^what i asked and what you replied are totally two different things :P

Yes. There is a difference.
The Carb one makes 26 hp on the crank - the FI one makes ~33 . You can verify the specs on the respective country sites.Hakuna MatataComment

^If you don't mind, proof please!
Do you know the US carb ninja could rev upto 15k rpm before it hits the rev limiter! and you say it makes only 26 hp on the crank??Comment

As I was teasing real life friends who bought Ninja 250 recently.
All those who purchased in late 2012 & start of 2013 must be have some different feelings :PFirst I was Scared But then We Made a Deal

Your absolutely right..I am one of them
but I'm getting more inclined towards naked styling of the Duke 390, which would also have the various information display on the console along with ABS, so i'm changing my ride anyway

That is most likely the power at the rear wheel that they have mentioned and not at the crank. Why do I think so? Go to the 2nd page of the comparison in the link you yourself gave and read the 4th paragraph. It mentions "This high-rpm performance is a defining trait for use on the racetrack and the CBR falls a bit short in outright horsepower as well (22.6 vs. 26.3)." No we all know that CBR250 makes 25bhp at the crank and they mention 22.6bhp. So, we can safely assume that MCUSA guys have mentioned the power at the rear wheel for both motorcycles.Originally posted by Mithungo View Post read the link through please.. But it is OT anyways.

Have anymore xbhp members gone ahead and booked the 300? As far as I know usman_imazz, Arsenic, 747anwar (ownership thread starter) and I are the only ones who have booked.
From what I've heard (courtesy Arsenic) Mumbai (Kanjurmarg & Vashi) alone have a booking of over 40 bikes and deliveries are expected in the last week of May. For an expensive bike, the showrooms are certainly getting good numbers.Ride Fast, Ride SafeComment

I said makes more sense, VFM wise...I never said the 300 at that price is not worth it. The price is understandable since they don't manufacture it here. For an enthusiast who's willing to spend over 4L, the 650 will sure cross his mind, that's what I intended to say.Originally posted by somen1984 View Post
