2017RR390 VS 2018 RR 390

[Darione]

Hello,
From who had rode both bikes, can I have your
Impression?
The double injector make really difference in terms of torque and power
I'm thinking to sell my rr 17 and buy a 18.
Thankyou

The twin injector bike is better it spools up faster,the clutch works better it does make a little noise under load, the frame changes are great the bike feels sharper and more planted. I'm very happy I upgraded from my 2016 350rr to the 18. The 390 ridden back to back feels the same improved. I think its a no brainer, the changes from 16-17 not so.

Marty, thankyou for your opinion,
So, you had upgrade your bike my 16 or you had bought a new bike my 18?

I'm struggling to change the bike because the bike have 1 1/2 year with 56h.

Sold my 2016 and bought a 2018 its a good improvement worth the money I think, I guess in month I'll know its the start of our race season.

MM, what is your opinion of the 350 vs the 390? Everyone says the 390 lugs better but can’t imagine a 350 really lacking in low end power compared to a 300 2T. I’m just curious why you think most disregard the 350. Thanks

I prefer the 350 it revs better and I think its smoother. The 350 has ample bottom end it really pulls well off the bottom. I don't know why people disregard the 350 I guess as a trail bike the 390 is easier to ride as a racer the 350 has plenty for me. I'm sure I could get used to the 390 though! b
But seat of the pants I love the 350.

There’s no comparison as a 300rr has way more low end than a 350 rr. Especially off idle. 350 is a great bike . I think A 350’s biggest competition is that the whole line is easy to ride. So a 430 or open Beta is easy to ride too. If a big bore or 430 is easy to ride what’s the better benefit of a 350? It spools up better and is great if guys just don’t want as much power . It’s always just preference . I like my 350 but all things being equal for the 4 stroke line Id rather a 430.. but thats me. Id probably ride the newest line of Beta and change my mind again. I like my old 525 rs big bore enduro too. Some guys just don’t prefer big bore enduro bikes too. Betamakes some great big bores too.
