I bought my CBR250RR for a few reasons over many other bikes, I also decided to get the 'RR because it has two front discs.

Just curious, what is the difference (if any) between the two? Less braking power or no?

Cheers

Two front disks will make quite a difference to braking. More stopping power, because the stopping forces are going through 2 rotors instead of just one, the heat build up will not be as great so you should notice less brake fade etc.
The upsides to having a 250rr as opposed to a 250r goes way beyond just the brakes, overall they are much better performers.
