These Five Mods Will Make Your Ninja 400 Faster

[@apexarms5737]

Solid suggestions, especially the tires! Only thing you left out was stickers. Every sticker adds +5hp!

[@500erider]

Especially a NOS sticker !!!!!!!

1-R6 THROTTLE TUBE
2-BRAKE
3-ABS DELETE
4-REAR SET RISERS (PEGS)FROM NORTON
5-TIRES(PIRELLI)

[@slovencleta]

Regarding the ABS delete:
If you're sure you're gonna commit to getting rid of it, pull all of it out.
The small benefit of weight savings won't really matter that much.
The big thing here is you can get shorter brake lines that go directly from your handlebar to your brakes. It gives better feedback and it makes it MUCH MUCH easier to bleed the air out of your brake fluid. Once you spend 2 hours trying to get that solid lever feel from an ABS bike or even worse, a bike that has combined brakes (so that it also applies a little of the rear brake as you pull the lever for the front) you'll kiss your shorty lines everytime it takes about 4 minutes to bleed them.
And ABS on track really isn't necessary if you have good tires (for the current temperature/weather) and the surface is in decent shape.
You'll flip over the bike before a warmed up race tire locks up (unless you're leaned over a fair bit already).

[@89Johneboy]

Do you feel like ABS is bad for someone coming from a 250 rebel? Im happy to hear i can just remove it from the ninja i am getting if i find that i dont like it... Ive just read so much about people saying it saved them and whatnot

[@slovencleta]

@@89Johneboy For use on the road I would always advise ABS. No reason not to have it. For track use, see comment above. Doesn't matter what you rode before 👍

[@89Johneboy]

@@slovencleta Ill be just going around the streets for now... I may dip into some track in the future but cant i remove the abs when i am ready for that? Or is there a more simple way to disable it and re enable it?

[@slovencleta]

@@89Johneboy Usually the simplest and least permanent way to remove the ABS function is to just pull out the relevant fuse. If you aren't sure what you're doing, best leave it alone. And you might not even be limited by ABS even on track, depending on your aggressiveness on the brakes.

[@NPurvis7622]

@@89Johneboy It's a crutch, you should never need it on a smaller bike, it's just becoming standard now because people don't practice for the worst. Whatever bike you did get, just get out and practice. I don't like the feel of ABS kicking in on cars or bikes, but that's just my side. I hope you're alive and still riding bud, cheers.

[@Enorbs96]

I'm about to get my first bike after years of wanting one. Perfect timing for you to be posting bike content I'm stoked

The R6 tube is right! Slapped one on my ZX10R.....whooshhhh!

[@UnknownUser-fe5zu]

Best mod: buy a H2R

[@ForfeMac]

Small bikes are more fun. Big fast bikes are only fun in the straights and the thrill of speed becomes mundane pretty fast. Small bikes are made for the twisties and are infinitely more fun in the long run.

[@ForfeMac]

@@jessem9880 I've owned everything from 125cc dual sports to turbocharged literbikes, to cruisers with an engine larger than my first car, and I can say with certainty that the small bikes were much more interesting for me than the large bikes. Obviously won't be the case for everyone, but 300 to 650cc bikes are about the best for tight mountain roads. Enough get up and go to keep up with traffic, without all the weight and wheelbase of a large bike to slow you down in the corners.

[@-felix3161]

Don’t listen to these haters. Chase your dreams and keep going man. Plus you’re content is awesome so keep it up!

[@bCKization]

This channel should be power, shift, repeat... because you know, that's what you do in a car.

[@ninjas1krr]

Love the video. My list is different for performance.
#5. Brake pads. SBS 955 RST or DP RDP X-Race. price $50-$60
#4. Tires. Bridgestone rs22 or any favorite hypersport tire.
#3. quickshifter. Annitori Quickshifter PRO 2 $230. plug n play
#2. ecu flash. Norton/tst or any reputable company.
#1. Airbox mod. Free unless you add your choice of velocity stacks and air filter.
#0. Rider mod.

[@dhess34]

I'm scrolling, lookin' for Ninja 500 content, and I'm like, Is that PSR?! I had no idea that you had another channel ... or that you're a fellow motorcycle enthusiast!

[@Nightshade_1]

Those shoes drip hard, wtf :O

[@gorkacg8462]

A full exhaust system, high flow air filter and an ECU flash is the best way to increase power fast

[@ziepex7009]

great editing and presentation on this bro, subbed

[@kevinlewis9151]

I would have thought that you would have shown the power shifter hooked to the horn button like the drag race guys do?

