Re: Cycle whore thread

Why they never update the Ninja 500. I miss my old one

They update the 250 and even make a Ninja 400 for our neighbors up North.

Re: Cycle whore thread

Because the 500 doesn't weight much less than a 600, while only trapping about 10mph more in the 1/4 than the 250.

It's a waste of a class, IMO. That's why they made 2 cylinder 650's, anyways.

Re: Cycle whore thread

I had a 500 at one point. It's just spec'd with cheap parts, so it performs accordingly.

Re: Cycle whore thread

Those bikes were tanks as far as reliablity. Not to pleasing on the eye, but the rest was solid. Sold mine for $50 more than I bought her for after 2 years, and 2 drops.

Re: Cycle whore thread

What front tire should I get? Bridgetstone Battlax BT016 ($80) or Shinko 003 ($60).
