Aftermarket parts for the Ninja 250...

wolfsautobody · 07-08-2006

I am about to get a 2005 Ninja 250 with less than 800 miles on it from my soon to be father-in-law and I am looking at doing a few custom touches to it. He is giving me the bike for free (well, not really for free, I am doing some painting for him) so I want to put a little in it to make it different than the other bikes out there. I own a body shop so I plan on repainting it and putting an LED tail light on it for starters. I was wanting to replace the rear fairing pieces with a one piece racing fairing but I haven't been able to find one. Does anyone know where I could get one? I have already found new turn signals for it. And I am looking at trying to put Diablo M3 style automotive mirrors on it because they have the turn signals built in so I would be able to eliminate the front turn signals. Also, can someone suggest a good place to find a jacket that I can wear during the summer while I am riding? I prefer a jacket that come with the padding installed. I am trying not to spend $150 or more on the jacket if possible, but I know you can't put a price on safety. I work on a military post so I have to have a jacket on while I am driving to work to my other job.

Thanks,
Ben

Is there any other sites that seel the tail fairings? I found that one but they want $200 for the tail. That is a little pricey for that small of a piece. I could buy a fiberglass front bumper for a car for that price and it is about 5 times larger. I may just try to make my own.

thats really not that all bad of a price, the nose cone I bought for my car, unfinished was around 250 dollars if I remember right, and its not that much bigger.

thats solo seat cowl looks totaly do-able. Any idea how much the paint would be to match the new yellow?

It would probably be cheaper for you to take it to a body shop. They shouldn't charge more than 1-2 hours becasue it is so small. It would cost you more to buy the paint & clear and paint it yourself because most paint stores want sell anything less than a pint. And then you still have to buy the clear which comes in a pint or quart is the smallest. And you could probably do the whole bike with a pint and reducer and still have some left over.
