Very good review! I've seen a lot of reviews for this bike on KZfaq, but this is probably the best. I bought mine two months ago for $5800, and so far I have ~2,000 miles on it. I absolutely love it so far.

I saw this video when it came out, revisiting now because I got a little older and am now in a position to own a motorcycle. Especially with the Ninja 400 hundred coming out and a little bit of age, the Ninja 300s are starting to dip into real $3xxx territory. It's kind of exciting that this happened, it's almost as if the bike has gotten more attractive over the years. Definitely going to be a staple of beginner bikes like the 250 for a long time

My wife and I have been riding our Ninja 300's for about 18 months now and still love going for a ride. We are looking at upgrading sometime in the near future. We're looking at the BMW F800GT as a tourer, and perhaps the Ninja 650 or the ZX-6R (for me!!)...As such, we've been scouring youtube for reviews etc...and we must say that your review of the Ninja 300 is by far the best motorcycle review out there, and tops ANY review out there, even ones done by online magazine! It seems that some people think that doing a video of themselves riding a bike constitutes a 'review'. Your format is very informative and provides some insight into the pro's and con's, compares with similar bikes...absolutely well done review....I reckon you could make a full-time job out of this!

Excellent review! I bought my Ninja 300 in June '13 for $4700 cash. I've put 7400 miles on it since then. No issues other than taking it in for the ECM recall and the brake caliper recall. I added a yoshimura slip-on exhaust and the moment I did I was upset that I didn't get one sooner. It sounds amazing with that pipe. And I agree with your assessment of the stock tires, they're fine and last a decently long time if you do not ride aggressively. But the hard compound isn't great for hard cornering. I ride to commute and am still on the stock tires, but will need to replace the rear soon. Even after 18 months of owning it, this bike doesn't bore me in any way. I do not intend on getting a 600 because the gas mileage and insurance rates are amazing. To sum it up, I too recommend this amazing bike, and I wish it wasn't winter right now :( Ride safe everyone.

I picked up a new 2017 ninja 300 yesterday. 70 miles on it so far and I agree with your opinion. Im an experienced rider, 40 years old, 6'1 155 pounds 35" inseam. A little small for me but it actually feels like a pair of shoes that I love so much but are a half size too small but you wear them anyways because they fit great! I got mine model close out for 4,373 OTD. they are on sale right now in the U.S. for $2,999 with $250 off for veterans or active duty! Thanks Kawasaki!!

Good review. I bought my 2014 Ninja 300 SE two weeks ago for 3700$ with less than 2k miles. Its taking some getting used too. I formally owned a Yamaha 1300 VStar. Totally different ride! I do appreciate how light and maneuverable the Ninja is. It was so windy the other day, I thought I was going to get blown right off the highway, then it dawned on me that all I had to do was lay down on this bike and allow the air to blow right over my head. The only thing I don't like is the constant shifting in city driving. On my last bike I didn't have to shift pass third gear in the city.

Great review Fluxx. I currently have a 2011 CBR250R I purchased used with 1,300 miles. It is my first bike, never rode before ever. I took the safety course and purchased all the necessary gear. I really love the low weight of my bike. I was wondering what bike in the future to get and I want to continue with a bike that I can really throw around and use it to its max performance without killing myself. The Kawasaki 300 especially after seeing this review will probably be it. Thanks again you now have another subscriber.

Thanks for the feedback! You have definitely started on the right bike, id say before upgrading id look into doing a track day on your CBR250r and doing an instructional course, once you have done this and you have gotten all your riding techniques set and improving, you can look to upgrade to something like the Triumph Daytona 675r or CBR600rr if you want a sport bike. Ill be reviewing the Daytona 675r in the next week or two as well so keep an eye out for that.

Nice video.... however... I see you are shifting at about 4-5k, why? The ninja 300's power band is better used when shifting at 8-9k.... heck it maxes at 13k.... I know...it sounds like an angry bee when you shift at 8-9k, but it is made to run that way. When I take off on our local 4 lane.... i'm at 55 before I hit 3rd gear....and shifting at around 10k.... use your power, it is much more fun and you will find it is "snappier" on the response. Very good video...one of the better ones I have seen.

He may have been in the break-in period. The owner's manual suggests shifting at no higher than 4,000 RPMs for the first 800 km.
@billmcgraw1959
@billmcgraw1959 9 жыл бұрын
***** I have to laugh...sorry. I was pointing out that he says its a bit sluggish. Its only sluggish because he never waits until it hits the power band of 8-9k. That is were you should shift. I could care less what the manual says about the shifting... I put the manual in the garage closet. I have been riding for over 45 years and know when to shift. You sir are full of it if you think you need to shift to 6th gear at 35mph.... by doing that you are taxing the engine and "lugging" it, which is NOT a good thing, it leads to fouled plugs and clutch wear. Shift at or above 5k for level riding, which is usually first gear and 25mph, 2nd gear and about 33ish, 4th gear and 37ish....so as you can see sixth gear would be at or about 50 to 55 at that range. Shifting at 75% of its capacity of 13k would be in the 9-10k range.... which would put it at about 35 in first, 42ish in second 48 in third, 54 in fourth.... and that is at 9k to 10k..... wanna feel like a supersport... shift at 12k right below redline, the motor can take it... it was designed to take it. You will hit 60 in third.....or right at the beginning of fourth..... in about 7 seconds. I have only the front gear mod (one extra tooth)....no others. Ride it like you OWN it..... be safe, have fun :)

Very complete and objective, and to echo another commenter, no profanity (not that I care about that, but I did notice). Thanks! edit: I had to do a separate search for the gear indicator you mentioned at the beginning, though I can't see it in the video... where did you mount it?

