I wouldn't be concerned about that.

Check the oil level and always keep a close eye on it as the little Ninjas will use some.

Run Shell Rotella T6 5W-40 or a 40-grade cycle specific oil, preferably synthetic.

Here's some maintenance info - https://faq.ninja250.org/wiki/Ninja250_Howto

Use 87 octane Regular, no benefit from increased octane with the Ninja.
