Regarding the vibration, if it more like a mini tank slap there was a discussion earlier about this being a known issue with 250Rs and typically happens when you drop your speed from 80 kmph (I guess that corresponds to 6 krpm)... a couple of guys had seen that on their bikes, they may be able to help... check out this post by tenhut

Congrats for your ride
It is really an awesome machine.
I wanted to know the bike you got is 2010 manufactured model or 2011. As, at probiking they told me that it takes around 3 months in transit to reach finally to showrooms. So,is your bike Nov or Dec manufactured model or a 2011 manufactured? And I think this issue is with green ones,black 2011 is available now.

Go with your heart..
GF toh aani -jaani cheez hai.. bike will stay with you for long...


NOM bro.

the fuel injected 33 horses ninja is going to clip the wings of the cbr 250. the comparisons of the 2 bikes on most of the sites are between the carb version ninja and cbr which is FI, where some advantage results for the cbr. ABS brakes may be lot in theory, but the draw back is once you are used to ABS, you simply become good for nothing as far as braking is concerned(without ABS). this is most true for a first timer rather than an experienced rider.

In the days to come, we (Ninja owners) are going to face a lot of flak from people who do not know the A,B,C of motorcycles and engines, who will continue to make such senseless comparisions between the Ninja and the CBR. The stubborn argument about the Ninja being 26 P.S, a few pages earlier, was also an example of this.

CBR owners would like to think that all Ninja owners are fools for buying a bike for double the cost at which, they bought the CBR and some knowingly and some unknowingly will try to prove that the CBR is as good as the Ninja.

My advise to all the fellow Ninja owners is to smile and use a 'one-liner' I heard somewhere 'If I have to tell it..you won't understand'! and leave it at that..since we have the better bike, its only justified that they win the argument. Everyone gets something!!

I am getting a BMW K1300 R next week. The big daddy of them all.

Sorry to disappoint you - I just made that comment up in context of CBR vs Ninja same cc conversation - glad it took some of the attention away!

Thanks anyway, I'll get back on my Ninja!

Btw, the K1300R is available in Mumbai/Bangalore/Del. Bangalore on road is 19 lakhs.

thank u ,but here i am also facing problem with front shock absorbers they are rigid i mean even for small elevation on the road its giving sound which i dint notice previously

It's a 2011 make buddy.





^+26 Ps. No, ^+33 bhp...No ^+26 Ps......I mean starting from the name, it sounds better - Ninja, unlike CBR.

Finally got the Rim (Mag wheel) of the rear tyre replace from PBK Yesterday.

Cost incurred: Rs. 26280 total

Also got the Puig frame slider fitted from prasanna.

Cost incurred :Rs. 0 (Thanks to prasanna, as in spite of a very busy and hectic schedule, he managed to spare some time and got those fitted)

Rode back to my home but found that the front brakes were not working.. But i remember in this same visit , i asked prasanna whether their was a requirement to change the brake pad and he told that they are perfect to run another 2k kms+ . So I was shocked as to why they were not working.
Managed with the rear though. Came back to the home and practiced braking in the society.. still not effective.

Had a word with Adi on that, and he suggested me that , it might be that while polishing or cleaning the PBK people might have left some grease/oily polish, so he adviced me to clean the rotor with diesel first and then with shampoo solution. Thank you Adi.. did clean it multiple time and after riding and practicing braking many time , finally the machine has gained it razor shape braking .

Lesson learnt: Always check the vehicle after a service with a test ride.
