I don't see why people are so afraid of revving the stock engine. Check your oil regularly and have fun.

Ill tach out the Ninja at least once damn near every time I ride it though.

well a bike is a bike, theyre made to be drive "fun" lol i wouldnt even call that driving it hard
i dont understand the point of a shift light, just watch the tach?? the one on the stock dashs (manual) are for fuel economy
i mean i can kind of understand it flashes and you shift so you wont have to watch it, but thats like not being ready to shift when youre supposed to....like say im in 2nd and watching the tach, as it nears redline, i get ready to shift, if not watching and that light comes on BAM SHIFT NOW! seems like there would be a few good seconds inbetween the light comeing on than the actualy shift....maybe set it lower? i still dont see much point of it

Apparently youve never been in a car that revs so fast you dont have time to look back and forth. The light is very very helpful.

Just check that oil...add some lucas additive on every oil change and you will be good. Up top of the power band is where these 4 bangers make power anyways. Well my Lg0 does. And yes Ive hit the actually limiter and governor a few times too.
95LsCoupe wrote:Also everyone keep saying check that oil, what does this mean really, should i be looking for metal chunks or what? i change every 3000 miles on time, is that what you guys meant just keep it clean?
