  • hello dear xbhpians ! i got my baby NINJA on 7th december but could not inform u guys due to my exams ! my baby ninja has clocked 600 kms which have been done mostly by my bro . till date i have not been able to exploit my baby ninja's potential properly due to exams . @ spyguy yaar the engineer at the time of delievery told me that i would often hear whitsles from my bikes fuel tank which is because the bike has the mechanism of maintaining constant air pressure inside the fuel tank .When the pressure is high inside the fuel tank the bike throws the extra air outside ,and when low it sucks air from outside. So the whistle sound is just due to pressure difference and it is absolutely normal..

                Lime green tail covers left and right

                Swingarm spools (bought)
                tank pad
                Sportsbike touring bags
                Xena disc lock and motion sensor alarm
                waterproof bike cover with grommets
                frame sliders (maybe)
                Black pillion seat (maybe)
                bubble screen (maybe)
                chain lube packs

                'maybe' depends on how much damage the other purchases does financially!No idea about the pricing though except for tail covers (USD 190) and Xena disc lock (USD 80). Swingarm spools were USD 30
                OT:

                  • Peter Stevens on Elizabeth street... I've also heard that sumoto on Boundary street is the largest learner bike superstore in Aus. Will check sumoto out tommorow.

                    But peter stevens is a safe bet - but you have to go and order in advance (a couple of days). I placed my order on Monday, will check with them today.

                    • Did some stickering on my bike today -

                      The trial -



                      Finalising one of the designs -



                      Putting the lower half of the sticker -

                      Looks kinda bland




                      Kawasaki Green shadow stripes being cut and removed -



                      Carefully sticking the shadow stripes - ( took nearly an hour per side! )



                      The finished look -





                      the japanese lettering is kawasaki..



                      Then stickering was done to the rear, an extension of the front tribal pattern, and also to highlight the dark rear, especially the underside.









                      On came 250R stickers on the sides. sorry for bad pics -





                      Some shots in the car's headlight. took nearly 7 hours to accomplish this. whew!!









                      Or should i put this up as a separate thread????

                        The stickering on the fairing looks Wow!! The shadow effect is really really awesome
                        The stickering on the rear is also neat.. No plans of getting the shadow thingy done eh?
                        The 250R part is also good, but personally i would have chosen some other font

                        PS: Pls treat us to some better quality pics soon..

                        The pleasure is when your rear wheel slides, and you bring it back; and when the front wheel lifts, you take your time bringing it back.

                        • ^^ i was not sure whether i wanted to extend the shadow to the rear. Wanted to highlight the rear subtely.

                          the 250R was what could be done closest to the original. I need more info on the font, and if possible a image of the lettering.

                          Ill do a shoot soon. Lets see.

                            the rear looks good too, nice thought behind it..
                            i didn't know you were trying to get one close to what the original looks like.. This is all my Googling skills could fetch! Hope you find it useful..
