    Well There is a limit for every engine depending on its cc.And R15 is very close to its limits while there is a significant gap between actual ninja performance and what a well-squeezed out twin-inline cylinder can actally do .
    well a very well mature move ...

    some one could ans his quarries

      As they say, half knowledge is worser than having no knowledge at all.

      I hope you will take whatever i said positively.
      ^+1. Very correct. No offense here either.
      Riding is a way of life. Sometimes, it might also be a way of giving life. So Ride safe. In both contexts.

        let the damn bike come in the first place before pitching it against a Ninja, 220, R15, Splendour and KTM vapourware!
        Its not all about the cc's. There are umpteen thousand factors that go into what the engine characteristic will finally shape out to be. Bikes which have different origins are usually different in characteristics and it is very difficult to get 2 different engines to ape the 'performance' of each other. So let us not compare the engine to R15's and anything above 150cc's that is available here.

        As far as the 'why didn't they squeeze all the juice out of a twin cyl in Ninja' question goes, I'm sorry, I don't know why. Maybe it wouldn't churn out a decent average (this is India after all) if it did that?

        Read up / google some more and increase ur accuracy buddy. (Noooo offence meant but) you were quoting some really skewed figures.

        @Thread: So what do we discuss now?

          Well .I was talking about shear performance limits and not the character(the fashion/feel in which the performance is delivered) .I don't think I gave any skewed information .Its just a matter of point of view of how you interpret it.That's why i decided to stop the topic here itself .
          I don't want to merge a point of view thread in this thread .May be someday we'll have a big enough reason to open such a thread
          The Automotive batteries are designed to work best in a typical short start-stop fashion.
          So to increase the life of your automobile battery, blow the horn and flash the pass light in a quick start stop fashion instead of a conitnuous long horn blow or flash light continuous on!!
          And obviously don't stretch the self start far too long.

              hilarious!!

              eye opening. so going by your calculations...

              please... tell me... what can a single cylinder 600cc R15 do???

              and is it faster than an R1 too?

                LOL, Xionite, I hope you're being sarcastic :P (lol)

                A 600cc ''R15'' is the R6 and I think it'll outperform the Ninja ZX-6R
                D'oh!

                  lol.. u decided to fly off on a completely different tangent

                  How come we are discussing everything but the new Honda?

                    Yeah sorry I was just saying that a 600c R series bike by Yamaha won't be called R ''15''.... :P They name the digits according the CCs, so... anyway, I'm sure Xionite also knows that and was just being sarcastic :P

                    Coming back to the CBR250R .... why is it not an ''RR'' ?
                    D'oh!

                      yes... the R6 is a 4 valves per cylinder Inline Four...

                      i was referring to his Single Cylinder calculation of
                      a 200cc R15 (technically an R20 ) being faster than a Ninja 250R...

                      was curious to know the numbers on a 600cc version of the R15.

                      all info credible info is on the first post of this thread.

                      but it's definitely fun to read thru all the wishes/hopes/dreams/pricing everyone has for this bike.

                          Highly unlikely that the specs will differ.

                          Tell me one thing which wouldn't suit Indian conditions? (in case you have gone through the spec sheet)

                            MAYBE to make the bike a bit more fuel efficient they will change the specs. Moreover they are saying that this bike is a tourer so i think they will try to make this bike more fuel efficient so that it can have a longer range.

                              The bike is the same throughout for all countries. They can't make FE in one part and guzzler in the other.

                              What makes you guys think that gas mileage isn't important in other part of the world? Its more important, as someone who would spend 1.5L in India on a bike will be less worried than a learner in States riding this for his/her license.

                                RR Stands for Race Replica. Hence, RR is used after 600cc and 1000cc bikes as they're expected to be road-based replicas of their racing bikes.
                                As for CBR 250, it doesn't seem to be replica of any racing bike.

                                Even the Faired Hornet is called CBR 600 "F". I believe these recent CBR's shouldn't be too track focussed...

                                its not necessary that a twin cylinder is always better then single cylinder .It simply depends on the technologies that undergo into the engine.e.g. top speed of 150cc R15 is 150kmph and that of ninja is less then 170kmph .A 200cc single cylinder R15 can easily beat ninja 250r .Ninja definitely have two cylinder but no special engineering to squeeze all the juice out of the engine.So there is a possibility of single cylinder outperforming twin cylinder.
                                And did someone tell you, R15 has some 17PS and Ninja has some 33PS, almost double? And what about gearing? Is it same in both bikes, due to which you're comparing top speeds only?

                                I suggest you to google & learn more about these topics:- Gearing, Gear Ratios, Torque vs Power, Torque curve, etc. and you should be able to better understand what I mean...
