[2012Spahn]

[tibbyman88]

Sick Ninja man, Time for a Two Brother or DanMoto Carbon Can muffler!!!

Love how the seat cowl makes the bike look!!!

[juscratchinmaballs]

@tibbyman88 thanks :)

[kurdi82]

hey man check my video. Thanks for this vid i modified my 2009 red ninja 250 just like yours, but got an alarm too and a bigger tire. check it out :)

[SwaGSyZtiQ]

how and where can i get a brake modulator like yours?

[juscratchinmaballs]

@SwaGSyZtiQ no cut modulators (dot) com

[1purp1kush]

how old were u when u started getting into bikes wasd this ur starter bike

[jabba12000]

Was this your first bike? I'm torn between getting like a used 250 and running it into the dirt then getting a new 600cc.

[juscratchinmaballs]

@jabba12000 yes this is my first bike... i'd say your plan is perfect. if you're a new rider (never owned, little exp.) i'd strongly advise starting on a 250, get used to the feeling, master it, then work your way up if you feel its necessary. when i was first looking at bikes, sitting on a 600 and up just felt too much and a bit uncomfortable. after owning and mastering the 250 for a couple seasons, sitting on those same 600s and up feels so much more managable and comfortable. good luck!

[jabba12000]

@juscratchinmaballs

Ha well honestly i'm looking to go fast. I have a 475hp car and thats pretty fast. I would want a bike that can out do that however i understand i need to start somewhere and a 600cc+ bike is not good to start on. I've raced several bikes and the 700cc bikes and up start to get crazy fast.

[juscratchinmaballs]

@jabba12000 theres a diff. between fast and quick... the 250 is hella quick and could probably beat that 425hp car for a quarter mile/ 0-60. but if you want FAST, go with a 600... you seem like you have a bit of exp. and you might outgrow a 250 faster than others. keep in mind, the bigger engine you go with, the more gas you'll consume and the less quick it will be... but it will be faster, like you said you wanted. get the 600!

[jabba12000]

@juscratchinmaballs

Ha trust me man i have to use high octane gas or race fuel for 450rwhp. Either way 12mpg would be the best i get. Even on low boost i struggle with getting 15mpg. idk what the 600's mpg is but i'm sure its tons better than my car. I just need a fast weekender so i don't have to use my car so much.

[juscratchinmaballs]

@jabba12000 i get about 50 mpg with the 250... my guess would be a 600 would get 30-40 (if you're lucky). if gas mileage is a major factor, 250 all da way! if its just an alternate ride like you said, a "weekender", 250 all da way!

[dipninja]

did u tint inside the signal lenses with electrical tape?

thats a great idea : ]]

[juscratchinmaballs]

@dipninja yep i sure did... i saw it on a video on youtube and also thought it was a good idea :)

[juscratchinmaballs]

@dipninja yes i did... i saw a video where a guy did it and also thought it was a great idea :)

[slantyrock]

It looks class

[utubeteam6]

where did you get the sliders?

[Sungfooo]

How tall are you dude? I want to know what i would look like on this bike

[juscratchinmaballs]

@Sungfooo im 6'3"... and ya, to some, i might be "too tall" for the bike. but thats thier opinion, there's no such thing as too tall! if you feel like its the right bike for you, then its the right bike for you. end of story. and tbh, nothing to do with you, but im so sick of people worrying about what they'll look like on a motorcycle. those people should just stay in cars, thats not what riding is about.

[Sungfooo]

How tall are you dude? I want to know what i would look like on this bike

[jtgrenie]

How long did it take you to install the Fender Eliminator kit? I'm interested because I'm trying to decide which one I want to order.. thanks man awesome bike!

[bobbyyoung3]

whats the thing on the back where the seat can go? a corral? I WANT OONE.. i only got a seat.. ]:

[jtgrenie]

@bobbyyoung3 it's called a rear seat cowl. I think they are $119 from the dealer but you can find them on fatbikez for $108.

