44 hp is just right for me. That and a great chassis is all I need really.

I already owned a 690. Great bike. It had a lot of issues though and was pretty maintenance heavy. But it wasn't blowing engines like the 390 tends to do.
How do you like the Ninja 400?

To me, it looks as good as the KTM 390, or almost, but so far it looks like a reliable engine. And about the same price range.
