    Dude, this is the best looking Ninja 250 i have seen!
    Wheels look sick :)

    10 years later still the best 250 i ever seen

      Wow thanks man! I still have it, will be selling later this year, less than 8k miles on it

    Nice!
    Love the new (er) Kawi 250.You did a great job. As a racer (ex AMA superbiker), I would recommend against the oversize rear tire. You need a correct profile for cornering. It really helps to match the front and rear profiles so the bike tips in and sticks in the corner. The rear you have will lose traction at steeper lean angles before the front. Not a good situation. I can see that you are not using all of the tire, but if you do get to the edge, watchout.
    Great Bike! Very well modded. Should come from Kawi with those options.

    Outstanding! The 250R is great because you can enjoy it without a racetrack. Every 600 I've ridden leaves me looking for blue lights. Great job on the bike.

    i own a 2012 kawasaki ninja 250r, and i am 6' 3", 270 lbs. This bike hauls me around at 70+ no problem. Awesome little bike.

  • @ninja1970fin

    So beautiful. I have Yoshi slipon (same look as yours), woodcraft riser clipons, highsider plate holder, smaller signals. Love the bike.

  • @lfusswz

    powdercoat bonds to the wheel better than just paint, protects better from rocks/sun fade. Also the wheel is cast not billet aluminum, so the finish is dimply like an orange. Powdercoat fills in all the imperfections and looks completely smooth.. i was stunned when i picked them up. For about $130.. good deal

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  11 років тому

    thanks man, 2,500 guessing. Did most of the work myself. dad helped with rear sets and swapping out to bigger jets. installing the hot bodies undertail was prob the toughest but worth it

  • @scungilli22
    @scungilli22 12 років тому

    That is the nicest 250 i've seen, props to you.

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  12 років тому

    thanks, it comes pre-wired, just some crimping/soldering.. easy. The stock turn signals are regular bulbs and the undertail uses led's. You will have to purchase an "electronic flasher relay" so the turn signals work correctly. The stock relay is mechanical and will not work right with led's. The relay is located on the left side of the bike, if you turn on the turn signal.. you can actually hear it clicking making it easy to find.. remove that and wire in the electronic one.

    Im getting one of these this week an this most definitely re affirms my choice in this bike! That looks fantastic! Be careful with it.

    That bike is sweet as hell! I wouldn't get rid of it.

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  12 років тому

    You can loosen the brake line fitting/valve located just above the rear brake pedal, and swivel the brake line out of the way and re-tighten the valve fitting.. you might lose a little brake fluid so make sure to bleed the brake before you ride. I also used a zip-tie to keep the brake hose in place

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  11 років тому

    thankyou, i did them myself, i mounted them as high as i could under the top fork clamp and just eyeballed the alignment.

  • @alexgarcia3900
    @alexgarcia3900 9 років тому +3

    looks amazing. still have the bike?

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  13 років тому

    @MrBluetini Thanks, yep i did all the mods myself, dad helped with rear sets and swapping out the jets in the carbs which requires tearing half the bike apart to get the carbs out.

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  12 років тому

    @hallbreezy wow thanks for the comments. To get the wheels powdercoated cost me $130 with tax(california). I took them to Applied Powder in Oxnard, CA who don't specialize in just motorcycle parts but coat anything you bring in from a patio chair to a car chasis.
    I took the wheels off, had the tires removed, removed the valve stems, and the middle bearings/seals from both wheels leaving just the bare rim and took them in. They bake the wheels @ over 300 degrees which is one pt of the process

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  12 років тому

    Yep, first though i used regular paper to use as a template... once i got it right i traced it onto the vinyl sheet and cut it out. I used soapy water when i stuck it on so you can still move it around before it dries. also used a hard plastic scraper to squeeze out the air bubbles

  • @JayDeeAllDay
    @JayDeeAllDay 12 років тому

    white wheels. how did i know they would look good. so classy

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  12 років тому

    @iLoveSkylines Yoshimura suggests changing the jets to slightly bigger ones is you add a slip on or ful+l system. It sounds like its running lean. I have swapped the jets (dynojet stage 2), K+N filter and yoshi full system.. quite a big difference in low and midrange power, and high revs it doesn't gasp for air and lose power..
    Their are two catalytic converters.. one in the stock exhaust and one in the header. Adding a slip on removes one cat, so more air flow, and a full system removes both.