[nvidia56]

i hope u have put a diff muffler on it lol, its just me but i personally hate the stock exhaust

[juscratchinmaballs]

@nvidia56 i hate the stock muffler too but i figure in the end, its still just a 250. i dont need it to sound crazy loud and fast, its just a 250. also, i doubt of any serious difference (HP, torque) a new exaust would bring. not worth it really imo.

[nvidia56]

@juscratchinmaballs yeah perfectly unerstandable, thats kinda y i went with the exhaust on mine cause it was the cheapest out of all the ones i found for the bike

[XxF4KEandG4YxX]

were do you buy ninja 250r's at?

[CatchUpToMe]

ruf ruf ruf ruf ridaz?

[bluemuscle2]

was it hard to change out the windshield could you let me know how to change out the screen i just ordered a double bubble from zero gravity.

[juscratchinmaballs]

@bluemuscle2 no, its actually really easy...all you do is unscrew i think like 6 hex screws(be careful not to lose them, they come out wierdly), then just slide the old screen out in the new one in. oh, and the screws have like rubber grommets that go along with them that can be a little tricky but once you unscrew one, you'll figure out how they work and you should be able to finish without a hitch. its really the easiest thing i've done to the bike(even the decals were harder:) hope this helps

[mcturk17]

u look dumb as hell on a that ittle bike with ur tall ass haha. its a hot bike tho got one in black.

[juscratchinmaballs]

@mcturk17 you look dumb as hell talking shit about someone who's having fun on his brand new motorcycle... get a life, Mr. "perfectly proportioned for his motorcycle".

[Beast99DE]

@mcturk17 you should get the shit slapped out of you prick!

[mcturk17]

@Beast99DE why? cuz it looks like a toy when he is on it?

even i look look huge on it and im 5,3

[Beast99DE]

@mcturk17 no because u dont gotta talk shit to the man if he feels comfortable with it, let it be

[mcturk17]

@Beast99DE i wasnt talkin shit, its just my way of sayin he dont look right ridin it cuz he is to tall. it aint like i said ur bike is fuckin ugly. its a hot ass bike i got the same exact one in all black

[guitars4life96]

Hey can you tell me how you did the plates... like did you buy anything to replace the back part where the plate normally goes? Did you just unscrew the back part and put the plate on or what did you do? cuz ive been trying to figure out what to do with it, but i have no idea.

[juscratchinmaballs]

@guitars4life96 i got the competition werkes fender eliminator kit and had the shop install it. probably coulda done it myself tho, not too hard. hope this helped. also, search youtube for DIY fender "fixes" for the 250. peace out!

[Dan9271]

how tall r u and how much u weigh?

[juscratchinmaballs]

@Dan9271 im 6'3" and about 165 lbs... how about you?

[ratmfreak05]

that windshield totally destroys the ninja 250r sport look

[juscratchinmaballs]

@ratmfreak05 i think it adds a little "muscle" to the front of the bike. it makes it look a bit stockier. i think it retains it's sport look while also giving me some added wind resistance and aero-dynamics...thats why i got it, for your information, not to make it look any more or less "sport".

[kurdi82]

hey man, i just bought this bike today, i have to pick it up next saturday. Can you tell me how you maintain your bike? When do you do oil changes and what other things do you have to do to keep it running at top performance.

[juscratchinmaballs]

@kurdi82 read the owners manual... it will literally tell you everything you need to know. including oil changes, check ups, maintenance, etc.

[bqftw1]

i dont like the bubble windsheild, i realize it helps with wind but still

[blah1752]

You needs to gets you some sweet boots son! Actually, seriously you should. They'll look sweet and protect you.

Nice Ninja, I'm likin it!

[juscratchinmaballs]

@blah1752 ya, im lookin for a nice pair of casual looking riding shoes for $120 or under... any suggestions?

[BIGJERMS18]

@juscratchinmaballs if your still lookin, i recently bought the Shift Racing Fuel Shoes. They are excellent to do what they do. I got the for $100 from motorcycle superstore. People don't even think they are motorcycle boots.

