I think right now, the best all around compromise on fuel efficiency, barely enough power, water cooled, 6 speed, fuel injected, 16 inch wheels, standard bike ergonomics even if the seat height isn't the lowest, not too expensive used price, ect, would be the pregen Honda CBR125R. one of those would make a sweet riding streamliner, like the Ninja, for the fast crowd that likes to run 80 mph all of the time, and start with a 25% FE advantage. It would have to be imported to the US from Canada though which might make California registration very tricky.
