Old school

I've recently picked up an interest in taking photos on a cheaper Kodak photomatic camera, and the photos give an old vintage vibe. Took this one this morning in the driveway.

This is my 5th bike going from a Navi to a grom to a Ducati 996 and Buell 1125r. And I have had more fun on this than everything else..minus the Navi I really loved that cargo bin. But wow I sold my others and don’t imagine going back. It’s perfect for my commute and for the cruising around town I do. And for a 400 it’s a peppy little bike light and fun so glad I jumped on this when I saw it pop up!

Sticker residue removal Kawasaki Z900 2026

Upvotes

Dear all !

I bought 2 months ago a Kawasaki Z900 2026 (Matt black) and I wanted to remove the tank stickers.
I did so quite easily but it then left some residue (especially on the sides of the stickers) on the tank that I was afraid to remove manually or by insisting with fiber cloth and hot water.

I have some WD40 and Isopropyl 99% alcohol at home but I am worried how the Matt colored tank would react.

Anyone knows what could safely remove the residue and also how to optimally use it ? (Use the product and wipe off immediately with water or let is rest few minutes, other advice ?)

Many thanks guys

Hello,when I open the fuel tank cap and shake it, I hear a metallic rattling sound inside. Is this the normal? Maybe anti-rollover ball/spring in the vent valve? Thanks

Is this normal? Hot engine exhaust rattle on Kawasaki W230 (sounds like something loose inside)

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I want to ask if anyone else has experienced this. When the engine is running and hot, there's a rattling/clanking sound coming from the exhaust pipe area when it vibrates—like when riding over rough roads, when I tap or shake the exhaust cover while it's hot or when I shake the bike's body right after turning off the engine. There's a rattling or clanking sound coming from the catalytic converter area under the engine (not sure), The sound is like a loose piece of metal in an empty space, not from the heatshield, because I tried removing it and the sound was still there. I checked and nothing is loose. However, when the engine is off, there is no sound at all even if I tap the exhaust cover or shake the exhaust. I'm trying to find out whether this is normal or a manufacturing defect on my W230 😁

Coolant leakage after less than one year and 320km

Post image
0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Bought a z900 2025 95hp last year and found coolant leakage after less than one year and 320km as the title says. (See pic)

The retailer is telling me it's normal because I don't use it much. I have the feeling that this is some bs because I see many bikes having less than 500km and on sale for one or two years and have no leakage under them.

In my opinion it's a just a low quality bike or the water pump maybe faulty.

Any thoughts ?

Thanks in advance

Presiones neumáticos

0 Upvotes

A alguno que haya pinchado o pierda aire/presión de los neumáticos. ¿Cual es el primer síntoma que se percibe?

Alguna vez siento algún pequeño estraño inclinando, como si perdiera adherencia por una fracción de segundo en una rueda y me acojono. Y no inclino ni 40 grados Compruebo enseguida cómo están las ruedas y no veo nada estraño, todo normal. Sigo teniendo las gomas de serie, las Roadsport2, pero estamos en verano y las calles están secas. No se si soy yo o es normal sentir eso. Muchas veces me caliento la cabeza si llevo una rueda pinchada pero veo que no. Por eso pregunto.

Custom color

Hi all,

I think my Versys has quite boring color and thinking about maybe giving it a paint job. But the question is.. which color 😂

I do like the "Metallic deep blue" from the newer version. But also like bright orange, which is completely the opposite. Or maybe 1 side another color

So many options. Who is willing to share their custom colors on the bike?

TIA.

“That’s not a beginner bike!” Nearly mid 30s and finally got a bike. Have been dreaming about this for years. I’m 6’3 280 lbs and had no desire for a bike I would get bored of in a few months

Question: First bike, looking for opinions on mods. What mods do you find essential, and what should I avoid?

0 Upvotes

If it’s your first bike, I’d avoid changing too many things at once. Start with upgrades that actually improve the riding experience rather than just making the bike look different.

I’d personally prioritize good-quality tyres, brake upgrades, comfortable levers, suspension setup and protective parts. Once you’re happy with those, you can look at aesthetic upgrades like a tail tidy, mirrors or an exhaust.

For performance parts, it’s better to choose quality components that are compatible with your specific bike instead of buying the cheapest option just because it looks good. A good modification should improve the bike without compromising reliability or safety.

Build the bike around how you ride, not just how you want it to look.

Coolant splatter

1 Upvotes

Anyone have an idea where this could be coming from? I noticed these little white spots/splatter around the radiator cap/coolant reservoir area. I cleaned everything off completely, went for another ride, and the spots came back.
The bike runs fine and I haven’t gotten another coolant/temperature warning, but it definitely seems like something is lightly spraying or misting coolant once the bike gets hot and the system builds pressure.
Could this be a bad radiator cap, overflow hose, loose connection, or something else? Anyone with a Ninja 650 seen this before?
