Modifications

Interior
Adjusted valves and synced carbs

Replaced chain, front and rear sprockets with a kit I got from Motorcycle Superstore. I think it was by DID. Huge improvement. I think the chain on the bike when I bought it was original equipment, therefore about 10 years old at the time (9K miles)
Exterior
Fairings has been cracked and shattered when previous owner dropped it; though they had been repaired to some extend, I went in with ASB cement and made more detailed repairs to stiffen them up.
Audio
Replaced OEM monoshock with the shock used on later-generation Ninja 250s; new one has pre-load adjustment and is slightly stiffer; huge improvement in handling.

rebuilt rear master cylinder and caliper; replaced rotor
Wheel and Tire
replaced the signal flasher relay
