I was googling what the mpg was for a 2010 ninja kawasaki 250r and stumbled onto this forum. It was exactly why I purchased my motorcycle, which was to commute and save gas.
Just wanted to say HI! and I have a lot of reading to do.

@GRU: As far as eco-mods, none thus far. However, I do plan to install lowering links to lower the seat height so my girlfriend can get a better balance on the bike. She's current unable to hold up the bike; not even able to at least "tippy-toe" it up. I was hoping to get an extra 1"-1.5" drop. I heard that lowering a bike, one can jeopardize the integrity of it's safety & handling. Is this true? Any feedback on this mod would be deeply appreciated.
