HX250R vs CBR 250R vs RC390 vs Ninja 300 SE vs R25

(It's my First time blogging... Sorry for the mistakes if any... )

This is a comparison between five of the most anticipated entry level sports bikes in india... Almost all the specs and features of these bikes are listed... Hope these will help those who are planning for any of these...

Personally I prefer the KTM RC390 since it is the most powerful and will be priced very well by KTM... The RC390 has the biggest engine in the segment, but still the engine is only a single cylinder. Like the Duke 390, RC390 will also be having features like ABS, Metzeler Tires, WP suspension, Trellis Frame Chassis, etc,...

If value for money and and service facilities are considered, the HERO HX250R is the best choice... For the first time Hero has launched a Sports bike with premium features like ABS, Pirelli Sport Demon Tires, Under-seat exhaust, etc... The Buell DNA is clearly visible in the design of HX250R... The bike is truly matching International quality measures... Also HX250R is the lightest bike in the competition making it very high in Power-to-weight Ratio...

If you are a Honda fan, the CBR will definitely please you... The looks resembling the elder sibling CBR1000RR... Powering the 2014 Honda CBR 250R is the same 249cc, single-cylinder as seen on the previous model, but it has been tinkered with to increase its power output. Honda claims that the gear ratios have been changed to better suit the new dynamics of the engine. Still the CBR is the least powered bike in the segment.The wheelbase of the 2014 Honda CBR 250R has been increased to 1,378mm from 1,367mm and the bike tips the scale at 164kg (167kg older bikes weight).
No changes have been made to the bikes suspension or brakes and like the previous model, ABS will be optional.

The Kawasaki Ninja 300 SE 2014 comes equipped with optional ABS, one which the ninja fans has been waiting for long... The bike is priced around 3 lacks which is highest in the segment, but you won't regret since the Baby Ninja has decent performance and exceptional build quality in the class. The bike comes packed with a 300cc parallel twin engine,  ABS, Petal disc brakes, FCC assist clutch, Kawasaki air management system, etc...

Youths in India have been waiting long for the launch of Yamaha's new flagship model model in India: The R25...  The R25 bears the Yamaha's racing DNA and has a new 249cc parallel-twin High Revving engine which chokes out 36BHP@12000rpms and 22.6Nm torque @ 10000 rpm which is impressive...   R25 is a sport-bike that you can ride every day. Even with its revvy character, the R25 will be easy to ride on a day-to-day basis. The R25 features a narrow valve angle and high compression with sophisticated engine architecture for superior performance.

Hope this helps... Stay updated...
