    Bought Ninja 250.. Couple of queries

    HI guys

    After much deliberation, i finally bought a ninja 250 (2009).. It is a nice machine and I am already loving it... I have a couple of new-biker queries if someone can sort..

    1. I have owned 2 strokes before, in which we used to mix oil and petrol. I guess I don't need to do it in my 4 stroke ninja.
    2. How ofter do I need to lubricate/check the chain?
    3. How ofter should I service it? It has only 2500 on the odometer and the last I know is that it was serviced at 1000k.

    Would be awesome if someone can help.

    Cheers
    N

    Where did you buy it? These are all simple things that should have been explained to you when you purchased your bike.

    You don't need to mix oil/petrol in a four stroke.
    I lube my chain every 500km/two tanks or before a large ride.
    Change oil/filter every 5000km (I do, whether or not you do is up to you)

    Did you not get a Ninja 250/EX250 service manual?
