I bet there is someone that has already put pod filters on one of these and could recommend jet sizes. Wouldn't be that hard.
How about that coolant overflow tank? Somewhere to hide that?

I am making some domed fiberglass side covers. I considered turning one side into coolant tank . I think it would be cool but I don't know if it is worth all the extra effort it would take when I could just hide the factory one under the seat somewhere.
I appreciate all the nice comments. I was really hesitant to post it up since most people scoff whenever you mention a ninja 250. It honestly wouldn't have been a bike I would seek out, but its been growing on me. Plus it gets 75mpg!

I made a mistake and let my girlfriend sit on one of the new model Ninja 250's the other day. Now she wants one so bad it's all I hear about. I guess I'm gonna revive my little Honda Rebel so she at least has something to ride on. Then maybe I can figure out a way to sell that and acquire the Ninja.

Nice work on that seat ive never thought of using wood but it looks to be just as shape-able as foam or any other thing we try and use and it looks like it fits perfectly to your tank

So I've been working on my side covers. I made a mold and vacuum formed them from a .093" acrylic sheet. They turned out pretty good. The only draw back is that acrylic is brittle and prone to crack. I need an alternative material that is similar in cost. Any suggestions?

Looks neat.
More info on that 2G Eclipse with dr's on the back?
