Kawasaki ninja 250, under 4 grand brand new and can get up to 75mpg. I was thinking of getting one as a toy.

called the guy and he said that the timing belt is still stock along with the clutch and the turbo. is it easier to change the timing belt on this thing compared to my old 2.8 30v? also, should i be worried about the turbo or the clutch going soon?
