Did you get a used 1987-2007, or a 2008-2009 model? The first thing you should do on the older model is replace the stock tires! I went with Pirelli Sport Demons and couldn't be happier.

Congrats on the ninja - welcome to the club!!! There is a great ninja forum: www.ninjette.org if you're interested.

I enjoy the ninja but the gear ratio is crazy. You can shift into third before getting to the end of your driveway!!

Enjoy it. Have fun. Be safe.

I have a 500, not a 250, but i am now in love with kawasakis... they are prety bullet proof... they are hard to break... at least mechanically. ENJOY!
