250 vs 300 on track

First of all, taking my 300 on the track last weekend only deepened my love for that nimble little bike! It felt so much smoother in corners than my 250 ever did, even on BT-45 street tires. I didn't have to shift as frequently and didn't have a single bogging incident that used to occasionally plague me on the 250 (especially in unfamiliar corners). The 300 falls into corners just as easily as the 250 but has enough power in the lower-RPM range (around 5k) to pull through with no incident. I used to feel if I wasn't around 8k on the 250, there just wasn't the power I craved to pull me through the corner.

Anyone else have experience with both Ninjettes on the track?

I love the slipper clutch and the new digital display. Also, its nice to look at the digit speed on the exits to gauge your corner exits.

And there is having a kick stand .....
