    They were good in their day but not by todays standards in terms of power handling braking etc.
    350lc would get left standing by a 250 ninja lol - i know cos i had one til i flipped it!
    And i wouldnt fancy 18mpg at £1.40 a litre! :/

    I beg to differ. the 250 may go round bends better but the lc would destroy the 4 stroke in a straight line...
    tbh with the right tyres & setup an rd350 lc would just be gone sorry....

    A 250 ninja would struggle to stay with a full power Cagiva mito evo.
    you can hear theres nothing left in the ninja !!!!

    sorry, but got to prove you all wrong with a quote from god..."The RG500 is the most rewarding engine to tune and is definitely my favourite."

    i once rode a stage 3 tuned one with huxley pipes on, it was insanely fast!! flat as a witches tit till about 8,000 then pointed itself at the sky and went mental.

    dunno why they say flat as a witches tit.

    a witches hat is called a tit, hence the name for a boob cos its the same shape.... sort of!
