1: Engineering marvel on a budget

Sports bike like Ninja 650 can only outperform RC 390 by a small margin and they are not as well equipped with either. Ninja 650 does make 67 BHP but it weighs a good 23 Kg more. It’d beat RC 390 in a straight line but not necessarily on a track. Ninja 650 has no Ride-by-wire throttle, No WP USD suspension and no adjustable lever.
2: Equipment

3: It is a cult

4: You can overtake anything

5: It is not the fastest bike out there

Whenever we talk about speed and HP we always forget to add one important factor. It is the fact that we live in India. Despite the urbanisation, we are still a developing nation. Most of our roads are not yet ready for 250 km/h madness. The 178k/h of RC 390 feels just fine for me. The 40-60 HP range is something which you can easily live with on Indian roads beyond but that might take some time.
I think I may have over-explained some points and exaggerated some things too. Do let me know in the comments so I can tone it down a little.
