    Advice on 2008 Ninja 250

    Hey everyone just recently purchased a 2008 Ninja 250 running great so far! just some minor issues i need advice on.

    1. Bike idle hunting on cold start, wondering if that is normal since it is cold start.
    2. Bike backfiring a lil, just revving it in general and abit on load.
    3. When back is not in use, sitting in the garage it gives off like a pressure sound? Sounds like that bike is farting seriously lol!

    Cheers!

    Sounds pretty normal depending on how much it is hunting. How much choke do you use on cold start?
    2. Bike backfiring a lil, just revving it in general and abit on load.
    A service should sort this
    3. When back is not in use, sitting in the garage it gives off like a pressure sound? Sounds like that bike is farting seriously lol!
    Normal and something you learn to love owning a kawasaki. It is the tank breather and if it bothers you that much you can get it slightly drilled out to be a bigger hole which stops the squeal.

    Cheers!

    We are small and exposed, and probably moving too fast for our own good, but that's no reason not to enjoy every minute of the ride.

    Nothing wrong with it mate, mine did all that from new, never missed a beat and yours never will
    Our Father, Who art at Phillip Island, Hallowed be thy name
    Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done
    In the backroads as it is on the freeway
    Give us this day our high-octane premium fuel
    And forgive us our lanesplitting
    As we forgive the four wheel drives, the volvos and the taxis
    And lead us not into gravel corners
    But deliver us from hand-held radars
    For thine is thy leather, thy denim, thy Gore-Tex and thy Kevlar
