Hi everyone

I have just joined the forum and the motobike fraternity. :kuda:

Having completed Q-Ride, I have purchased a Kawasaki Ninja 250R (2010 - and the first new vehicle I have ever bought - but hell at the $ why not!).

Still in the cautious on the road and commuting to the CBD daily to get some time on the bike - and trying to break the dam engine in. 4000RPM is frustrating.

Anyway, looking to modify the bike as there are apparently a lot of Ninja 250R's on the road and I would like to customise mine - starting with the exhaust.

hope to meet some of you on rides in the future.

R.

Continue with a good and sensible approach to your riding....ur skills and confidence will develop..and you will find that you never want to get yourself into a cage...speaking of cages... :shock: :shock: they are the ones you have to be most careful about. You will get some g8 advice from KSRC members:kuda:

Dude, you don't have to run the engine a 4K rpm all the time like the manual says. As long as you don't constantly hit redline, you'll will break it in fine. I got a 2010 ninja (my first bike too) and sat anywhere between 4-10K rpms on my first 1000kms and had no problems at first service :) Just go through your rev range and have fun.

As for exhausts, most Ninjas I see use a Yoshi TRC (a little quieter than other cans but good quality) or a Two Brothers (loud!)

By the way, congrats on the purchase and welcome to KSRC :kuda:
