Just read from Motorcyclist Magazine's facebook post, the Ninja 300 will be listed $4,799 starting (no ABS). Not too bad, and it will impact CBR 250 sales for sure.

Im curious to know about the engine mounts, if its not too much work wouldnt mind putting a 300cc into my 250cc (just wait for some people to start crashing their 300's and pick up a engine on the cheap, it might work out

The advantage of FI is simply that you can vary the quantity of fuel sprayed based of numerous variables - such as engine temp, engine load, RPM, deceleration, etc. Which is an advantage over carbs which operate solely on vacuum. It also has the advantage of being able to change mixture on the fly so alternate fuels can be used such as E85. But getting back to the compression, what is the advantage of shortening the compression stroke with the valves as opposed to simply having a shorter physical stroke? How does this translate into more HP?

Just barely.
Pregen: 37.4 HP Newgen: 31.5 HP 300: 38.9 HP Seems like the 300 is just giving back what was previously taken away. And they still haven't given back the center stand. I don't know how you newgen folks can live like that.

Wow that track trim is awesome. But seeing that means companies have had a 300 for a while now… Y then no share!

The valve timing and overlap is one of the parameters used to determine the engine's character. Where should it make its power, is it optimized for high-rpm peak power, or a smoother mid-range. One example is the difference between Ducati's 1098 engine in the superbike and the multistrada. Very similar engines, but the multistrada one has only 11 degrees of overlap (both intake/exhaust valves open together for 11 degrees of the rotation), while the superbike version had 41 degrees of overlap. Their newest 1199 engine has something like 45 degrees of overlap, for even more peak power/less midrange.

If a 300 "with mods" can hit about 45-50hp, I would consider buying one. I feel it would be the perfect balance of power & performance while addressing the 250 commuter concerns (freeway) while keeping in touch with a lightweight bike linage and hopefully keep the prices in check.

Not your pre-gen. It hasn't been rated at 37.4 hp for 15 years.

That's what the EX250F is rated at on Wikipedia.

Actually, I was thinking about the lengthened intake stroke being a way to get more power out of the stroke. That is, say the piston doesn't actually start compressing until it gets say 8mm up from BDC, so the fuel/air charge is based on the smaller volume, but in the power stroke, it would go all the way to the bottom. That seems to imply more power with less fuel.

The higher octane, achieved by the addition of lead, is required for the higher horsepower, turbocharged airplanes. Turbocharging is required for any plane that flies over 10,000 since horespower is a function of air density and you are at about %50 power at 10,000 in a NA engine. That is why service cealing on a large number of small GA airplanes is 10,000 ft. If they are turbocharged they can usually go up to 18,000ft or so. |

1. How much do you think it'll cost to get a Ninja 300 out the door?
I think a lot of people are being fooled by seeing that the MSRP is only ~$600 or so more expensive than that of a 2012 Ninja 250R...But I think dealers are going to want an arm and a leg added to that. 2. Is the 300 even worth a beginner's trouble? I'm still searching for my first motorcycle. There's just a few things that shy me away from the Ninja 300: -price -the probability that I'll drop a brand new bike -and maybe weight. I'm a small 135 Lb guy. I wonder if A). these things will be around in the winter? B). will they be cheaper by then? |

don't worry about weight..the new one will be 4 lbs heavier, .4 inch higher (but slimmer up front?). I'm 115lbs, have no trouble, and you will barely notice 4lbs I think.
but price could definitely be an issue. i cant see them charging more than they already do..freight would be the same, assembly is more or less the same probs, documentation is still documentation, etc. so itll just be $600 more.
