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.

Agreed. If I wanted to trade the 250 for it, I'd get the RC390. Since I'm gonna keep this thing pretty much forever, if I was gonna spend ~8k on a RC390 I would just spend ~15k on a S1krr.
Don't judge my logic
