You are always welcome.

Is there anyway to change the suspension setting in the NINJa?
For the roads here,i feel its bouncing too much.what could i do guys??
and its really uncomfortable riding it that way.

Also,what is that block attached to the wheel in the pic??

I think the Ninja uses Yuasa YTX9-BS and the dimensions are

Length: 152mm
width: 87mm
height : 106mm

I changed the rear suspension from 2 (default) to 3(harder one), and feel the bike has improved around the corners .. for obvious reasons..

You can change to 3 also and, you will feel the difference..

The blocks are the weights attached to the rim of the wheel for balance.. you mush have heard about wheel balancing in for cars , same is the case for our bike.

Dude, please check the owners manual or the existing battery. It will have all the details such as rating, specs, code, model #, etc. You can check with Performance Racing Store or Bachoo Motors in Mumbai if they can source it for you. Try Planet DSG also. eBay and Google will be helpful too.

The Ninja's stock suspension setting is tuned for rider+pillion not weighing over 160kilos. The stock setting is a bit hard but works wonders for cornering and handling.

If you revert to a softer setting handling and high speed cornering might be affected. Read the owners manual to understand how this setting can be changed.

The aluminium blocks attached to the wheels are "wheel weights". These are added to ensure the wheels are perfectly balanced giving you a smooth ride. Some are stuck to the wheel using double sided adhesive tapes while others are clamped to the wheel's center lip.

Read and read and read.. finally

Hi All,

It took a fair while to read through the pages and get used to the lingo and the general brotherhood that prevails through the community.
I finally booked my Ninja 250r and would take delivery of it as soon as i touch India.
Hoping for some great rides and interesting thoughts and lots of queries.

Keep riding.

Wishing all in advance A merry Christmas and a blessed 20 12.

regards

Welcome to the club

Thanx a ton bro......

Bro, i dont have the manual and i checked on bachoo motors. He is saying the cost of the battery is 5,500. Can i get the battery in delhi and plz verify that the battery is yuasa ytx9-bs. Or is any substitute available for this battery ?

I presume that you already own a N250. Why not open up a panel and check battery specs instead of asking others? If you are unable to open it, call your PBK service centre and ask them.

Bachoo Motors ship products all over the country. So speak to them and ask them to ship you one.

I guess at PBK this battery costs a lot more.

Posting this for the benefit of the group...

As some of you may know, Bachoo Motors is the sole distributor in India for RJays products (gear, luggage, helmets, etc.) and is also now a distributor for Airoh Helmets, Italy. Here is a link to the official Airoh helmets website.

I searched for reviews on Airoh helmets here, but couldn't find any.

Orion Yamaha near Forum Mall, Blore, has quite a few of these helmets (they are retailers for Bachoo Motors) and i particularly had my eyes set on the Speed Fire One (link). The helmet is lighter than my SparX and the paint quality, fit and finish, graphics is excellent. This particular model is priced very reasonably too (around Rs. 7.5k at Orion) compared to the price of Rs. 8.5k i paid for my SparX. I was so tempted that i almost bought this lid. It looks really awesome in the flesh.

Most imported helmets are manufactured in China or Korea or some other Asian country (A* products are mass produced in China, my bionic knee guards are genuine A* but made in China) but the Airoh's are Made in Italy and are DOT certified.

I would highly recommend this helmet in lieu of SparX, KBC, etc. for the price point at which it is offered.

Orion also has HJC helmets at a festive price until stocks last. The HJC's are on sale for 7k onwards and there is a Rs. 500/- off on purchase of each HJC lid until stocks last. These are DOT certified.

Personally i am not a fan of the graphics on the HJC's but for those who are on the lookout for a good helmet this price and the ongoing offer should be helpful.
