^ Yeah, some of the little things on a modern bike are good - no fuel tap, electronic speedo/tach, and no centre stand......! :lol:

Is europe going to get the 300 with FI? I read that some markets may not get the 300 and still keep carbs. I wouldn't expect the top end to be much better than the 250, but should gain a bunch of torque which the 250 could use.

300 with EFI in Europe :mrgreen:

Just saw an ad on craigslist that the local dealer is supposed to have them in stock right now. I think if they make enough available it will take a big chunk of Hondas 250 cbr sales. On a side note, anyone see the 250 Yamaha in cycleworld this month? I think some lower cost smaller bore sportbikes will sell very good in the us if they can get some decent performance. Hopefully someone makes a modern 350-400 thats affordable. If they could keep it in the $6000-$6500 range they would sell like hotcakes. How many people are really dumping 10 grand on a new 600 now a days?

I guess the HP increase is in line with the displacement increase............. ( it ain't a 250! ) Still a good thing, I am just being pedantiic! :lol:

I still think it would be a very fun bike to ride. It probably is one of the best bangs for the buck out there in new bike land as well.
