Yeah, and CBR500R's suspension geometry looks like touring bike compared to Ninja 400 or RC390. Although Honda has put up largest contingency purse in MA Junior Cup. FIM & MA has also raised its rev-limit to 10,000rpms.
Ninja 400 has been quite an upset on racing circuits. At AFM Rnd-1 last month at Buttonwillow, it circulated significantly faster than Ninja 300, faster than all previous light/midweight-twins including SV650. Even faster than crippled 600s (450) and most of 600 Supersports field. Fastest 400R rider putting in 1:54 times, smoking!
