However!
They also have tiny little batteries, and if you try it in the city, where you are coasting to a complete stop and have to use the starter, you can kill it very quick. I learned this the hard way. Spent a few weeks running and jumping on to get it started until I got around to replacing the battery.
Ironically enough, i EOC and use the starter ALOT and i dont really experience battery power issues with my ninja.
