@@dude6783 haha my first bike was a ninja 500 and had every one of those problems too. Couldn't ever get the thing to run properly then someone stole it. Oh well.
@@mintysquinty2989 lol i feel that sorry it got stolen my bikes acting up again i think its the petcock now the bike dont like 7k rpm i think ill keep it around but just buy a nicer bike like an r1 or a bmw 1000rr or cbr1000rr or ninja zx10 or something lol this bike is def not an everyday ride if it has a problem every couple months
@@reefegaming559 yeah not a good feeling when you're cruising along and your bike starts bogging out and dies because your fuel level hit the reserve cutoff haha done that a few times now I just stick to 150 miles but I also like to rev the motor to redline and consume more fuel that way
@@douglaspropperii5477 yea I did that about 2 weeks ago lmao. I actually went on a long ride yesterday and hit 207 before filling and didn’t even need reserve
Its been a few years since i had that car, i never knew the muffler number unfortunately since i paid an independent shop to source and install everything
@@mahlonwest277 from what I remember they are the same. I only had a custom 3.5” tip installed on it. The muffler inlet and outlet should be close to stock pipe size if i recall. Center in side out. Then again still not too sure.

Was my first bike. Love that sound
Same here, a '97. I miss it.
If they wouldve spread the gearing out more the 500 ninja couldve done 130-140 but they gave it a tight gear box
Great bike just hate the carb issues it gave me left me stranded 5 times
What carb issues?
@@danielleeson7622 air fuel mixture was fucked up and and carb was dirty and the petcoc was fucked too and there was an airbubble in the fuel filter
Same reason i let this one go for. It ran good enough. But im not carb savy and I ended getting a new bike

Rare bike awesome 😎
They made half a million of them.....
Yeah not rare at all.
800€ in France with a fresh engine and bodywork
Question, I’m buying one tomorrow and I want to know if it has a gas gauge or low on gas indicator
They do not. It's not that common for pre 2010 bikes to have a fuel gauge. Just open the fuel cap and look inside no big deal.
Just run the bike out of gas until reserve and check your odometer to see how many miles is good to fill up. I fill up every 150 miles usually
@@douglaspropperii5477 yea I get sumwhere from 170-200 miles before I need reserve but I fill before just because

how’d you get the camera like that?
Go-pro suction mounted to the windscreen. Wouldnt recommend doing it that way though. Thing fell off at one point
please check comments on is300 videos you have posted. i would like to know what muffler you used paired with your resonator delete

@@F1racer2007 could i have the dimensions of the muffler? they are not matching between videos and i believe it is the same muffler
@@mahlonwest277 from what I remember they are the same. I only had a custom 3.5” tip installed on it. The muffler inlet and outlet should be close to stock pipe size if i recall. Center in side out. Then again still not too sure.
@@F1racer2007 okay thank you so much. your video descriptions said 2.5” in one video and 3” for the inlet size
@@mahlonwest277 yeah. The 3 was for the tip on the back
Change the sprockets and might ve a little faster
I’m 5’3 do you think my ride height is good for the bike
Should be fine. Im 6’4 and it felt small. Its a bit lower in the seating compared to what i ride now
No
