The seat looks awesome.. Where did you got it from. must be really comfortable..

Did i read it correctly.. 90 rupees only.. Oh man.. figures like these for some after market accessories for the ninja is unbelievable.

Well, for the first time I saw a Green Ninja in Bagmane Tech Park today!

It's the latest Ninja with Green tail section and white instrument console.

Reflective ones are available but in slightly different green color.

Check this out - Keiti Reflective Wheel Stripe - 900.00Rs

Seen it on a friends bike and it matches the ninja green color. Its not reflective. Its fluorescent but looks fab on the wheels. I'm thinking of getting one for my bike sometime.

How about the FZ-S Green rim tapes from Yamaha.
I don't know about now but sometime back I saw at a Yamaha showroom that they sell the rim tapes as an accessory.

I have seen those tapes on FZ-S but I think they are on a darker side (will not go good with Ninja's green) and that too they are not reflective.

Only grouch is why should we import, what was once exported from here. Bajaj seems to be veering more towards the KTM and with a decreasing intrest toward the Kawasaki.

It has been almost a 2 years since the Ninja landed here, but thankfully the number of owners have remained small, hence we are getting some service (however expensive or pathetic it is).

Bajaj needs to really pull up its act.

had second service of my ninja today at chennai pbk. new oil filter,oil and service cost me 1500/- . oil change and filter was insisted by me else the same is optional. they have put the oil from the bulk stock of bajaj dtsi oil. ride feels slightly rough from before at speeds above 100 kmph. hope the ride gets better with some more kms on the odo. did 150 kms ( from chennai to vellore ) today from 1-00 pm to 3-00 pm absolutely hot weather after the service. temp guage remains on the high above centre point but below the red zone. ( speeds from 100 to 150 kmph ) ninja did okay.

the whole service quality is in the hands on your mechanic and one had to keep fingers crossed and hope things go well. plus point is they permit you to be with your bike. one thing is sure, no more bajaj dtsi oil for me.

pbk informs that they will deal with only bajaj avenger, kawasaki bikes, and KTM. no more pulsar sales from pbk shortly. kawi 650 may be launched by end june or so.

No mods at all it is just like a seat cover. u can remove it if u dont want. just open the seat...... All thoughts are mine and work done by seat maker...

If that is true , that is some good news .. so only experienced technicians will work on our ninjas..

but still the Job looks clean.. for for just 90 bucks good deal.. I think in Bangalore it will cost somewhere around 300+ or so.

best of luck for your ride.. Ride safe..

I have used the FZ green rim stripes. They look fabulous. They are just the right width.

Rightly said sir, same had happened to me when I had taken my bike for it's 1st service, don't know what mechanic had done but the bike lost it's charm but after complaining to them went again and some other mechanic attended this time and woooooooo!!!! it was back in Action.

Same was told by PBK Showroom Manager here in Delhi that PBK will only have KTM and Kawasaki bikes by this year end or so and Ninja 650R will be here by mid June.

Not seen them on a green Ninja, so thought it will have a little mismatch with the color.

Ahh... I know your black Ninja... I can know that if its you in one sight (I even know the number).

But I didn't knew that you were in BTP! Lets catch up sometime.
So that means there are two Ninjas in BTP! Well, this green one I saw around 6pm when I was leaving from office. He was with a matt black LS2 helmet.

You should have tried a different oil, after all the posts regarding the quality of the dtsi oil.
I noticed it after the 1st service, plus difficulty in lower gear shift. Changed the oil to Motul in the 2nd service.

PBK will deal with sales of those bikes, but the service will be done at the same service station. You are right, it all depends on mechanic/engineer who will take care of our bikes.
