Part I Kawasaki Headquarters (Irvine, CA) and First Impressions
Part II: To LA, LA Times Throttle Jockey Susan Carpenter
Part III:
LA to Palm Springs, Chris Baker (Cuba Writer)
Part IV: Palm Springs through Desert to San Francisco Bay Area
Part V: Morgan Hill, Jacques' Norton, Alice's Restaurant, SF, Home to Pt. Richmond
Part IV: The Kawi C14 Goes Home, 101 from SF Bay Area, Neptune's Net in Malibu, Orange County

36
One thing I will say right now is that their advertised 36 mpg is right on or even conservative. I got even more when I wasn't zipping around like a maniac in the lower gears. During those long freeway stretches I got upwards of 55 mpg. That's what overdrive does for you, I guess!
