dont understand why such difference in the speeds at the same rpms.
    You could start with confirming whether the speedo is right, followed by doing a load test on the clutch.

    No changes were made at all to sprockets or anything else. How much does yours redline at?

    I did a vacuum sync when service was with Bajaj - about 4 years ago.
    Mine is 30615 now - 7 years down the line. Recently plonked an Exide VRLA. Stock one lasted 7 years.

    That is a huge difference. How come 80 at 8k rpm? Have you done any modifications? I am yet to get the Vacuum Sync done. Odo at 30600 kms

    Guys,

    One quick question. What speed does a Stock Ninja 250 do at 8000 rpm on the top gear?

    Mine does 100 kmph at 8k rpm on the 6th gear.

    Thanks in Advance.

    Yes sir,

    As advised I checked the battery terminals, there was some rusting on the battery terminals and connectors. This is the first time I have opened up the battery compartment in all these years, so I'm not sure if the rust buildup was gradual over the years or the recent heavy rains caused it. I scraped the battery terminals with screw driver, removed all the rust deposits and wiped them with a dry cloth, did the same thing with connectors and reconnected them. I also applied Vaseline on them to prevent further rusting.

    Now it has been a couple of weeks and there are no further problems so far, so I am starting to relax a bit. But as you said that 4.5 years is already a good life for a battery, I'm keeping an eye out for other signs like, headlight brightness and weak horn or delay in cranking the starter. I'll replace it on the first sign of trouble.

    Thank you again for all the help and advise.
    You can use sandpaper. Works easier and more efficient

    Re: Kawasaki Ninja 250R

    hey guys im in trouble
    i am from sikkim and theres so kawasaki service and dealers around my city
    the closest one is kolkata which is more than 14 hour ride from where i live
    recently i had ordered oem clutch plates. rolon chain sprocket and replaced it in a good workshop recommended by a ktm head mechanic in siliguri west bengal
    so after all the work and the bike was brought back
    the bike has lost its punch. theres no torque in the low range,inface the bike doesnt pull in hilly areas
    i tried every bit to diagnose the problem
    thought it was compression problem and changed cylinder head o ring gasket for sparkplugs cause it was the only doubtful part which was faulty
    but still couldnt find any fix

    i was wondering if we could check the sensors of the bike through ecu (obd type)?
    please help as im a noob in this segment
    any lead would be of great help!
    thank you

    P.S: My yuasa has not been changed for the last 6 years. Will be changing it in the next service though.

    I dont think there is any blown fuse. Blown fuse happened with my Ninja 650 and on investigating further, rats had bitten the wire from ignition..
