oil type, qty and automotive filter option
New owner here. What type of oil should I use for the 250?
What quantity?
Is there an automotive oil filter option that is recommended or do I need a kawasaki filter?
Thanks

What are the top 2 front sprocket mods?
What are the top 2 rear sprocket mods?
I had heard that going to a 15/42 was awesome.
I need more information. What seems to be the favorite, and why?

How do i take off the mirrors?
I am disassembling in order to paint and am confounded by how to remove the mirrors from the cowling. So far, everything else is no problem.
