[visordown.com] - Versus: Honda CBR500R vs Kawasaki Ninja 300
Are you looking at me? They’re both competent, sporty all-rounders, good for getting to work or getting a moderate shift on. They're both built to high-quality, Japanese standards. They're both great looking. Only £200 separates them in price. So which should you buy? Our Versus guides are here to give you a quick helping-hand through the trickiest buying choices, starting with: CBR500R vs Ninja 300 Reasons to buy CBR500R Reason to buy Ninja 300
Capacity: 471cc Power: 47bhp Weight: 194kg Seat height: 790mm Price: £4891 OTR (£5,291 with ABS) Capacity: 296cc Power: 38bhp Weight: 172kg kerb (£174kg ABS) Seat height: 786mm Our choice: Honda CBR500R The Ninja is great fun but essentially the hangover of a disappearing market. Its predecessor, the Ninja 250R, catered perfectly for newly-qualified riders restricted to 33bhp. In January this year that restriction rose to 47bhp. The heavily-revised Ninja 300 is Kawasaki’s response, offering 38bhp. But if you can have 47bhp, surely that’s how many you want. In which case a £200 saving seems the remaining argument for the Kawasaki. That's without factoring in ABS, which is standard on the Honda. Much as we like the Ninja, it loses this battle.
