Dyno run claims to show 41.8bhp at 15000RPM.

The original ZXR250 made 45 horses at 15,000RPM.

2-stroke 250s like the RGV250 & RS250 pushed out 70 horses at 12000RPM.... if you can keep feeding em expensive synthetic 2T....

The figures are not surprising considering their goal was to increase low to mid range power to make the bike more usable as a daily rider. There's also modern emissions standards to observe.

IMO the biggest weakness of this bike is that it comes with too many modern features that only add to the price for little noticeable gain for the average rider. This bike doesn't need radial front caliper, quickshift, traction control, etc.. The people who want to get it mainly just want a 4 cylinder 250cc for the sound or so they can bypass license restrictions or increased tax associated with higher cc bikes.

If they manufactured ZX25R with regular axial brake caliper, and only ABS as a safety feature (really should be mandatory on all 250+cc bikes now), pricing it around RM 5~8k less, it would be more palatable to more markets.

CBR400RR or maybe VFR400 are good contenders.

Original one dyno got ~38bhp. But of course there are different results out there.
2 stroke powerband, we all know la, haha... under 7k kosong punya.

Or, they can sell 2 specifications at 2 different price ranges to attract different crowds.

Having options is great, but it depends on what those specifications are.

I personally don't like it when all safety features are removed in the lower spec version (esp. ABS as mentioned), which is why I don't really agree in this case.

Keep in mind also that some countries will only have one or the other spec, and not both.

ABS should be the bare minimum. I agree with this.

So probably we getting this at good price if under modenas badge.

any idea what price they looking at?

time to group buy Kawasaki emblem

Ninja 250 in Indonesia is about rm18k and while here in malaysia is about 23k

That's a 5k different.

Added to the 28k base and 33k se

Should be
33k for non abs
38k for se

If it's under modenas. Then not sure

Heard that it won't be in Malaysia market until 2021...?? Sad reaccs only
