Three Power Mods To Start And Finish With | Ninja 300 

Haha, yeah. I think Moto recently did a build where mods had the same value as the bike new. It is a pretty easy thing to do. But is money really an object when it comes to creating the perfect bike? ;)

If we are talking about approx $800-900 to make the 300 get ninja 400 kinds of power, that seems reasonable vs selling and swapping. (at current used prices in WA, after selling the 300 to get a 400, difference of $1,500 plus taxes, so almost $2,000 to upgrade from a ninja 300 to 400. I could almost get another used bike for that or get a few upgrades to keep the smiles up)

He doesn’t make videos anymore fortunatelyz

Thanks dude. Very informative. Great input.

Hahaha, best comment of the day. Thanks man. Love it. Hahaha, You got me rolling.

ThisLifeRiding do you plan on sticking with the 300 for a while?

Yes. My goal is to eventually hit 100k miles. I will probably get additional bikes but the Ninja 300 will stay my main rider for the forceable future.

well im starting to look for one 300 myself, let me tell you why hello my name is Ragimund and i have a problem, i have a honda 4 cyl addiction and i have to put it under control the thing is, if only the little 300 was just a tad 'hotter' if only it could rev up to 15 000...i would already be up on one its already awsome, almost there...i need the 'zing' to keep my weaning working correctly, i need to be able to go all out but without outrageous speed, and the 300 give that, i would just like a tiny little bit more zing at high rpm and a 15k red line to make me 100% happy im so tired of people wanting 'smooth powerband' on those kind of bike...the market always like to pander to idiots and cretins instead of the people who really love bikes

Mike T buy you can pin it through every gear without breaking the law on a 600 haha

Nice man, good set of mods.

Haha, Alma School is a street. What you don't know, is I turned three times after mentioning Alma School. But yes, very funny.

+Chris16Bit Hey, thanks man.

Thanks man.

I will be patiently awaiting your future decals. :)

Haha, yeah. Unfortunately, this particular trifecta of mods is specific to fuel injected bikes. Doesn't help much with your carbonated beasts.

carbonated lmao lol

+Tristen Hogue I would say, if you plan on keeping the bike for a while, save up and get the one you want. If you only plan to keep it for another year or so, a less expensive exhaust may be a good idea. Do take the value of the bike into consideration. No reason to spend a grand on an exhaust when the bike is only worth 1500. As for decals, a lot of motovloggers have decals for their channel and whatnot. Same with brands. Decals are a pretty common thing to trade and pass around. I figure if anyone wants to send me a sticker or decal I will display it for them. Plus, it will add a little spice to the bike. After I made this video, I was thinking I might add them to the side panels under the seat as well. Could give the bike a pretty interesting looks.

Haha, thank you?

it was meant for a compliment :(

Haha, I figured. ;)

Haha, everyone starts that way. Give it time, you will have it modded out in no time.

+Eleazar Leija (El) Sweet dude. Congratulations!

Haha, thanks man.

gtdrummerdude not all bikes are the same. Modern vehicles have flow restrictions built into the exhaust and/or air box to stop someone from switching their exhaust out and gaining 50 hp and trashing any idea of clean running vehicles

Restricting air flow and having clean emissions are two separate things. Unrelated. I have a degree in automotive technology. The Ninja 300 has a second set of butterflies behind the main butterflies inside the throttle body. The ecm controls them to smooth power delivery and make lower gears smoother. The best thing for these bikes is to have a direct ecm tune not a piggyback power commander tune. With a direct tune the tuner can change the throttle valve maps.

I would love to do it someday but it is pretty expensive. Sooner, if I get a sponsored day, but if not, it is going to be a while.

ThisLifeRiding I definitely understand that. I think because it is a dream of mine despite the cost some day I will just throw in the cash and do it for a day. I think it would be an AMAZING experience.

+Arctic Gaming Yeah, no joke. It is something I would really like to do at least once or twice.

Yeah, I like the idea of loud exhausts. Safer for us.

danmoto gp exhaust backfires sounds pretty awesome lol I love yoshmura but I just couldn't afford it and needed something louder

Brotha driving 150 miles a day would hurt your back in a vehicle too 😂. Don’t worry

check the sprocket ratios, it can make a bit of difference with low end torque

I've replaced both and have much better throttle response doesn't seem like it is running lean

*These aren't closed-loop feedback checking with oxygen & adjusting,* like a car or more expensive bike would. These are given a quick factory tune/map to rough match the stock setup. When you replace the air filter, as an example, you will get better throttle response, but it will run more lean. (Note: I would do this before the exhaust, unless you really care about sound). Just replacing either an air filter/snorkel delete or just the exhaust is not too much change in airflow, so _probably_ ok. But airflow is a stacking issue: if you have one restriction, *lessening the other restrictions helps a bit, but it's still mostly controlled by the worst restriction.* But if you remove both worst restrictions, they play off each other and make a much bigger difference than individually. 1+1= 3... And in so doing, now you are way out of the stock airflow range and dangerously lean (and losing power and responsiveness for running excessively lean & hot). PS. even for a 90's corolla, an air filter was a noticeable improvement. If a couple thousand pound hunk of metal with only a few percent difference in power is noticeable, it's going to be noticeable on a bike. For comparison, the stock ninja 300 vs ninja 400 is 5.8hp difference. *Do you think you'd notice the difference between hopping on a ninja 300 and a ninja 400?* I sure would. And price point comparison: if you already have a ninja 300, is it worth trying to buy a ninja 400... if you can get ninja 400 kinds of power from about $800 worth of parts? (plus consider sales tax if swapping bikes in WA, like me) And for that, the ninja 300 probably actually get better gas mileage (depends on how far you go with increasing airflow, but simply retuning to be less lean from stock with or without other mods is an efficiency improvement)

