My first bike
By Elijah(Owner), Sep. 1, 2008
The Kawi 250R is my first bike and its awesome. I have had mine for about 6 months now and ride it every single chance I get. It is a great commuter bike and sometimes gets almost 100 mpg. The price of this bike will cost you less than the gas for your SUV!
