Any new words on when the .12 is going to hit the shelves? I am very interested to see how it performs.

Ilia

try gearing up 1/2 to one tooth. I could hear that it not has the same RPM but that has to do with torque. I have Os recab V-spec and i gear that 15/48 instead of 14/46. I can gear that 1/2 o thooth higher than my RS05 modified because torque it a lot better!

Ws 7 is liked to gear 1/2 a tooth lower, 14/48.

I think you should test some moore before you judge, do not seem like you have done alot of testing.

Also, Falcon ( father brand of Boss, Ninja) has conical manifolds short and medium. That gives moore bottom end and you can gear harder.

The .21 RO1 on Road has been recalled for a few weeks. The off road .21 is now available. I am going to test the one I have very soon, hopefully this weekend if the rain holds off. ;) Looks a lot like a Novarossi on the inside. :sneaky:

Not really a recall, It's just that the .21's (MR .21 R01) are the one's that are not being released because they want to make sure everything will be perfect before releasing it, but for the buggy engine anyone who have a buggy motor that have a problem should return it to the dealer where they buy it from otherwise enjoy the power of the motor.

HarKonnenD 04-27-2006 03:59 PM

Ah ok. That's good to see that's cleared up.

I've seen Ninja engines. They are cheaper because they also looks cheap. Rust in the LSN when it's brand new?? The only thing which is cool is their packaging ;) I'm always a big fan of GRP, but now... :( :cry:

:eek: :eek: RUST!... No wonder they recall it back. :eek: :eek:

they have definately been recalled, well here in australia anyway. the importer has all his stock taken back from him.....only the .21 on-road there doesnt seem to be a problem with the buggy motor !! it appears they are snapping the rod just under the wrist pin, probably mainly due in part that they have ridiculous compression

Dear All Dealers:

We would first like to apologize for the delay in delivering the Ninja engines and parts.

We are also very sorry to inform you that it is highly likely that some of .21 on-road engines may have defective parts. For this reason, we are suspending all sales of .21 on-road engines until the engine is at maximum quality. GRP and Mugen Seiki have already started to inspect this matter.

As some of you may have heard, we have started the distribution of Ninja products in the Asian and European market. However, the same procedure will be taken worldwide, and the sales of .21 on-road engines will be stopped and inventory will be held until further notice. As of engines that have already been sold to customers we are asking to please explain to them to either give a refund or exchange them for new engines, for any engines returned for malfunctioning and not due to mishandling of the product.

This is truly a very difficult decision for us; however, we believe it is very important in order to provide the highest quality product and receive maximum customer satisfaction.

From now on, we guarantee you that we will do our best to support you if you have any problems or claims regarding the .21 off road engine, .12 engine, .28 engines, and the other Ninja products.

We are very sorry for your inconvenience.

We thank you for your understanding and patience.

Sincerely,

Shoji Murayama

E.T. 04-30-2006 09:38 AM

Same problem to the OS .12CVR P shaft too. Happened to many racers here & I broke mine in under 3 gallons...& there is no refund or exchange. :mad:

Glad the air is clear now. Still waiting.... :sneaky:
