Just wanted to share some videos that I found.. it might be a good flashback for older folks.
Back in 80s and 90s, they didn't have ultra high grip tires like we have now...but despite that, those bikes performed quite well
"A lot of people ask me, I get this question a lot. How do I get my Ninja 300 or CBR250R to sound like this? And unfortunately, you can't. It's just not gonna happen."
Honda CBR250RR
Kawasaki Ninja ZX-2R
I guess my point of showing these videos is...KAWASAKI REALLY NEEDS TO BRING BACK THE ZX-2R!!! or even updated ZX-3R!!
Those are amazing!
I wish more of the 4-cylinder 250s made it out of Japan.
The new CBR250RR that's supposed to be coming looks amazing. But it's reportedly another twin, and at or below the power of the previous CBR250RR.
The talk about a new Ninja 250R sounds similarly disappointing, aside from updated looks for the fairings and headlights...
The biggest hurdle for the manufacturers is keeping the cost low for a 4 cylinder 250. If the price is too close to the middleweight 600, most people would go for the 600 & whatever little 250 they sell would likely be at the expense of their own 600(a nightmare for any bike maker).
