I see... Chain, sprocket, EO...

the stock ZXR400 air filter costs how much? Can change to a K&N (washable) type? If can...how much too? And when changing EO...need to change oil filter as well? how much again? Many thanks

Stock i think is about $60 i think did't change before. When i got the bike i immediatey change to K&N. Only cost me S$70- and 2 months of wait. Got it from Mah Motor Parts oppsite Sim Lim Tower.

 

Changing EO is the same as other 400cc. XJR not included cause only 2litre.

EO onli 3 litres filter every 2 oil change. Honda ones can use. But prefer stock or K&N.

Oh..K&N air filter is only $10 bucks more than stock?...ok..then when it's time to change, I'll get K&N..cos can wash and reuse

 

OFFICIAL, you mean ZXR400 can use CBR400 oil filter or many other ones? Or is there a particular model number for it's oil filter? Price about?

[k2kiwi]

Get K&N... it is better and cheaper in the long run. Tricky bit is you can't get it off the shelf, got to order. Oil filter is common size... I always change them whenever I change oil. U can use Honda or any after market ones with the same size. Never used their so called original ones cos they tried to charge me $25 for it! Crazy!

Then where do I order the K&N air filter for ZXR400 from? And Honda oil filters or other aftermarket types cost how much compared to stock kawa oil filters at $25?

[k2kiwi]

U can pretty much order from anybody... even LAB, provided u can catch ah boy's attention at all, haha... other then that it's everywhere else. mah motor lah, motoworld lah.... i think motoworld distributes K&N, so you might get it faster?

[k2kiwi]

Now... my screen is old, yellowing and scratched... anybody got any idea where I can find an aftermarket one that looks good? Any lobang? Or anybody got spare ones? It's hard to believe but our buddy il4 told me he bought the last one in singapore.... aaarrrrrggggghhhhh!!!!

Ok thanks...maybe I go LAB to check prices first...

and oh..regarding the screen... I found a webpage ( overseas) for you...maybe useful? It's a double bubble screen type...comes in different colours too..maybe you want a green colour one to match your green Ninja but damned..it's gonna cost you 78 pounds ($235 including delivery chgs to SG) for that piece of plastic

[k2kiwi]

Ya buddy i know this site... the price really put me off too. So I'm looking for a local old stock or something that fall off the lorry, hehe...

[SK I]

Whahaha..fall off the lorry..

bro...this one even better!

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/KAWASAKI-ZXR400-TOP-...4QQcmdZViewItem

Not only you get the tinted screen, the matching green top fairing, but also the 2 vacuum cleaner hoses!!! all for 75pounds not incl of delivery chgs...dun even know if they will send it to SG

[SK I]

Ok...now I found Airblade double bubble @ 40pounds incl delivery to UK..so maybe to SG abit more..if they do

Engine Armor

Race Fairing

If you guys are interested don't mind a MO

[SK I]

Wow...maybe too early for me..haha...

btw, how much does a new pair of tyres cost? And can ZXR400 put frame sliders? Any specific type available in the market? Think I also gotta find a pair of gloves and FF helmet liao ...$$$

[k2kiwi]

Of cos u could put a slider... FF helmets in my opinion should be your priority, spend on a good one. It's a life saver! And make a diff if u become a scar face or not... haha

[SK I]

Are most sliders the same? Or the screw thread varies greatly? Anyone here put a slider meant for other models on your ZXR400?

The FF I'll probably get a MHR lah...and basic gloves... I'm not a racer..but if I become one later..then I'll get better equipment

Why a MHR?

HJC are better in quality and it's almost the same or cheaper?

I was beginning to wonder where the thread starter went...haha

So you're a sailer?

In fact..I always like to stop by a particular motor shop that mods fibre glass fairings for VFRs, RVFs, CBRs to give them a slick tail

Never did ask them how much to mod...but I know a CBR400L model with a moded tail costs about 80000baht (S$3480) with license plate and slightly cheaper for a bike with no plate..

so maybe mod the tail is abt 10-15k ($400-$600)? Is that ex? How much they chg in SG and JB???

The screen hor...if I have a solid piece...I might be able to get it customed made at maybe S$50 or cheaper with Acrylic...how much to buy an original piece in SG???

But hor..ZXR400 very rare in TH...mostly VFRs and CBRs and a little RVFs...even GSXR400 also hard to find...maybe in Bangkok can see..

CL-14 is about S$160 ~ S$190 depend on design.

There are about S120/- ones but i recommand CL-14. Personally has 2 of them and saw someone flung off his bike exiting a turn on track and hitting head and all. Not much damage done to the brain section but bike gonner.

Jb has better pricing for that. Check the "On The Track" Section. details are there.

Singapore will be first Motor. They issit on me leaving my bike behind when i told and gave measurements on what to do. Was told by people that they ichy hand things off bike.

[k2kiwi]

May I add to that... 1st Motor the boss is not honest. If in the event u have to let him do anything... Be very very careful when dealing with him.

[SK I]

Like that also can!!? Points taken...

Will check out the CL-14s OFFICIAL...
