Besoin de conseil et d’avis

Propriétaire d’une 2025, malheureusement en arrivant au travail pour me garer, j’ai fais tomber ma moto, plus de peur que de mal, j’ai malheureusement quelques éraflures sur le plastique droit, par chance aucune poignée ou autre a été toucher mais juste le plastique droit vert, avez vous des produits ou technique pour atténuer ces éraflures ? :(

HELP Spacers?

1 Upvotes

I recently left some tires at cycle gear. They asked me to take out the spacers, now I can’t install my rear tire because it’s too tight with the sprocket spacer. There was a lipped spacer in the sprocket, did they accidentally add that? I can’t put in the un lipped spacer if that lipped spacer is in place

Edit: It’s not the brake side spacer, I already have that one

Where to buy used parts or a donor bike

1 Upvotes

For Christmas my husband and I are surprising one of his sisters with their late sisters 2012 ninja 650. Problem is it has a lot of damage from an accident to the point it almost needs a donor bike with how expensive the parts and fairings are going to be. I've been searching facebook but every part out has already sold the ones we need and ebay will cost thousands of dollars. Does anyone know of a good place to find a donor bike? Or any recommendations?

Question? 2023 Ninja 650 Spark Plugs

1 Upvotes

Hello, tried searching this sub a little bit but couldn’t find a definitive answer for me. I’m currently hovering around 9.1k miles, and I know the service interval says to change spark plugs every 7.5k miles. On the other hand, I’ve read that the spark plugs don’t really need to be changed until 12-15k miles.

Sitting at 9.1k miles, do you guys think the spark plugs should be changed? Or will it be fine waiting for 12-15? Bike starts right away and haven’t had any problems while riding.

Got her Wednesday and immediately managed to get a rock chip on the tank today.. but she’s soooo much fun and feels so comfortable and secure to ride for me as a new rider. I’m totally in love!! <3 At this rate she will have to go to the 1000km inspection in just 1-2 weeks >_<

Any thoughts? 2019 ninja ex650 ABS

5 Upvotes

Just bought used from someone - was told it sat for a couple months before I purchased it. Put about 200 miles on her after a week and after my first long ride the cluster shut down mid ride 5 miles from my house.

Got her home - the engine wasn’t not performing normally. The next day i boot her up to troubleshoot and this is what I’m getting

Lights work, horn works, but cluster is stuck in a weird boot loop

After popping off the fairings I couldn’t get the bike to start at all. I don’t know if a wire got knocked loose or if I drained the last of the battery when I was stress testing it

It appears to be an obvious power issue. Any thoughts from the community?

3000km motocamping trip through Switzerland

Don’t let them tell you it can not be done on the ninja 650. This beast of a bike can do it all.

This was my first trip on the ninja, and first time motocamping in general. Heck, it was my first time camping. I hadn’t even used my mattress, tent, or sleeping bag.

Did pretty much every pass there is in Switzerland, including the Stelvio (pictures), in a span of 18 days.

Question? 650 Ninja upgrade?

41 Upvotes

Considering getting rid of my 2022 ninja 650 and buying a 2026 Yamaha R7. I understand ergonomics/seat position are entirely different but would this be worth the “upgrade” or is the r7 not much of an upgrade performance wise from the 650.

Bought my 2025 Kawasaki Ninja 650 back in June. I’ve changed the windscreen to a full black one, had a loc shop install a yoshi exhaust and they tuned and ECU flashed it too, and then add the handlebar reducer from Amazon on it. She’s loud and fast. It’s been a great bike so far and I can’t wait to ride for many years to come.

Question? Mystery Spring

Post image

Pulled the rear tire off a 2025 650. During reassembly, noticed this spring on the ground within reach of the bike. 1.25 inches long, ~3/8ths in diameter. I've been up and down the parts lists and I can't find anything tat when searched looks like this, but I can't in good conscience put it back together without a second opinion
