Excellent post.

His throttle bodies are already 2mm smaller than the stock Ninja carbs so the kit would be too small to fuel the 500 very well at full power. It is really made for up to 125cc scooters and is barely big enough for the Ninja. It is a give away price right now while he rolls out production though. I'm sure it will go up eventually if demand increases. Those wide band sensors aren't cheap.
