I'm sure you have heard of people saying how Ninja 300 will keep up with supersport like YZF-R1, ZX-10R, 1299 Panigale and all that stuff.
To this day, I still find it very hard to believe.
If you look around on Google and YouTube, you will see many people on Ninja 300 keeping up with YZF-R1 no problem.
I think I've seen GSX-R1000 getting smoked by Ninja 300 on the track.
My question is, can Ninja 300 REALLY keep up with supersport?
I still think that every time I see those videos/comments, I feel like whoever was riding the supersport was going easy so that Ninja 300 could keep up, or the rider on supersport really sucked.
I don't know about the new R1, but 2009 R1 could run Nurburgring in 7:10, which is really fast. How could Ninja 300 ever keep up?
Because if Ninja 300 was actually performing THAT well, MotoGP, Isle of Man TT, etc. team should be building Ninja 300 based bike, not 1000cc supersport.
I know that car guys love to say how AE86 would keep up with NSX, GT-R, Supra and all that...and I still find it hard to believe too.
Don't get me wrong, I know Ninja 300 serves its purpose, fun, economical, cheap, good learners bike...but when people compare the Ninja 300 with supersport? I kind of go like...really???
