Just got my Ninja 400 yesterday. Took it home and installed some T-Rex Racing Frame Sliders today.
Excited!!!

Very nice. Looking at your bike colour I'm guessing your an Aussie?? :biggrin:

Just new to this so I’ll add and update as I get around to it.

But yes indeed an Aussie haha, and I like this colour better than the flat green, especially in the sunlight. The way it’s metallic and looks different on light conditions just tickles me in the right places.

About 70 km ride to check out new tank grips. Was a bit windy today, but the bike is surprisingly stable, even at 110 kph.
Not showing the ugly exhaust side Still haven't got rid of that and the fender.

Like our bikes we all have our 'better' side :biggrin:
Those tank grips will be just the ticket when your dragging a knee through the bends!

Do you normally park your Ninja inside your home?

No, I bring it in to do work on it in the livingroom or the back yard. That spot is actually where I park my Husky.

What brand & size of soft case is that and how do you like it? @Fuby It looks like a good setup.

Thanks.. Main compartment measures: 13” L x 11” W x 7” H / 9.5” H expanded

Thats the Nelson Rigg CL-1060-S Sport Tail Bag I got from Revzilla.. it does sit nicely behind me with 2 straps under the seat.. RevZilla has alot of Nelson Rigg on discounted prices and they seem to get good reviews so I grabbed the tail bag, Nelson Rigg CL-2014 Journey Mini Tank Bag (Magnet) and Nelson-Rigg Sport 40 Saddle Bags just in case I travel further than Wal-Mart.. But I don't think combined its all over 45 liters of storage.. ( I will do a "Touring Picture soon lol) The tail bag at the moment holds gloves, sunglasses, towel, baseball cap, helmet lock and a few other things .. it also expands another 2 inches which would probably hold a pair of summer shorts, teeshirt, socks and boxers.. but I haven't used it at that HUGE size yet.. Nelson Rigg to "me", seems like fairly good quality on the cheap..

Good review. I'm trying to figure out what will work for staying out a few days and maybe even a little camping trip. Single person tent looks like it would go just fine along with a thin sleeping bag in a backpack and clothes in saddle bags.

Seeing you mentioned a one man tent..I use to do that and Hammock camping.. So, just for the heck of it I laid the saddlebags over the tail bag and noticed this makes a nice flat surface that would hold a small duffle or tent bag across of the combination of bags... plus nothing hangs down towards the tires.. I really don't know if the tail bag would collapse though.. the saddlebags are formed so they would keep their shape fine. There are enough d hooks etc to keep all three piece together nicely. With camping light with a mini stove and some mountain home meals, I think it could work.. Sleeping bag can be rolled and bungie it up front on the fairing.. maybe..meh.. probably not lol.. oh a note on the saddlebags..they small..and they do not have rain covers (could use a dry bag inside them I guess) nor do they lock. You can use a small luggage lock on the tail bag,.


Edit: For sliding off topic a bit , I went back and LIKED every picture in this thread.. mainly because there is no such thing as an ugly Ninja 400!! my apologies..

Thank you so much. You are definately a big help. I may have to do a dry run after my next work schedule. Hammock would probably be better in this heat. I didnt even think about that.:grin:
