Don't know how significantly this will affect mileage but it will help the very low first gear you mention. I'd do it if the chain is still in great shape, if not wait like you indicated.

I'd surely surely do it if I had an NC700!
A front sprocket replacement (14->15 teeth) on my girlfriend's Hyosung GV250 improved FE by about the amount of difference between the two setups. I'm still surprised, I wouldn't have thought it would help this much.
