Ninja 250R Scorpion Exhaust

Scorpion Exhaust for Ninja 250RAnother day, and another new exhaust for the Ninja 250R. This exhaust comes from Scorpion Exhausts (Who pretty much make exhausts to fix anything on wheels from bikes, cars, atv’s and even scooters)

This particular exhaust for the Ninja 250R doesn’t really stand out from the crowd looks wise, but it does have a great little sound to it. (See Video on the second page) In addition, Scorpion products tend to be pretty easy to come by, and easy to get good deals on — So I see this exhaust as becoming more and more popular over time. In addition, this exhaust was designed based off of stock fueling. So, no jet kit or mods are needed to support this guy, which makes this exhaust a great option for people just looking for a lil more sound and scoot..

Available in three finishes Stainless, Titanium, and Titanium Flame. Details and where to buy can be found here.

[Thanks for the tip NH!]

Micron Slipon / Endcan Exhaust

micron exhaust ninja 250This is the first exhaust I have seen coming out of England for the 2008+ Ninja 250R. This is a nice looking Slipon (Or as they call it “End Can”)… Not details if it is just for the Fuel Injected models. (Do we know if that even makes a difference in exhaust choices yet? ) Colors Available are Stainless and Titanium, and the look to me is sorta a mix between Yoshi and Two Bros. Overall a really nice looking piece.. And if you’re worried about it being too loud, there is an additional silencer available for £50 (About 100$ USD)

Details:

DELTA Sport An evolution of Micron’s hugely popular Delta+ range, our new Delta Sport endcans feature the same, sleek oval design but boast revised inlet and outlet technology. And with more technology for the same price, it’s also astonishing value.

Microns site has a link to a video — but it doesn’t look like it’s online yet. I’ll update this post as soon as they get something up.

Manufacture: Micron Exhausts
URL: Here
Prices:
- Titanium (RMK70/0T) £324.99 ~ $650 USD
- Stainless (RMK70/0A) £249.99 ~ $500USD

Galfer Stainless Kit - Installed and reviewed

Galfer Stainless Brake Line KitI was really excited when Beast over at KF gave me permission to repost this info about his stainless brake line upgrade. I have been waiting to do this for a while now — just waiting for atleast one guinea pig to make sure the kit has no issues… ;)

Originally posted about here I’m really surprised it took almost a month for someone to finally install and put some pictures up. But never the less, Beast gave the kit an as expected awesome review.

First off, if you’re not familiar with the benefits of this upgrade, please read the link below:
Link

My personal review of the upgrade is that these are must-have. Next to the Dynojet carb kit (install + tune), this is probably the best thing I’ve done to the bike. The brake levers (both front and rear) are incredibly firm and responsive now. It feels like I’m gripping the rotors with my own hands.

If you can’t already tell, I’m having a tough time trying to put to words exactly how much better the brakes “feel” haha.

This is really exciting news considering that spongy Brakes on the 250 are one of the biggest complaints you hear from the peanut gallery. In fact I’m so excited — I’m trying to get my hands on 2 sets now… You know.. perhaps for a 2Fiddy 4th o’ July giveaway… ;)

Area-P Quiet Core Exhaust

Area-P Quiet Core ExhaustHands down I have to say that the Area-P might be the most popular exhaust for the Ninja 250R. And it makes sense, it has a great mix of price / performance, and sounds pretty damn good.

Following on the coat tails of their original exhaust the Quiet Core tames out the sound and switches out the shortie canister for a longer full canister with the same great looks.
Pricing stays the same starting at $450 (Stainless) to $495 (Carbon fiber).

A dyno chart for the Quiet Core is not available yet, but Area-P states that power delivery is pretty much the same for the quiet core as it is for their standard exhaust. Also, a jet kit is is not needed for this exhaust, but is recommended.

“After testing several other production bikes, we recommend Dynojet kit # 2193 or Factory Pro kit (or similar) to help optimize the fuel curve and further increase power, as the production bikes do have a tendency to run lean in the low/mid range especially.”

Quiet Core vs. Standard Sound Levels:

Idle 5000rpm
Standard muffler (12″ long, 2.0″ core) 90 dbA 105 dbA
Quiet muffler (18″ long, 1.75″ core) 83 dbA 95 dbA

Galfer Stainless Brake Lines for Ninja 250R

Ninja 250R Stainless Brake LinesI have been watching the Galfer website like a hawk recently waiting for them to release the part numbers for pre made stainless braided brake lines for the 2008+ Ninja 250R… Still no luck, but I saw over at kForums that they have released part numbers.

Stainless brake lines are a great upgrade — not just for the track monkey — but also for the typical canyon killer. By upgrading to stainless lines your brakes will become more predictable. As you use your brakes, and the brake fluid heats up — the OEM rubber hoses will start to expand and can lead to braking fade and spongy leavers. By replacing the lines, you eliminate this expansion making the braking feel and response much more linear.

Note: Galfer doesn’t sell direct. So please contact one of their distributors to order.

Manufacture: Galfer
Price: ??

Part Numbers:
Front Line: FK003D674
Rear Line: FK003D674R

Yoshimura Exhaust for 08 Ninja 250R

Yoshimura carbon fiber exhaust for NinjaOhhhhhh la la.. I’m in love with the carbon Yoshimura exhaust… That thing it tight.. One of the great things about the Ninja 250R motorcycle is that most of the riders have nothing to prove, so you can buy parts that make you happy, not just the parts that give you performance or functionality…

In this case, you get a little of both. Yoshimura (aka Yoshi, aka Yosh) has brought SIX new exhausts to the market. 3 Full systems, and 3 Slipons.

yoshimura exhaust stainlessYoshimura TRC Full Exhaust: (All prices USD)
$719.00 TRC Stainless/Carbon Full System
$699.00 TRC Stainless/Titanium Full System
$599.00 TRC Stainless/Stainless Full System

Yoshimura TRC Slip-On Exhaust: (All prices USD)
$549.00 TRC Stainless/Carbon Slip-On
$499.00 TRC Stainless/Titanium Slip-On
$429.00 TRC Stainless/Stainless Slip-On
yoshimura exhaust titanium

The dyno charts from this exhaust show an increase of 3hp over peak but with up to an impressive 7hp more from 10,000RPM - 13,000RPM. (No torque graph was available at this time) The only questionable performance is a small dip in power from 4,000-5,500 RPM. But, this is most likely from the fact that they are running a DynaJet Kit on the test bike (Recommended for both Full and Slip on systems!) and it’s fattening up the already lean bottom end of the stock jets.
