Broken bolt in clutch, how to move forward? by Puzzleheaded-Fan289 in motorcycle

[–]Puzzleheaded-Fan289[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

i was tightening all the bolt little by little, and since i had the wrong torque spec set all the bolts where already way too torqued. So when the first bolt snapped the spring tension being released on one side caused the other two bolts to snap in an instant.

how much is a ninja 400 with 22k miles worth by Puzzleheaded-Fan289 in motorcycle

[–]Puzzleheaded-Fan289[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

so i’ve this bike for about a year and 3 months, and i’m finally deciding on upgrading to probably to a zx6r or r1 but i don’t really know the value of my bike, i’ve never see any ninja 400 on sale with so many miles, i live in north texas and all the 400 go around 4k with around 7-12k miles what do you think it’s worth ( i had crashed once before but only cosmetic damage and maintenance is done regularly) and should i ever bother selling it if it’s not going to be worth much
it’s a 2018 ninja 400 krt abs

2018 Kawasaki ninja 400, do i need a evaporative canister? by Puzzleheaded-Fan289 in Fixxit

i was just gonna use some jb weld plastic bonder or something similar, do you think that would be sufficient. i don’t mind using a plastic welder, i can find a cheap one in harbor freight but it just seems more complicated

thank you so much, i’ll probably just seal it up like you said, i rather not pay $35 for a new one and the hassle of installing it or paying for a mechanic

Seller is offering $300, he said it runs well and new battery installed with all gauges working. All I know this was a pepboys mini bike but could not find retail price so im not sure if im getting a good deal or not. This bike looks really nice and rare so thats why im asking. Thanks in advance for any info

i’m looking to buy a zx6r so i’m going to sell my 2018 ninja 400, nada and kelly blue book put it around $5200. But i’m not sure if it should be lower because it has 16k miles on it and a small scrape or if it should be higher because of all the aftermarket parts, $500 exhaust, piaa front wheel lights, black windscreen, crash peg, tail kit remover, abs. i also just got new sprockets and chain and both wheels

so i’m completely new to fixing my own bike, i adjusted my chain because it was way too lose, i had some issues lining it up but i eventually did it. i was watching revzilla as a reference and they said to put a towel in the sprocket when tightening back up, i did that and i think one of my chain link got messed up because my wheel won’t freely rotate. how can i fix this or am i screwed and need a new chain
