They make them for the KLR-650 and I've seen a sporty standard bike with R1 stickers that had one (FZ1?). I'm sure it was whatever standard/sport Yamaha bike that shares the supersport R1 frame, but I'm curious and wonder if it could be thrown on an actual R1.

Yup he gave me the same response as well. The catch is that for a full system there has to be ECU management as well and thats what they too have to wait for so they can complete development. Outside of slipons I think we may have a wait before we get the full system. Waiting sucks......

does anyone know or have the specs for the engine parts? i would really like to know if they are using the same engine for the US/OZ 300 models as the new 250s that are being sold here... (as in the same overall casing, etc, and possibly only needing to change the throttle body, and the crankshaft, or something to increase the stroke length)
at the moment i have no urge to buy another 250, lol... but... oh but if i can convert a stock 250 into a stock 300... oh boy... then i would have a hard time not buying the new 2013 model... well.... eventually in any case, ha ha! edit.... and i would wait patiently for an AreaP full exhaust for the new bike if i were to get one. i love the one i have now

you don't have to wait, there's plenty of stuff to do on your bike.
right now, you have much more power then any normally aspirated 250. i would concentrate upgrading the suspension, and controls on the bike for now.

I got a quote from progressive a couple days ago on a new 2012 250, and the new 300. The bare minimum coverage they quoted me for the whole year on the 250 was ~180 for the whole year, and the 300 was around 260ish for the whole year. The package with the best coverage all around was around 4-500 a year difference, but I don't remember the exact prices. So, yes. |

Haha, my premium is going to be atleast around 1,600. Those were just the prices I remembered. Just trying to show that there is a 100$ difference in premiums even in the lowest ones.

You might want to do that if when you run your quote. At least until they get a Ninja 300R in the drop down menu.

It sparkles. There's just a hint of metal flake in the paint, so in the sunlight it has an extra pop. Pictures make it look like a flat white, but it stands out more in person.

I'm surprised that they used the older Kawi-Green instead of the 2012 green.

I'm not that surprised. I thought I liked the 'puke' Candy Lime Green but it seems a little obnoxious IMO.

That's because it's not a 300R, just a 300. No joke, that R makes a difference with the insurance prices
Isn't it fraud to claim that your Ninja 300 is a Ninja 250R with a larger engine? It's a totally different bike. I wouldn't claim a 300 as a 250R because i would be worried that the insurance company would say, "we won't cover your 300 because we have a policy for your 250R, not your 300" if I ever needed to make an insurance claim. |

I'm into obnoxious as long as I get noticed and I get a lot of compliments on it. If I was going to go for bad ass, I'd likely just do black. I do like the new white too, though.

my insurance co lists it as a Kawasaki EX300.
it only costs an additional $50/yr over the EX250 for the same coverages.

Are there alot of dealers price gouging since these bikes just came out? My local dealer is charging below MSRP, but isn't even putting the ones they have on the floor yet, because they want to get rid of all their 250's to people who come in and don't know about the 300.

always get them to put the correct info on the policy paperwork. this way everything works out easy. i find its better to talk to someone on the phone. this way you have a contact in case anything goes wrong.

Since I didn't have a valid VIN, I just left that part blank. I do think that a "300 cc Ninja 250" is a better description than "other 300cc sport bike" which could be interpreted as half a ZX-6R. It might be half a Ninja 650, but not a ZX-6R. I don't think that's fraud, but Insurance companies are master weasels. Progressive even jumped tables on one guy and argued that their own insured was at fault so they could get out of paying him his uninsured motor vehicle claim.

I was thinking in terms of HP. HP is pretty much what defines a sport bike. A 600 has two injectors per intake and so there are eight of them. That's about 110 HP at the wheel as compared to 65 HP for the 650 and 32 HP for the 300. So in terms of HP, the 300 is closer to half the 650 than half the 600. But its better defined as a 300 cc 250.

I had no idea there were two injectors per cylinder in a 600. Cool! That's how they managed to use massive TB's for top end and use small enough injectors that the minimum pulse length doesn't flood the engine at idle. Why didn't I think of that when I was pondering how they managed it?? Cool.

When you get your Ninja 300, don't forget to go here and fill out your MPG for Alex's gas mileage poll. We still don't have a good sample, but we are starting to get a clear picture.