  • @DrumNBum
    @DrumNBum 12 років тому

    i think ill be doing something like this when i get my bike, ill get the white side decals and the black tinted screen along with an akropovic slip on. im also digging those white rims

  • @jasonlimbh79
    @jasonlimbh79 13 років тому

    Overall it really awesome, i so love ur white rims & the undertail. make ur ride more cool~
    Very great job u done~

  • @PetaBread27
    @PetaBread27 12 років тому

    That's what I was thinking, a fender eliminator and exhaust is as far as I'd go with a 250. But since he plans to keep the bike for a long time, I understand his urge to mod.

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  11 років тому

    yep its tight, this video i have a 150/60 tire, i switched to a 140/70 which fits correctly on the rim and rides better. the hugger rubbed slightly on the tire, so i took a dremel and made the mounting holes bigger so i could move it up/forward a bit to clear

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  13 років тому

    @TheJimmyEnglish Thanks brother, I haven't noticed any difference really with handling, flipping it left and right quickly is no problem. The bridgestone bt 003 rs tires stick nice, won't last half as long as the stock hrc pieces of wood. 150/60 rear, 120/60 front. Actually next set i might go 140/70 and 110/70.. same tires. The tires are too wide for the rim and the profile of the tire changes/more rounded than it should be.. i wonder if i could switch to a wider rim from another model, er-6n?

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  12 років тому

    yes i removed the snorkel tube from the intake airbox, installed k+n filter, bought dynojet stage 2 jet kit to go along with the yoshi full exhaust. huge difference from stock

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  12 років тому

    stock new ninja.. $4,000. dealerships try to bend you over, with tax, shipping/prep, license, and all the other b.s they tack on came to almost 6K. I told them forget it, they eventually dropped to $5,100 out the door. mods/upgrades roughly 2,500 guessing. thanks for the compliments :)

  • @userqweasdzxc

  • @sinemart.1028
    @sinemart.1028 4 роки тому +1

    Sexy bike man .... You got great and loyal modification skills...
    I would do nearly the same...
    BTW , I was also expecting led display console too ...

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  12 років тому

    @mckben1 part 2... the stock rear(and front turn signals) are regular incandescent light bulbs which use a mechanical flasher relay to make them blink on and off. If you install led lights in the rear you have to buy a electronic flasher relay and remove the mechanical and switch with the electronic relay. Thanks for the comments, i almost got the carbon muffler but decided to put some shiny bits on it and went w/stainless steel. Any more ?? feel free to ask

  • @9tito1
    @9tito1 12 років тому

    nice bro beautiful bike. i got a 2012 candy lime just put a 09 gsxr 600 swing arm with a yamaha r1 rim/ tire 190/50/17/. lower the bike using lowering kit.GP pipe from hotbodies it sounds just like yours and white hid xenon kit also put some green angel eyes and red demon eyes in the headlight

  • @MarvFitBikesKicks
    @MarvFitBikesKicks 12 років тому

    that looks beautiful, im thinking about getting a 2010 now.

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  12 років тому

    Thanks :), yep after every ride they get dirty. With the 150 rear i didn't notice much difference in handling. The rim is too narrow for the tire in reality and when mounted it changes the profile of the tire.. more "rounded". I'm due for a new tire a will go with a 140, won't look as cool but will be safer to ride

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  13 років тому

    @TheTKDSpartan Thanks ! Powdercoat cost $125, not a bad deal.. easier than painting yourself

  • @9tito1
    @9tito1 11 років тому

    actually bro it surprised me it handles better i thought because the swing arm was heavier is was going to be hard to handle but i was wrong. also last minute change i put a zx6r rim to match the front rim. so far is looking great and performs like a beast.

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  13 років тому

    @DaYamahaRida Thanks, i bought a sheet of vinyl off ebay and cut out the pieces. The hugger i had imported from Japan.. hugger plus shipping was about $400.

