Thanks!

@@Rex1000_RR 👍

I’m glad it worked out so well. I definitely felt the same way that there is a lack of info online for this bike. Hoping to change that somewhat with my mods and these videos. What else you have coming in?

@@Rex1000_RR Installed a set of headers already, waiting on a belly pan extender and radiator guards. I'll get a full set of crash protection at some point too. May swap out the Akrapovic can for an Arrow one. Then I'll leave it alone

@@R1ACEnice sounds like you’re well on your way. These bikes don’t need much but setting it up right is part of the fun for me. Where do you ride?

It def is made to suit taller riders. It’s not too hard to disassemble if really needed tho. Def a perfect bike

🙏🏾🙏🏾

On the X7 I did my first oil change at 4k miles. Really depends on how you drive whether it’s more city vs highway. The more wear and tear the more often you should change your oil. BMW does 3 at 10k intervals so you can just wait for those or add in some extras in between. The most important is the first oil change since it gets rid of manufacturing debris that might exist as the engine is put through its paces which is why I did mine at 4k. Waiting till 10k felt too long. Also depends on how long you plan on keeping the vehicle. For the short term the 10k is probably fine but if you want to keep it long term than I would at least do it every 7500

@@Rex1000_RR Thinking of keeping the car, B58 is an excellent engine

@@easternbeast3615good thinking!

Much appreciated! I love the white. It’s a popular color tho so at times wish I got something more unique but can’t go wrong with it either way. The rims are actually 22inch. I live in south Florida where the roads are pretty good but you can def feel the bumps if road conditions aren’t ideal. RFT also are a little harsh but that’s to be expected.

Glad to hear! It’s a great vehicle. Share a pic when you get it

@@Rex1000_RR I don’t know if I want the 60 or the 40. Maybe I’ll let her choose.

Nope! And they’re not stickers

Thanks!! Definitely love it. Here is a link for the M grill inserts: Lanyun compatible with bmw X7 G07... www.amazon.com/dp/B0CH59WW6C?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

They’re not really downforce winglets in this application just cosmetic. This is my track bike so ended up taking them off

If it was just me I def would not have gotten an X7. It’s a great people carrier but if I don’t have people to carry then it’s just big for no reason. If you want an SUV I would go with the X5 or even X3. The M is mainly for fun ultimately costs more in gas and more maintenance costs as well so gotta weigh out if that’s worth it for you. Now as an investment vehicle that would definitely change things and you would have to perform your own market analysis based on your location. Both X7 and X5 exude luxury so it’s whether or not you’ll book more/make more off those extra seats that will ultimately answer that question.

You’re welcome to take care of your own vehicle as you wish. Something to consider tho is what did engineers figure out? What is their end goal? To make sure the car lasts forever or just until warranty period is over/maintain resale value? Changing the oil is simple and when done properly can never be a bad thing in my opinion.

Is it not coming out from the bend? If you need more leverage try adding an extension. The further away you apply pressure the more torque you’ll have to break it lose.

@@Rex1000_RR thanks bro !! Tried a longer wrench worked for me. It was really stuck there due to the bend. 👍🏽

Glad to hear! Safe riding!

Thanks!! It’s actually held up really well. I would recommend it. The X7 also is a amazing. No complaints even now

@@Rex1000_RR amazing. Thank you!

You only have the balance the tires when they are initially installed on to the rim

Hi! I don’t want to take the bike apart again but here is the parts diagram to show how everything should fit www.partzilla.com/catalog/kawasaki/motorcycle/2022/ninja-400-ex400hnfan/rear-wheel-chain

Thanks ​@@Rex1000_RR

The 500 is pretty much the same bike as the 400 with just some changes to the engine so it should work. It def helps positioning immensely for me. There are others for even more aggressive positioning but any further than this set up you have to either cut the fairings or get race fairings. They are def safe as long as they are installed correctly. These are made my woodcraft which is a solid company that makes a lot of products for track/race bikes.

@@Rex1000_RR sounds good! They actually make ninja 500 ones. I'm just wanting to make sure they are going to be less upright seating than the stock ones

@@Rex1000_RR oh and does it come with the grips

@@GamersWorld22 for sure def a worthwhile investment and no doesn’t come with grips

Thanks for the input. I show the interior in some of my other videos. Was there something specific you wanted to see?

Hi! BMW has mats but they’re a lot more expensive. These ones were off of Amazon and have been great. Good quality and def cuts down on cleaning time Floor mats: a.co/d/3BTRXfl Cargo mat: a.co/d/4Ru11vO

@@Rex1000_RR thanks for the link!

Hmm yea I’ll have to see what’s out there!

