This was actually a very useful video for me, and I almost skipped it because of the title! I bought my '08 650R used and I have no idea what the previous owner has the suspension set to - funny story, I bought it from his ex-wife who had it repossessed after their divorce because it was under her name and she doesn't know how to ride.
I'm going to run down to the garage and check it right now, at 1:30am, because tomorrow I might forget.
"...cause I'm a skinny little shit." <-- lmao. Actually, that makes me feel better. I was looking at this bike as a beginner bike and I'm a pretty small guy myself. I wasn't sure if this bike was too big for me to handle. I think if I ride safely, defensively, and conservatively then I should be fine.
How is this "not interesting?" I love this stuff and I wish you would make more videos like this, even if you just end up fumbling around with tools it's still anything but boring.
I think you should ask yourself. Why not? :D Serously, take an intro course somewhere, they're like 50 bucks and even riding around at 20kph in a off road course can hook you for life.
freak i love the red suspension and frame of the 650r, in canada we only have that optional with the black one, but on the silver version, its a gold frame/suspension
I dont even own a ninja, yet i was still entertained watching this. I've watched about 100 of your videos so far, within the past 3 days. Looking forward to more vids!

This doesn't pertain to the suspension, but do you have custom handlebars? They look lower than the stock ones. If they are what model are they?

Thanks for the info. I got one about a month ago. I think I'm about the same weight as you so I should check if I'm on #2.

I'm sure people watched it to get a nice close look at the bike, not because they have one. Lawl.

Actually don't mind that, that's bullshit-I really have no idea why there are so many views. Strange, isn't it?
