the RC390 will have ~8-9 HP on the N300 stock, and be down close to 40lbs on weight.

The single should shell out a broader torque curve giving it a lot of useful power in almost any scenario.

better brakes, better suspension, both bikes in the hands of the same skilled rider I don't see the N300 "competing" JMO

If I had no bike, I would love to get a rc390 if they come to the US. I think it would be a great fun bike for quite some time. A bike that most people could be happy with for a while. But....since I already have a bike and a little 2fiddy at that if I were to get another bike I don't think I could get an rc390, it's just not that exciting to me as a second bike.
