I'm looking into buying a Ninja 250cc. I was wondering how high the maintenance is on them, how much it would cost, and what I would have to do to the motorcycle.

Thanks

Ask the dealer

They'll be more accurate then we will.

Yeah, but half the time, they'll want you (me) to spend more money, and buy their products for something that might never happen (well, that has happened to me a lot in the past, so I've come to no trust sales people)

...

What?

You go to the service desk and ask how much a "first service on a EX250 will be." They will give you a number somewhere in the range of $100-300 most likely.

Oh, alright... I've just never really trusted sales people. 90% of the time they try giving me crap I never will need

I don't think dealership service desks work like that, gunbait, at least not here.

At the two dealerships I've brought bikes to one had a big binder and the other a computer program with their price list.

I want to say my 600 mile service on my ex250 was about $249, although I can't remember for sure. It's definitely not cheap. I do understand prices are regional so it could be cheaper where you live.

Alright, yeah it is probably different with motorcycles and such. Thanks for the help
