Kawasaki Ninja 300 Variants

Yes you can go for it, though it will be a tad more difficult for you to ride considering its seat height.

Yes you should go for a test ride. It is comfortable for you

The bike is from premium segment so its going to light your pocket always! If you can afford 5000-6000/- per service then it's okay. Also, another thing is mileage and that would be around 26-28 depends on your riding style.Once I had timing chain issue with my bike and that time it cost me around 35000/- so be prepared for hig expenses.Apart from that bike is awesome in look, styling, power and speed.You can use it for daily commuting if mileage isn't your problem.Last but not the least, the ground clearance is the most annoying thing in ninja 300 (almost in every ninja bike) 135mm ground clearance will hit every speed breaker in India and that hurts a lot.It will deshape your bike and eventually you would need to replace the whole exhaust so be aware for another 30000/- expense. Good luck

I have driven my Ninja 300 for 50,000 kms in three years. Mine was the last KRT edition sold in North India. During this time the bike has seen worst roads, I have taken it to Kaza, Chitkul and have taken it to Kareri lake trek road as well. I have never felt any problem with the ground clearance. Yes you have to be careful but the clearance isnt that bad. During this time, I have only replaced the timing chain tensioner, brake pads, engine oil and oil filter. I am using K&N on my bike since it was brand new and the bike is running great even right now. This bike is the most reliable motorcycle I have owned till now and has done everything I expect it to do. The exhaust is stock and I prefer it that way.

Ninja 300 the engine really vibrates a lot at 4 to 6k rpm , and the engine sound itself changes after 4k rpm which is not as smooth as below 4k rpm, gear shifting is little hard, gets stuck , and 1st and 2nd gears are waste it is just to move the veh, as you raise in 2nd gear the engine cries a lot. poor suspension in this segment, mileage in city 22 highway 27, fule tank capacity not realy 17lit, every time you fill at last line blink it fills 14 lit and even less or more keeps varying, also pillion seat is shaking the fitting is poor., overall not best in segment only good in top end else not value for money.

Haven't done a proper mileage test but in city it give around 25km/l. Heat management is excellent, even after driving in the evening peak Mumbai traffic you don't feel anything on your thighs/calves. It vibrate a bit around 5k rpm but else it's a roll.

It's not just about kawasaki. Charging too much in terms of services has become a common phenomenon amoung all the companies. Not much people prefer showroom for servicing bike after one or two years of purchasing. You can surely find a far better mechanic in local compare to showroom one. As per my experience in Delhi, however it varies state to state. Even managing KTM & RE bikes are also pretty expensive.

See, the parts are not cheap if you breaking up ... You can take an AMC to save on labour cost. But than, my friend, you live just once, if you live it right, once is enough. .... Connect with us for the brotherhood, we would love to connect

The service interval is 6000 KMS n the cost is approx 4500 to 5000 with no free services...

Service interval for Ninja 300 is 6k kms.. chain set costs approx 17k.. need to check for the break pads...

6000kms

Ninja for brand and ride quality.. top end power...Apache for the engine...overall ninja is appealing...if the qn was to compare with an orange bike...it would have been difficult...oops out of topic!!!

Service cost for Ninja is approx 4500 per service... Ninja is far better bike as the spare cost of RR310 is unnecessary high... just think about the cost of break lever and clutch lever for approx 1000 per lever... just an example that it's too too high for a TVS... moreover Ninja is far far superior machine...