[@MachineGunsandExplosions]

I love motorcycle’s and I really want one but I know I’d kill my self on it please stay safe my man also love the motor sport stuff 🤙🏼

[@JeremyDN]

I always thought the same thing cause I had no problem driving my Camaro at 150-160. I got a bike mainly when gas spiked and I got a 400. I peg it constantly but I’ve also upgraded a lot on mine. I can see where a liter bike might give me problems cause the faster I go the calmer I get. Good thing this tops out at 132. Just enough of a rush to satisfy me :)

[@binari6799]

What fairings did you put onto your Ninja? Looks nice.

[@printshiftrepeat]

These are the stock Persimmon Red 2019 fairings

[@binari6799]

never knew older ninjas came in this colorway, cool.

[@andygodden8880]

I disagree with your videos title but I absolutely love all the suggestions you made, I had no idea about the r6 throttle tube I actually ordered one while watching this video

[@skorshooters9352]

Are you the same PSR as print shoot repeat? Been loving that content for years and Im just getting my bike now lol

[@JustinAllegree]

If I'm 6'4 do you think I could comfortably ride these? I'm wanting to get into riding but honestly think that I'm too tall for these, is this a misconception?

[@printshiftrepeat]

You could do it but it’d probably be a pretty tight squeeze. I’d recommend a used sv650 over this. Or if you wanted something a bit more track focused a Yamaha r7 or Aprilia rs660. The ninja 650 is okay but the riding position of the handlebars isn’t sporty enough for my taste.

[@Topher7527]

You might also check out supermotos and adv bikes. The'yre taller and many of them are still pretty solid on track when paired with a good set of tires if you want to do more than street riding. Best way to know for sure if you fit is to sit on one. Find a dealer and sift on one for a few minutes.

[@CraterLakey]

Awesome video dude. Debating doing the ABS delete when I get mine ready for next year. Have you considered doing clip ons? I'm 5'6" and I've found the positioning of the clip ons to be kind of annoying when I'm trying to get in my preferred body position for track riding.

[@printshiftrepeat]

Yeah same thoughts I had about the body position. If I was doing only track riding I would definitely get the woodcraft clip ons. If I go track only I might get the tyga race bodywork because it allows clearance for the clip ons.

[@talbeckbarlstilskin7452]

OH MY GOD I HAD NO IDEA THAT YOU HAVE A MOTORCYCLE CHANNEL
What's more insane is that I am currently on the road to saving up to get myself a Ninja 400!

[@TurboDog73TX]

I think Your list is comprehensive and pretty thurough. Although, as many other commentors have said, merely upgrading to a more sport focused bike will give You ALL those upgrades, and then some, like MUCH better suspension, etc.
However: I totally get that it is more fun to ride a slow bike fast, than to ride a fast bike slow.. It's a crying shame that us here in the US market never got the lightweight two stroke GP replica bikes they got in Europe, Canada and elsewhere, they are the epitome of lightweight, super focused and FUN bikes.

[@anthonyscott16]

This was very helpful. Thanks!

[@MikeK56]

Ain’t no way this man has a bike channel too

[@jessem9880]

the ninja 400 doesnt make much power but is still pretty restriced, tune, velocity stacks, air filter and full exhaust really wakes the bike up, add that with the mods in this video and it feels like a diff bike

[@DualSportDallas]

Love the bike content. Looking forward to more!

[@LaloMartinez]

Beautiful bike man, hoping to buy a Ninja 400 in May!

[@dawsonbeck8763]

Great advice. That said... literally none of these will make your ninja 400 faster lol

looooooooooool

got the same bike. Hate doing the maintenance that's coming up. but it's a fun bike.

[@zerofox2030]

The PSR evolution is starting out wanting to shoot with you on the range and ending up wanting to go on a ride more lol

[@heavenlyvibes7102]

This one modification will make you 400 go 2xs as fast just add gasoline 80% and then mix 20% nitro methane it will make horsepower go up 40% roughly

[@jewolf5801]

Hey man, nice bike! I also have a Ninja 400 ABS, that I did a whole lot of mods to it already. One of the things that I wanted to do, was to get rear set risers. They came with an extension for the shift rod for the left side, but nothing for the right side to compensate for the additional length. The little metal line that’s going from the rear master cylinder, is not really movable that much, it definitely doesn’t allow the rear brake assembly to move half an inch back and half an inch up. So what are you supposed to do in this situation? Get a longer rear brake line, bleed the brakes and the whole thing? Thanks so much.

[@lostmind5683]

Solid content, made me think of a couple things that I hadnt even considered, what about exhaust though?

[@cw7122]

90% of the population couldn't take a 400 to its limits. High level riding you learn good braking is much more important then more HP. Being the squid who can hold a throttle open doesn't improve your track times.

I ride a 400 and pass 1000 on the track 🤡 you can have the biggest bike, but if you can’t equal the bikes power with skill, it’s pointless.
