Own 2015 Ninja 300, got it new, Its 2022 now and still have it. Preparing to upgrade for the new one, probably Ninja 400, but love this bike so much, can't let her go. Hit 35K miles on ODO, Put Michelin Street Pilot tires, K&N high performance filter and carbon fiber 2bros exhaust, mostly like to ride on mountain twisty roads, great handling and power for 300cc. Very easy to maintain, takes 2.2 qt of oil, both rear and front brake pads are the same, chain for N300 and tires are fairly cheap, parts available like M&M candies 🙂If you find one in decent shape, go ahead and buy it, you will not regret... You all ride safe✌
@@matthewwalter1223 you made a good choice 👍 let me recommend you a few: 1.change oil and filter very 1st thing you need to do, get a foil paper and wrap around exhaust below the filter, otherwise oil will drip on exhaust when you removing the filter and you will see and smell borning oil for a bit. It takes 2.2 quarts 10W40, do NOT overfill. Above the drain bolt there is a small round shaped window, make sure oil is RIGHT IN MIDDLE, after you idle run and then check. 2. Make sure rear tire PSI is 32 and front tire PSI 28. 3. Lube the chain in the evening so it will stay overnight, this is better than just lube and drive right away in the morning and make sure it is not loose or over tight, as a rule of thumb it should have a play about an 1.5 inch . 4. Ride your own ride and ride safe ✌️
This is the most spot-on review I’ve ever watched. I’m 53 & have had my red 2016 Kawasaki ninja since 2017 when I bought it brand new for $3,000. I’ve been riding it for 6 years now & still love it & have no plans of getting anything else. 🔥🏍🔥
Review is spot on. Exactly what I thought when I got my learners and bought a ninja 300 for my first bike. It taught me how to become a better rider before increasing the power.
@siccandtwistted. How much was the price and how many km on it please? I have an offer of 3600euro with 30,800km 2014 and not sure if that's a good deal or i should negotiate etc
That was a pretty good review! My first sports bike was a Ninja 600, had a blast but I always wanted the big Ninja and eventually I got the ZX11 when it came out. One of those days, will find an used one! Got to feed the nostalgic me!
@@kikokiklis1757 maybe for European market N300 was produced only with ABS. If it has, there is a ABS logo on front wheel side, close to yellow round reflector and also when you start the engine the ABS light comes on on dashboard (guess as a reminder that you know it has it) and it goes off as soon as you start riding. Also you can not turn ABS on and off manually on this bike, like some high performance bike has that function... ✌️
Absolutely, I mostly ride on mountain twisty roads which is perfect for it but N300 ALSO can handle highways with easy, sure it does not have that overtaking speed like the 600cc's do but still much faster then a normal cars on the freeways...own N300 almost 7 years, 35K riding miles experience - Its a great bike 👍
Get N300, put K&N high performance filter, put actually sports tires (not touring tires), remove stock exhaust, it's heavy, and get something lighter, use high quality oil, like Royal Purple, it takes 10W40, 2.2 qt. EASY to maintain. You will have a LOT of fun on this bike, I own 2015 N300, got it new, still have it now, hit 35K miles on it. Great bike....✌
Loved learning on my little cbr250! People would ask me if it was on because it was so quiet 😂 only downside is having to shift so much
The little bikes are soo quiet! Definitely needs a slip on exhaust.
The more you shift the funner

By experience, I had 30 bikes, when you love a bike so much, you dont upgrade, you keep it !
Im in the same situation I still have my 2014 kawasaki 300
I bought a 2014 ninja 300, 11,680 miles for 2,600$ two days ago 🎉 can’t wait to get my license plate and plug the flat tire

Just purchased a beautiful white ninja 300 today. It's being delivered Tuesday. Can't wait to ride it.

I just got a 2014 Kawasaki Ninja 300 yesterday!!!! Looks exactly the same haha I can't wait to start riding 👹

@@tamerelfaramawy2614 Did you get it?
Thanks for this video, helped someone looking to buy their first bike!

Awesome review man. I love mine, you explained it perfectly.
Thanks man!
I'm getting one of these for my daughter today. Great review, thanks.
Do you shift up with no clutch, sorry man I'm new to this
Hey! Cool video thanks for that! Btw, Every Ninja 300 has ABS. It is not optional 😅
My ninja 300 is without ABS
It is optional, there are with ABS and without ABS versions ✌
Hmm i did not know that. I live in Europe and all my friends have with abs and they never saw anyone without.. but good to know

@@otarsulava seems like you are right 👍
Is it a single rider, or can 2 people ride on it?
Honestly not sure why I’m watching this cause I own a ninja 300😂 I kinda just wanted to see what others think of “my” ride
Just bought one and literally same
How can you shift without using the clutch?
I wonder if it's safe to ride on the interstate.
It was plenty fast for freeway riding, comfortable too.
It will do Interstate speed, but plan ahead, the power is real low at those speeds. I had a 15.

Brother i have a question i want a 300 ,....do u think it'll do better with a power comander i just don't want to buy a 400 ....

How much for a kawasaki 300 ?
.. My advice stay off actual streets Don't go above 30 mph Get electric no license no insurance
