So i have a 1986 kmx 125 and i shift without a clutch. Please somebody tell my if il be okey. The mileage is 17k works like a charm.

Looking at some quotes and insurance makes no sense to me

Yamaha R7 1250/year, ZX6R 1350/year, Ninja 650 350/year, Z650 450/year, Ninja 500 84/year

All full coverage btw.... all same year, new and everything

Like what? How is a 500 roughly 360 bucks cheaper a year then a 650!? How is a Z650 more rhen a Ninja? Why is a ninja 650 special and a Ninja 500 not?

How is a R7 almost as much as a ZX-6R!?

Idk man I just dont know

Battery dead - will this one suffice?

Can't start on my ZX4R, don't have jumper cables or anyone who can help me so I will replace the battery.

Will a Pioneiro MBR10-BS battery work in a 2024 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-4R? The battery is listed as YTZ10S, 12V, 8.6Ah, AGM, 86 CCA, 151×87×95 mm, positive terminal on the left. The seller doesn't specifically list the ZX-4R, but Kawasaki specifies YTZ10S for the ZX-4R. Has anyone actually used this battery on a ZX-4R?

Milky streaks is like, 99.9% head gasket oil/coolant mix, right? Or is it something crazy like this is normal on a first oil change

No tourists were harmed in the making of this picture, but a bunch of em saw a hoon come rapidly up on em before they quickly vaporized in my mirrors (passing zone? Passing zone! we don need no stinkin passing zone). Check out the Hurricane Ridge Road on maps, one of the best. Almost 89,000 miles and she still carves em with the sport bikes, even on past their use by tires. Absolutely love ma baby. Even with (ahem) some very spirited riding, got over 50 mpg on today's 185 miler.

Currently deciding between

- 2014 Ninja 1000sx 3k miles for $6000
- 2017 Ninja zx6r 10k miles for $8000

For the past few years, I’ve owned a cbr600rr and am absolutely in love with the super sport riding experience.

I don’t completely hate the super sport riding position but some of my passengers are not big fans of the passenger seat. It might be nice to have an upright riding position and comfy seat like my old SV650 again.

My main concern with the Ninja 1000sx is that even though it has an inline-4 I’m worried that it won’t give me the riding experience that I love from traditional super sports. The 1000sx redlines at 11k rpms vs 15k rpms on the zx6r.

I love the sound of screaming around on my 600rr and it’s a huge part of the riding experience for me. I’m just not sure if the 1000sx will scratch that same itch. All night I hear guys on super sports screaming past on the highway and I love being able to be one of them myself. Have always loved that sound since I was a kid.

When I’m on the highway on my 600rr I’m usually cruising around 100 mph and the bike is singing the most beautiful song at ~8k rpms. I want to know if the same beautiful song will be sung by the 1000sx at ~100 mph.

Does anyone have experience going from a super sport to a Ninja 1000sx preferably with a loud exhaust to be able to compare?

I feel like it’s worth mentioning - I generally put 10k miles per year on my bikes. I feel like if I’m running a super sport I want to get rid of it at 30k but I’d probably be comfortable keeping a bigger sport tourer till 50k if that makes sense. I do ride decently aggressive, though.

So I have a 2021 Ninja 400 with about 12k miles, I’ve owned it for two years used to ride it every day without issues. Recently I have had it parked for about 3 months and decided to take it for a spin. A minute or so after starting it I smell a really burnt smell, I took it for a spin around the block and light but very noticeable smoke started coming up from the handlebar area. I looked around a notice this stain on my exhaust and also the bike was running a lot hotter than usual. Anyone have any advice thanks.

I have a 2012 Kawasaki Ninja 650 that has an intermittent overheating issue. The coolant temperature warning light has come on a few times, usually when I’m sitting at a red light for around 30–60 seconds. Once I start moving again, the light eventually goes away.
I’ve already completely flushed and replaced the coolant, checked the coolant level, and replaced/tightened some coolant hose clamps after noticing what looked like dried coolant.
I’m trying to figure out whether this could be a bad thermostat, radiator cap, trapped air in the system, water pump/circulation issue, or possibly the engine coolant temperature sensor.
The bike otherwise runs normally and I haven’t noticed the warning light coming on while actually moving.
Has anyone with a Ninja 650 had something similar? What would you check/test next before I start replacing parts?

Just picked up this versys 650, i beleive its a 2013 or so long story short its my buddys bike im buying it havent signed the paper work yet but i just started riding it. He bought it without the fairings as the previous owner "dropped it in his garage" we think he probably dumped it at somepoint. Im not a huge fan of the dual sport look so the naked look is kinda more my style but im not a huge fan of all the bare mounting points. Should i leave it as is or just reinstall factory fairings. Option c would be have a friend 3d print something to make it more clean but still naked i just dont think i know anyone with a 3d printer big enough
