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 th-cam.com/video/JPusVRwz7Vg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=5f4DCCTLAAM4qpaf

@@Rex1000_RR Thanks for the review!

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 th-cam.com/video/m6tKjPXBkhk/w-d-xo.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

Yes I can. Looking for something in particular?

a.co/d/4L5EMyK

Just a disclaimer I had to take the splitter off. It’s pretty thin and just the way the front splitter works puts a lot of pressure on it. Looks great but def needs to be sturdier especially if you drive fast.

Nope, ninja 400 parallel twin

Yup, just search ninja 400 and you’ll find them

For everything here no but to really get more power out of the engine then it’s a good idea to flash it. I’m thinking of eventually doing a dyno flash but I haven’t reached my limits just yet with the current set up so not in a rush to do so

Got these through amotopart

@@Rex1000_RRthanks

When you say shifter and rear brake you’re talking about the levers right? It’s all part of the rearsets from Kemimoto. Mine are in black. The link only goes titanium which is a little cheaper but the black is not bad either $136.39 Just found this amazing item on AliExpress.

It really isn’t bad! Just take it slow and take pictures if you need help remembering what goes where

I didn’t really mess with it. The original settings work well for me

@@Rex1000_RR i see ok thank you what is the original settings? Do you know how many milliseconds? If you dont know never mine its ok

I can check when I get home tonight. This is a good place to start store-cv6l2eo9di.mybigcommerce.com/content/2016%20QS%20PRO%20Downloads/QS%20PRO%20Settings%20Cheatsheet%200718.pdf

Nope no power commander. It has its own controller so not needed. Eventually I will have the bike flashed.

So you cannot plug that with ecu flashed?

Cannot plug with out ecu flashed

All you need for this QS is included with the kit when you buy it. The flash would be to tune the engine for better performance. A flash or power commander isn’t necessary.

Yea I’m going to make an effort to set up the camera for more footage but honestly if you’ve worked on a bike before or slightly mechanically inclined this info will get you 90% of the way there. Like anything if it’s your first time just take it slow and work through it. If you have any questions on something I’m happy to help.

Aliexpress. Not bad at all for the price

Not long , took me a couple hours but I had my two y/o “helping” me and had to mess with my exhaust brackets

@@Rex1000_RR Have you noticed much of a change in handling characteristics from raising the back of the bike? I don't know how much it applies to a bike the size of the 400 but it should in theory make the bike turn in faster and decrease straight line stability? Just wondering how much it changes the handling before I order the Spears brackets.

@@Ryan_H22 honestly not really but it’s hard to say because now that the rear is more planted you can push it more both off the line and on turns. Def recommend switching the fork oil to a heavier weight too tho to help with that stability unless you’re able to get cartridges.

@@Rex1000_RR Cool, thanks. I think I'm going to do the shock swap and just flip the stock mounts for now and if I don't like the feel of the bike I'll get the Spears mounts. Did you go to a heavier fork oil? If so what weight? Thanks!

@@Ryan_H22 sounds like a good plan. I haven’t switched the oil yet but I’ve seen people switch to 15wt for the front

I weight 165. The rear height is slightly higher but I don’t notice much difference. I feel a lot more planted in the rear which makes a world of difference when pushing the bike

I may get around to all that. I bought the Norton adapter but it was taking forever to arrive so I canceled it. It’s not causing any issues plus it’s underneath and not really noticeable so not too worried about it

What model of gxer suspension is that