You CAN probably move the front fork tubes up. I bought a used Ninja 250 that had been owned by a very short woman who had done it. But it requires an after market spacer that goes under the handlebar mount. I know this because I moved them back to stock and removed the spacer. Of course the handlebar is raised slightly. It appears that this would also apply to the Ninja 300.

Great video! My wife and I bought two 2014 Ninja 300SE ABS (Candy Orange) and absolutely love 'em. We have read some mixed reviews etc about the correct way to break-in the engines. Some say follow the manufacturers method (which makes it difficult and dangerous to ride out on the highway, and then there are others who say to use the 'hard break-in' method, like, selecting 1st gear and riding until 8000rpm, engine break back to around idle (or thereabouts), 2nd gear, wind it out to 8000rpm again, engine break back down again...and repeat for all six gears. We are interested in your thoughts on this apparently contentious topic! Kepp up the great work - very informative. W & B

I love my 2015 ninja 300 with yoshimura exhaust . I will say a month later I'm wishing I'd of listened to my sister and many others and went with a 650 . I actually think the ninja 300 looks way better than the ninja 650 but the fact that you can't downshift if needed to get out of trouble situations due to the gearing means you have to ride much more carefully when around other vehicles.

Great review indeed. I am looking to buy a brand new motorbike in the 250cc range as a starting bike as I am a new comer to riding. My number 1 choice is the Suzuki GW250Z Inazuma. However the dealer in my region won't bring it in until 3-4 months from now and this is not mentioning the 3 and a half months of following up and ending up with nothing. So I think this would be a good alternative for me. Very informative review, my biggest concern is what can the display tell me about my ride besides current speed? You mentioned it shows your speed, Fuel, Trip A and Trip B, ODO which is a given. But no gear indicator or temperature guage. I don't mind the gear indicator not being present as lots of bikes do that and I have trained on bikes with no gear indicator present anyway so this is alright. However the temperature guage, that will take time for me to understand when is my bike overheating or not in case it ever happens so it will take time to understand. Overall, I think this will be my alternative given that the Inazuma will be too little too late to arrive in the dealership.

One of the things I was told when I was researching bikes was the comfort. I was told by some "don't get a sports bike like a Ninja because you will hurt on long trips." These people were steering me in the direction of a road bike like the Honda Rebel. Since you own a Ninja 300 would you consider it a bike that isn't ideal for long trips? From the video it looks really smooth, but I guess you can't tell by watching a video.

Hey, I really need to know what you think of the Yamaha R3, cos im looking at this (ninja 300) and the R3 as i wanted a 600 but dont want to die, so need to learn first for a year. Also which is better the kawasaki NINJA ZX-6R or the yamaha R6 ? as i would like to trade the 300 for a 600 at the dealer. So yamaha R3 to yamaha R6 or kawasaki NINJA 300 to kawasaki NINJA ZX-6R.

Will shit,...Yamaha's YZF-R3 had my vote,but I'm starting to like this Ninja 300,also,...both great bikes for new riders from video reviews I have seen so far. I don't have a bike yet,but I am wanting one. I need to take a rider safety course first BEFORE even committing to a purchase of either bike. Forget about cruisers and dual purpose bikes,...the sport bikes have won me over. I think I'd be happy on either bike,especially while learning to ride. The CBR is out all because of it's single cylinder engine. It's a tie between the Ninja 300 and the R3 at this point.

By the way just a little curiosity, does the ninja 250 2015 model performs as good as the 300? Instead of just cc upgrade is there anything else that's different in it cause I own a 250 and it would be great to hear ur thoughts on it.....would be pleased to hear from a expert.

The dealer I went to charged me 6400 something for a non abs ninja 300 black. Haven't bought it yet, but some paperwork has been done.

I loved my two used 250 Ninjas; I'd like to get one of these used. I wondered why you didn't mention the fact that it is (finally for Kawai) fuel injected.

Want one so badly,I have a 155cc bike for about 4 months and it's reaaaaally underpowered and I still am a new rider but I do need to keep up with my 600cc friends so I looked into the 300cc instead of making such a big jump in power and let me finish learning how to ride confidently

oh yeah dude fine for group rides but when your in 6th redlining and your buddy flies past you in 3rd you kinda crave that power. :p

Haha well right now they pass me without moving out of first and I'm redlining in 5th so I'd look at it as an upgrade haha, at least they're nicer about it though they try hard to let me keep up, most of the time they leave me by a gap so I think at least doing 120km/h like 80mph is more than enough for the group ride

Great review. Just got a new 2015 abs version. Any problems with speed wobble? Have read quite a few people having an issue where they needed to change stem bearings to tapered ones. Btw...you sound like an airline pilot. Ahhh...weight of the bike....ahhh..great gas mileage.....ahhh...we'll be landing shortly.
