Did one on my 500 a few months ago, first time will probably be a pain. Just go to any local auto parts store they'll have a variety of feeler gauges sets. I paid a little extra (like.. $8 I think) to get a snazzier set with more sizes. Ninja 250 wiki should have the procedure and everything required in it.. basically need various sizes of metric sockets, a torque wrench, feeler guages, take plastics off, remove gas tank, disconnect coolant lines and whatever other odds and ends that are in the way down their, pull of valve cover, check the clearances, adjust if necessary, put everything back together. Use the original gasket as long as you don't tear it lol.