[juscratchinmaballs]

they're SHOGUN frame sliders. i got the package that comes with bar ends too. great deal! hope this helps.

[KenD0LL]

Nice. I'm looking to pick one up for my wife, she's only 5 foot. Btw, you seem a lil' tall for your 250.

[jamz1022]

Nice i got my 2010 250r last week, and am starting modifying it next week.

[GGundamBlue]

ah man nice ninja i got me the 09 special edition i only paid 1000 for mine haha only had about 1000 mines on it when i got it. but im now replacing the brake and clutch levers with carbon fiber ones and also the grips with lime green gel ninja ones and also carbon fiber bar ends and sometime soon a HMF exhaust system and K&N filter with a dyno jet kit i'll post up a video of it when im done. nice bike man keep those 250r's rollin!

[Beast99DE]

why bro? the bikes great but dont spend all that money on it yet. ur gnna get tired after 3 months and gnna want a 600

[juscratchinmaballs]

@Beast99DE am i gonna want a 600 or are YOU gonna want a 600?

[Beast99DE]

@juscratchinmaballs uhmm im getting my 1000 this upcoming week so i doubt im going to need the 600, lol. im guessing you like riding around the 250? because i f it cant accelarate through traffic i wouldnt waste my time because a 250 is accident prone bro.

[mcturk17]

@Beast99DE ur right i got a 250 and one month later i want a 600 already

[heartlesspinto]

The 250 is a great beginner bike, or just a bike to get if you're looking to save some money. The one thing i HATE, is how small it is.

[HatenSuffering]

Yo, I like what you have done with the bike man. Sick bike!

[jethromayham]

Where do u purchase the helmet brake light?

[xxxsssxxxsss]

@juscratchinmaballs it's an awesome beautiful ride man. im planning to get a ninja myself. for the moment though im studying up on some books because im a huge noob at this (learning shifting, cornering, etc.), anyways, what kind of mods would you suggest after i get my bike?

[Beast99DE]

fender eliminator is a must. strip lights for bike frame are so sexy at night. halo lights. CRASH KIT! U WILL CRASH IT your 1st 6 months atleast twice. but other than that the bikes beautiful itself man take good care of her

[xxxsssxxxsss]

@Beast99DE Thanks alot buddy i'm trying to take courses pretty soon and hope to get a ninja 650.

[Beast99DE]

i just pickd up my CBR600RR about a month ago. bro its so sweet. the 600 is alot diff then a 250 youll feel it. but you will get used to it. i allready toss my cbr around like i did my 250 and its so much easier to wheelie on the damn 600 than my old 250 lol.

[crazyboybud]

aye bro fuck the haters that bitch is clean i want me a bike just like that im getting one soon when i join the Marines and get my money up i like it

[riderlessniper]

why do you need to go any faster than that dumbass? This is'nt Germany.

[wowcrazy70]

was up wit the stripper music?

[FallingReign]

Nice mods.

What fender eliminator kit are you using?

and What colour are your rim stripes? The stripes match really well where did you get them?

[newchips]

How tall are you? In a few of those shots you look tall as hell, and you make the bike look so small. I'm 5'11" and I don't think I make mine look so small

[strker99]

Y eah I was gonna say the same thing. He looks way to big for that Bike. It pisses me off because I'm almost 6'1 and I was really thinking about buying this bike, but I don't want to look like a giant on it.

[Wareagle5693]

if you're 6'1 then you need a 650 or something, plus the 650's look better than the 250.

[virtual120]

What software did you sue for the slide show ? - nice bike BTW.

[juscratchinmaballs]

@virtual120 its just windows movie maker or whatever the default one is for windows :)

[RYNORICHIE1]

scared you gonna drop it?

[frescasipper]

[TheAldo18]

[romeloredo]

Yes. some people have vids of it and I thought it was an orange 250r

[aybboy]

Nice bike. its SICK!!! Love the seat cowl. Is that the stock tire?

[juscratchinmaballs]

[romeloredo]
