Its not like I'd be swapping out a new motor or anything and with the airbox gone there is plenty of space for EFI 
Also my ninja cost $4000 + $700 (AP + jets) + $100 (Air filter, other odds and ends) so $4800. Yours will cost lets say $5500 OTD + $600 (AP) + $300 (PC) +$100 (Air filters, odds and ends) so $6500. Yep more expensive lol. Don't know what a big bore kit would cost or if I even want to do it, probably a few hundred though |
You mentioned it in another thread, I'm doing Mechanical Engineering or Aeronautics & Astronautics.
But you have to consider, a fully modded 250(not bored out) will have ~32 hp. The ninja 300, although we don't know for sure what the WHP will be, will probably be around ~32 hp also. Plus here in WA we don't have as awful dealer fees. I got my 2010 SE(in 2011) just $100 more OTD than the msrp
Regardless, I guess there is some joy in working on your own bike so there is that.
