What is wrong with my 2009 kawasaki ninja 250r?? is it a crankshaft issue?

If it is a loud air type sound you probly have a vacuum leak some where, Check your air filter and all hoses to make sure there are no holes, Also a hole in your exhaust or leaky gasket at the header could be a cause.

2002 ninja 250 idels good runs bad with no power band and sounds like its running on two cylinders but both exhaust pipes get hot,it just doesnt sound like a ninja should,i put new plugs with no change

The power band on a 2002 Ninja 250 does not kick in till you hit about 5000 RPM. The newer 2008 and up 250's kick in about 3000 RPM. There is a website devoted to the Ninja 250 that might give your more background into the motorcycle: ninjette.org You may want to replace your spark plug caps they may be robbing of the spark you need at take off. They simply unscrew off of the end of the wires. They should read 5000 OHM's no higher , no lower. If you purchase new NGK brand plug caps they will only cost about $5 each.

Changing the oil/oil filter

I just got a 97 ZX9 and had the same issue... until I read the service manual. You need to remove the oil pipe flange bolt in order to get enough room to be able to remove the filter between the exhaust header and the motor case. Of course, unthreading the filter is an issue by itself. If you do not have the cap (tool) that fits over the end of the filter and provides access for a rachet tool to unscrew it, then you probably need to do what I ended up doing... punching a screwdriver through the old filter in order to gain the leverage needed to start unscrewing the filter.

Exhaust system

radiator has to be removed then its just a simple job of undoing the header nuts and the silencer bolts, exhaust should be free to come off.
