The lowest I've seen E85 here is 70%.

I believe it's not worth the trouble in running E85 or methanol in my bike as I use it as daily transport, it would be more cost effective to sell the 250 and buy a bigger bike.

Sadly E85 or methanol is not cheap here, but in saying that I care not for the extra cost as the benifits of E85 outweigh the cost.
Are you saying you run a mix of 70%/30% ethanol/gasoline in your Ninja? I really don't know squat about gasoline - I only what I've read. All I know is that my bike doesn't run well without it.

Cheers,
