      • These cops are on my case 24/7, about the DRL. No matter where I go, they keep stopping me and noting down my number, as if I'm running away from a crime scene

        The Break in is done and I took him to 140+, easy. I am really in love with it. I've usually been against referring to tiny capacity motorbikes as "Beast" but as soon as the break in was done, the bike just surprised the **** out of me. Really is a sleeping giant. Oh and the handling... My God! Its just so flick able even in traffic.

        What dims are you running on? 140? If yes, then have you noticed any drop in performance?

        • Yes, And finally got a call from PBK saying my bike would be ready by tomorrow or by tuesday max. Its been one solid month since my bike went to the pbk. And also I had mentioned earlier saying the chassis had to be changed but that guy told me since its only a minor bend near the left foot rest there is no need for any replacement of the chassis. So the rest if being changed.
          Have also ordered for the LED tail light and also for the double bubble windscreen which I would get on the first of sept . Good to know that my ninja's getting a partial makeover :P

          • Suggestion here, I am planning to change my headlight bulb to the xenon bulbs. Does anyone have it on their bike or any idea about it? I heard that the H7 xenon bulbs would do good?

                    This is actually OT. Couldnt find any thread relevent to it.

                    Since this is concerned with Ninja 250R, posting here.

                    I ordered a Tank Pad from Planet DSG online on 8th Aug, which i have not received till date, they even have not shipped it.

                    I have had 8 mails on the subject, 12-15 calls & few SMSs also. Every time i am assured that they will call back, but none to date. I even mentioned that I am an XBHPian, still no attention or response.

                    I am really pissed off, sharing this with all of you, please stay away from Planet DSG.

                    And Mods, if you reading this, please help me, if possible.

                    They very well know me by name now however, its Paramjeet.

                      I stay in Pune. If you wish, I can go collect the tank pad and then courier it to you. However, you would need to speak with them and co-ordinate. I would just pick it up. . . will not be fighting / arguing. Sorry for blunt words but I feel it is better to clear it before everything else.

                              Thanks!!

                              And yes Ninja is absolute blast to ride at speeds over 120km/hr but somehow i have a problem with the wind hitting my helmet at over 140km/hr despite being tucked in and resting my chin(helmet) on the tank!! Seems like my XL size SOL is too large, as a result creating resistance!!

                              Nice to hear that your bike is ready. How much is the expense?

                              Which LED tail light did you order as in which make/brand?

                              • Hi everyone

                                I was searching for steel braided brake lines for the Ninja 250. I came across the one given on PlanetDSG. that was for 2600Rs. or so.

                                But I also noticed that the Duke 200 also has steel braided brake lines. Would you think the same brake lines would be a direct fit. I expect them to be less costly but not sure though cos I haven't asked. As far as I know they it should be just a simple replacement job (apart from draining the fluid and filling it again)
                                or would there be anything else required?
                                Just because you haven't seen it doesnt mean its impossible...expect the unexpected.
