400cc-ish bikes are really in the blurry middle ground between large displacement and small displacement bikes.. I have the 400r and it's definitely a smaller bike downsized, so while it's hella fun to ride I always get the feeling it's just a big bike with a smaller engine rather than its own...

Just passed 5300km.. No work commuting just distance rides and city riding. M1 at the start of the season was limiting.

Same. I`m just under 6` and put on aftermarket sport bars onto the 400r and I really enjoy it. Back hurts after long rides but they always say the first place to hurt is your weakest!

This guy's eyes are soooooo red... LMAO

I was on Twyn Rivers earlier the same day you were by a few hours. I was really shocked and was told you were doing well - best of health to you! Nail that S.O.B.!

Nice ride. I have a black 400R. I'm not sure if you're looking at some mods, but I would start by cutting off the fender below the plate to start and showing off some that rear tire (it looks better right away). How do you like it?

SV650, white. He runs it stock.

Newbie, just got my M2 this year :)

One of the posters commented on the more upright seating position of the 650R which is correct compared to the SV, it is definetely more upright with the stock bars. I can't comment on power delivery as I'm using the 400R but I've put on sport bars and love the feel and the short wheelbase on...

You: Long blonde hair, dark visor, looked like a red ninja 250 (wasn't sure) black leather jacket heading Westbound on Sheppard with almost no traffic around you (middle lane?) after Don Mills. Time: 6:50ish-7 PM today. Me: Black Ninja, all black gear heading Eastbound, far right lane swarmed...

Was out in full gear (black everything, leather jackets, gloves, helmet, bike) yesterday and got some VERY interesting looks from the cagers sitting in shorts in their A/C controlled vans on the 401W heading back from CSCS @ Mosport yesterday. Had a few riders comment to us at 7/11 how crazy we...

Got HIDs put in on my Ninja there, no problems since, the guy has plenty of experience.

How can you submit a report on someone when you're riding in the opposite direction from them?

I believe I've made several efforts to make my case and explain the rationale for my purchase. I felt it important to represent the newer/novice rider and this perspective. My point in speaking of the R6 is to establish that this bike is no weakling and can keep pace.. I wasn't trying to make...

DemonPig - you talk about the Ninaj400 not having the same performance, and you cite a HP statistic as proof of this, sorry but I don't really pick up on that argument. I agree the engine is obviously not the same, but you fail to consider all else that has gone into this bike *including* the...

I love reading the comments and hearing what certain riders say about the new Ninja 400R without either having ridden on it or be qualified to offer an opinion. Not naming names or flaming, but the OP really just asked people who have one about it... not what you think is a better bike for a...

I just met with a whole bunch of riders Tuesday night there.. some people coming from a ride, others just on a quick stop. Met with some guys and went up to Woodbine/16th. Earlier tonight (Wednesday) there were lots of car meets but because of the severe rain lots of people left / no bikes...

I'm also interested in getting HID's installed here.. please weight in if you have any experience here.

+1 The posing usually has benefits, as other riders come by and a ride usually ensues. I'm a new rider too, coming down from Scarborough. I'm not sure if you'd rather ride after rush hour or after 4pm.

Firstly, sorry to hear and glad you're ok. A situation like this might have scared me off a bike for a while. Secondly, when I approach an intersection the principles of defensive driving take over. Just like in my car I look to maintain eye contact with whoever is turning left. Do they see...