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  12 років тому

    I've riding my brother's honda 600rr and my dad's gsxr, the thrust is unbelievable, but on public roads you really don't get to use it.. unless you want your license suspended, bike impounded, fines, higher insurance then go for it! If the ninja 250 cranked out 50-60 h.p would be perfect

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  12 років тому

    Thanks a lot :) I made all of the mods over a year's time and tried put some thought into it, make it look good but not silly. Some people like it, others not

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  12 років тому

    @mckben1 They provide instructions on the hotbodies site which are not too bad. The front led's didn't come with the kit. I bought a standard fender eliminator kit and decided on the hotbodies instead, then used the led turn signals from the basic kit and put them up front. Undertail took a good 6 hrs to install, i too am not an expert but not a novice either. Have to remove the seat, battery, rear body work. Used a dremel kit to trim here and there to get a good fit.

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  13 років тому

    @NinjaRider777R
    I have to give credit to my brother and dad for the white color, i couldn't decide on a color.. gunmetal, light silver, or white. They said white would look good but i wasn't sure. I hesitantly chose white and they turned out great ! Highly recommend powdercoating over painting yourself with cans from pep boys.
    The exhaust hanger i bought off ebay for $60.. aluminum. I actually took it off and made a custom one off hanger where i work so i'll be putting it back on ebay for sale

  • @DaYamahaRida
    @DaYamahaRida 13 років тому

    best lookin ninja 250r. where did you buy the white decal on the side fairing and where did you buy the carbon fiber rear huger.

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  13 років тому

    @Iamdustyyy Not paint, i cut out pieces from a sheet of vinyl decal. took awhile .. i first cut out pieces from regular paper to use as a template, then traced onto the decal sheet and slapped them on with soapy water so you can move the decal around before it dries and sticks

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  12 років тому

    It feels more like a "sportbike" with the clip-ons and rearsets. With the clip-ons.. the grips are lower and further away so you are stretched more over the fuel tank. Rearsets are adjustable, feet are further back. I no longer feel like i'm riding a scooter.
    Clip-ons go for $200 or lower.. mine are "woodcraft" clip-ons. Sato rear sets are not cheap.. around $350 or 400 i forget but are expertly made and look good

  • @knowledgeRS
    @knowledgeRS 12 років тому

    looks wicked with white rims. Great job! Is it really hard to keep clean, though?
    Has the 150 rear given you problems, since? I want radial tires but don't want to mess with the geometry of the bike changing from the 130 rears

    • @Rezifbbpro
      @Rezifbbpro 10 років тому

      yeeeah you see there's litterally no point in here to have an engine capacity exceeding 250cc haha and the modification is soo cheap here aswell. mods like those you've seen with the 250fi are tops at around $700aud lol but in australia and elswhere it would been soo much more

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  12 років тому

    continued..
    If you do buy and undertail, give yourself a day to do it as you have to remove a lot of bodywork/battery/seat etc.. and put it all back together. I used a dremel to trim the undertail to fit snuggly. Not a big deal.. just time consuming but worth it when its all done, let me know if you buy one

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  13 років тому

    @TheTKDSpartan yep take the tires off, i dumped the stock tires anyway for the bridgestones. also have to remove the wheel bearings and valve stems leaving the bare rim

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  12 років тому

    one way to look at it i guess. my plan was to ride it for 6 months.. sell it and get a 600 but i like the bike so much i decided to keep it. We ride through the canyons mostly so power doesn't really matter in the twisties. i admit i got the mod bug and just kept going. My next bike hopefully will be the MV Agusta F3 675 triple.. i drool just thinking of it, still keep the ninja tho

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  11 років тому

    slip-on exhaust only .. my opinion probably not, full-system.. exhaust/header.. yes. changing the jets is a BIG job, have to remove fuel tank, side panels, disconect hoses etc. just getting the carbs out is a pain in the ass. have a shop do it or someone who knows motorcycles. i used dynajet stage 2 jets. swapping to slightly bigger jets did give noticeable power gains.

  • @lfusswz
    @lfusswz  11 років тому

    thankyou, the 150/60 tire rubbed very slightly, i took a dremel and made the hugger mounting holes slightly bigger to move it up and forward. i switched to a 140/70 rear. the 150 tire looks the same width when mounted on the rim as a 140/70 because the rim is too narrow and rolls the tire. anyone who reads this.. i strongly suggest NOT mounting a 150 width tire
