This is probably a naive question ...
But, then again, maybe not ... I was wondering if a stock 2010 ninja 250 has more horse power than a stock 2007 ninja 250. If anyone has some specific numbers, I would appreciate that. Thanks ...

"...the older model makes one more horsepower than the new one. The older model actually makes more peak power than the new model: 27.46 hp (20.48 kW) @ 12,000 rpm for the 2004 compared with 26.4 hp (19.7 kW) @ 11,000 rpm for the 2008 carbureted model." |

And that was a 2004, without flames. You could probably add another 3 hp on that sweet looking silver 2007 with full flames.
Hope you are loving the bike.

Pre-gen models are lighter and faster and get better gas mileage with a history of rock-solid reliability. The new-gen is basically the same bike with an updated look, slightly improved suspension and brakes. They did make some "improvements" to the engine so only time will tell how reliable these bikes are.

rear tire hp or bhp (brake horse power) is the amount of hp actually being delivered to the rear wheel and propelling you forward compared to the hp at the crank, which is essentially how much is produced at the engine. these bikes are rated at 32-33 hp at the crank, which translates to 26-27 hp after losing a few a horses in the drivetrain and transfer to the rear wheel. |

Actually that's partly wrong. Brake horsepower (bhp or chp) is measured at the crank and has nothing to do with the brakes on the car or bike. That's the number you will typically see advertised by manufacturers. Wheel horsepower (whp) is measured on a dyno and is typically 15-25% lower than bhp due to drivetrain loss.

The brake is attached to the engine's crankshaft when measuring the engine's hp.
