There are a few mods, but the cheapest thing to do is buy a bigger bike! And what's wrong with your bike? It's one of the fastest 250's you'll find!

You can change the oil, spark plug, adjust the valve to spec,get a muzzy exhaust, and jet the carb. The 2 best things is getting the valves adjusted and carb jetted by someone that knows what there doing. This will bring a lot of life back to the bike.

Yeah, good luck. Persoanlly I wouldn't waste the money unless you where trying to make a track bike for a 250 class. The Ninja 250 is basically a commuter bike and beginner bikewith some sport styling. If you want good gas and a bike to get around town in get a250. If you want a bike to learn on get a 250. If you want a bike to do 200 mph on don't get one. My 250 is my firststreet bike and I am loving it. It is a great tool to learn on for sure.