You’re entitled to your opinion but to me true M vehicles retain the M badging. M Sports like mine are the tri-color badging. Got it on my 335i M Sport as well 🤟🏾🤟🏾

@@Rex1000_RRhahahahahaha

Honestly I don’t think it helps or hurts. Def not anything wind tested. I get about 20-21 mpg primarily city driving and mostly in eco mode. Didn’t change after adding splitter. I drive fairly quick but don’t have a lead foot. Got heavy popo in my area and they love to pull people over

Thanks for the support! Just made a video answering your questions. Please let me know if you have anything else you would like for me to address. Good luck with the purchase of your x7! ua-cam.com/video/mYSg-0y6UaE/v-deo.htmlsi=PLlZB4DnQHxmxLyK

Much appreciated! Took a lot of hard work

Hey! Mine is a 2022

Not a problem! Let me know if you end up getting it. Def share some pics and your thoughts

I opted to get a bike without abs. If you have abs you would have to change that as well or delete it

Not much can beat riding a motorcycle on a racetrack

Thanks! They feel great. Def get much better response from it than stock. I would recommend.

Thanks! They’re from Amazon. I have the link below. a.co/d/fM3F1FI

Here’s the link for the lever guards just some cheap ones from Amazon can prob find even cheaper on aliexpress. Def not the best but works for my purposes a.co/d/0qhTEO6 The bar end came pre installed on the woodcraft clip-on www.sportbiketrackgear.com/woodcraft-kawasaki-ninja-400-2018-clip-on-riser-assembly-w-bars/

Made a quick video for you. Let me know if you had any specific questions ua-cam.com/video/JPusVRwz7Vg/v-deo.htmlsi=5f4DCCTLAAM4qpaf

@@Rex1000_RR Thanks for the review!

​@BoneStarr2k get the m60 if you can

get the m40 if you're looking for a family car, m60 is overkill and the V8 is a fuel slurper bro

@@diceywdfor sure, on eco mode, the i40 on average getting about 21 mpg - mostly city driving

Is yours from woodcraft? These are just pushed in there so you just use a set of pliers and yank it out. Takes some effort. You can try to not damage the barend but I found you had to really squeeze the pliers so mine got a few scratches. Not a big deal since I’m not going to use the bar ends anyway

You’re welcome!

Awesome! Happy to help

Are you having trouble with something? There’s not much to it just gotta remove the bolt on the side of the bar end and switch it out for the lever guard. Just position the lever guard correctly based on your preference and loctite for extra security. Let me know if you have any questions. I got new clip-ons coming in so I’ll make a more thorough video when I’m installing those in the coming weeks

That’s seems odd to me was it brake fluid? That system needs to be air-tight otherwise you won’t have proper brake pressure. Def want to try to verify where the fluid came from. Check the pads and make sure the pistons aren’t pitted. Maybe afterwords quickly bleed the brakes and top off your brake fluid. Make sure you have strong brake pressure before you ride.

@@Rex1000_RR ahh unfortunate. I just learned how to even get the wheel off yesterday. I’ve been trying to get this bike ready to ride for weeks 😂😅

@@MikeRideskeep working on it man. The first go around can be tricky but def good skills to learn and have the pride of being able to take care of your bike properly 😊

@@Rex1000_RR most definitely man. I finally got it road ready today. Took it out for the first time. Had a blast!

Honestly I’m not sure. The reason to switch to braided lines is because it doesn’t undergo hose expansion under pressure. This allows you to have more feel and a better response when braking.

I’m just under 4k miles now and def had a lot more to go. Hard to say exactly how much tho. Front def had a lot more to go than rear. Road condition and riding style def play a big role in how long tires last. In Florida we have a lot of straight roads so more likely for the tire becoming squared off as well. Always important to do a pre-ride inspections and pay attention to those wear bars

Pitbull stands are great although a bit expensive www.pit-bull.com/kawasaki-ninja-400-motorcycles Here is an Amazon one that would work a.co/d/6R0JsN4

pretty much any amazon or ebay stand will work

i bought mine from vevor and its cheap and does the job! i can link if you want

Just got me a trackside last week from cycle gear

Nice! Def a useful addition

Yeaaaa not much to it haha

If the aftermarket shock you’re using is the same length then you do not. Can just switch out the shocks without having to mess with the brackets at all

Sure can ua-cam.com/video/m6tKjPXBkhk/v-deo.htmlsi=Zo2AlR04V4-j8mVx

I did not. I’m not too heavy only weigh about 165. The aftermarket shock allows for more adjustments. Plus it allows the rear to feel a lot more planted and less bouncy.

I’m not sure the brand. Just some cheap ones I got off amazon years ago. Def not the best. Pitbull stands are great and honestly for a front stand if you don’t have a spool then much safer and easier to get the stand that inserts into your lower triple tree (steering stem). Rears def want to use spool stands def makes it much easier/safer as well

I might do something like that in the future but the reason I dropped down to a 400 was to become a better rider. They sell a Ram air but might not be worth it for this bike. Some people have also cut the airbox and adding stacks. I plan on tuning the bike eventually so will most likely figure it out by then