XxS1l3nTxa1Mx noooo the $10 ones are the normal stock ones and the $50 ones are after market better flowing and reusable ones. Such as K&N air filters 🔥

It is to cool down. The venting on a motorcycle only works when you are moving. So most people will open and close their visors. We open as they slow down to stop and close them as they accelerate to assure proper cooling.

My visor fogs up when I'm sitting at a stop light with the shield closed

Hmm, really? I will have to check that out.

Yep! Probably going to get one for mine.

Nice man.

+ten thousand Sure.

Here is a link(not affiliate) www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0083T65PY

+Juliana Kolb Got to keep it clean. Only way to stay classy. ;)

haha i think its awesome that you stay respectable. I mean like yummyr6(whom i do love dearly) just kinda screams cuss words which is funny at times buts its nice to have something different :)

+Juliana Kolb I think I'll stay as family friendly as I can. I'm sure I won't be perfect at it but hey. Figure I might as well make the world a little bit better one video at a time. Thanks Juliana, You Rock!

Arizona, unfortunately, I just have much time to ride now though. Thanks for the offer man.

I hope to have those made up some time here in the next few months.

I think those will sell real well Ik me and a couple of my freinds would love to buy some for our motorcycles

+Nicholas Gardner Haha, cool. Good to know. I'll let you know when I have them made.

Yeah, I hear that. If it didn't cost so much, I would have done it a long time ago. Insurance is going to be different from region to region, company to company, and person to person. But, for me, it is in the ball park of 80 bucks a month with full coverage.

+ThisLifeRiding Wow!! Who do you have? I live in AZ too and am planning on getting a bike but all the quotes I'm gettin are insane!!

If you are under 24, and/or have a supersport, your insurance is going to be pretty crazy. When Jake first got a black R6, his insurance was a grand a month. My insurance is inexpensive because I have a small bike, good driving record, and am over 24.

+ThisLifeRiding I have a bit of riding experience and was looking into something with just a twin cylinder like a Ninja 650. Ahh guess that clears things up, I'm only 20. Well that sucks haha.. thanks for the quick reply!

+Crusades No problem man. Hope you find something that works for you. Dat Ninja 650 tho...

Thanks man.

Nah, it will probably blow up.

Extremely. It's known as the bike version of the Toyota Camry

I stopped trying to answer that question a while back. Pricing of shops and materials swing widely from region to region. Take a peak at the owners manual and call up your local shop for estimates. Take into account the rate you rack up miles and it should be pretty easy for you to find for your region. Hope that helps man.

Don't know. Haven't tried yet. Certainly would be interesting to see if you could.

ThisLifeRiding thx for replying:) new subscriber now

Cool man. Welcome to the family.

ThisLifeRiding :)

Check out spacepod! He had a 300 that he got up to I think 40hp!

+Blue Moto Hmm, thanks for the info.

nw :) I saw your vid about the mechanic trying to sell you new tyres, etc and it reminded me of the salesman who tried to sell me a $100+ air filter cos "u can't reuse the stock air filter" haha

Haha, yep.

I couldn't do that to myself, 125 is simply too small for bigger roads. I just decided to wait till i turn 19 to get my A2, then hop on a ninja 300 like maboi TLR here (or i MIGHT fork out for a brand new cbr250rr when it comes out, coz that bike looks like nothing else). A 300 is enough, especially in london :D

KillerByte nice hehe :D but A license is to expensive atm so i just need to pay few euros and take a 4 hour drive lesson and i get a 372 code on my B license to ride a 125cc with max 15 :( so my first bike will be a mt125

Mario x Jolien haha i understand :( that mt125 is lovely tho! Good choice

Dude, I wish I had started on a 125. Those little bikes are the best. I want one so bad.

ThisLifeRiding why don't safe for one ? :p

+Siloé Reb Is that a power mod?

For use it!

Siloé Reb don't worry TLR, this ones just a little dumb. He doesn't understand

No, he obviously just doesn't have great English, which isn't his fault. No, it's not a power mod but why do you want more power? More speed. And it is a speed mod.

Guys he means a quick shifter- less time between gears means more power down on the road!

also awesome vids dood

Thanks for the input.

Its gay

Hahaha, what can I say. ;)

nos, turbos, and big bore kits

Haha, well, I guess that is another option.

I think the options in this video are the best options for the majority of riders and the options you suggest are more for advanced riders. Not advances as in, skill, but advanced as in, know what to expect from such mods and the risks involved. Perhaps people who can deal with the risks if something goes wrong.
