I have a 2006 Kawasaki Ninja 250R and it doesn't have a gas gague on it so that makes knowing when to fill up a bit more of a hassle, and also makes me afraid to take it on trips. Is there a way to get one added on or add it yourself?
 
Your bike will quickly show it's limitations if you take in on a trip that requires fuel stops. These bikes are great for in town and short road trips but if you start having 500 mile days or better it will quickly suck the big one!! Also Bart is right about the trip meter thing too.
 
Bart's right.
Personally, I'd rather have the reserve setting on the petcock.
The lights work, but I don't like them.

Bikes don't have gas gauages. You probably have like a 3.5 gallon tank at most so it won't take a rocket scientist to figure out how much you get to a gallon and how much you get per tank. I figured I get about 37mpg on my bike, I have a 3 gallon tank which kinda suks cuz it's so small but I set my odoometer when I go for a long ride and I can go a little over 100 miles without filling up, a little longer if its highway driving at steady speeds. I fill up pretty frequently anyways, I like to stop and have a drink and a smoke so I fill up wheil I'm doing that.
 
use the trip odometer as the gas guage, plus it has a low fuel light

figure out how many miles you can go till the low fuel light comes on, and every time you fill it up with gas reset the trip odometer to "0"
