it would be really hard to hit 100 mpg on the newer ninja 250, unless you took the cams from the older ninja 250 and swapped them. but with the stock setup, maybe 90 with seriously easy driving. your 89 mpg is probably the best you will get, and i still dont see how you did that.

if you drove steady at 35 mph, in top gear, after putting on 15/42 sprockets, for 3 hours, then maybe you could get 100 mpg. but man, would that be boring.
