Thankyou, great reveiw. Honest and straight forward. I.own couple of sport bikes. 600 and also ninja 300. One really good point you bring up is ninja 300 is average at rpm below 7 k but once it crosses it acts like a mini Supersport. This rush of power reminds you and everyone around you on road that it is actually not a beginner bike. Being low and short gearing is critical to ninja 300 perfomance. I would just accept it and enjoy it. A sport 600 cc power is not usable on road as around 4 k. One feels extremely risky behavior on road.
Exactly. This motorcycle acts like a 150cc below 7000rpm and once past that it becomes a beast. Yes I upgraded to a zx10r and the power of that motorcycle is not useable on our roads. Though the zx is a lot powerfull, I still love the 300 for its quickness and nimbleness.
Thanks bro. My apache is 11 years old now. I am still using it for daily commuting. Regarding upgrading to supersport I just upgraded to a zx10r last december. Will be soon posting its videos in a couple of months.
Very useful video sir ...pls also suggest on the engine performance after running so many kms...is the engine still ok or shows aging signs? You may be feeling loss of power now
No such things. Now the 300 year crossed 10 years and is almost 84000kms on the odo. I am using it as my daily commute now. I have to say it's one hell of a motorcycle. Will be soon posting a 10 year ownership review. Stay tuned.
I still remember having wallpapers of the ninja 300 on my workstation in office (when we could change the wallpaper). I got my first bike in 2013. It was a small little fz16. Loved it. But the love for ninja 300 never died. I would always say to my friends that someday I will buy the ninja 300. Started saving up, cent by cent, pound by pound for 3 long years. Fast forward 9th November 2017 (same date as my brother's birthday) received Gamora (my precious). Ninja 300 didnt even make sense then with Dukes and RCs around. But 4 years on I couldnt have been a happier person. The engine is butter smooth and the parallel twin have the perfect displacement. Bigger parallel twin tend to sound like bullets or dukes. On highways, with a pillion at 150kmph, the bike barely breaks a sweat but you might. Its a capable little tourer and its everything i dreamt of and a bit more. The build quality is very good but not great. Gamora was the last of the imported ones and she is here to stay for a pretty long time.
Spot on. My story is similar too. Got my apache 180 in 2010 after a long struggle. Really great and finally you got what you loved. My brother has a rc390 which is of course faster. But the ninja beats it in reliability smoothness looks etc. Even after getting the mighty zx10r, the 300 is still my reliable work horse. More happy miles ahead.
@@Travelwithzx10r there is no two way about Japanese reliability. I have spent almost 75k riding Japanese engineered bikes and never had any complaints.
Bro, I'm planning to book the new BS6 version Ninja 300 by April... Just need your help to upload a separate video about Highways performance of Ninja 300 bcos most of my frequent ride would be between Chennai to Bangalore and monthly once ride to some cool destinations.. 1) At what speed is the engine butter smooth without no vibrations at all and what RPM is it at ? Along with Mileage figures at that speed ... b) How long or many kms can you constantly ride without stressing the engine ? Have you did this test before ? c) How's the heat management at highways at those cruising speed ? We all know how hot TN heats up on April & May month.. d) After a continuous ride, did you feel any body ache ? And was it severe ? Just curious bcos I'm planning for a long term ownership so I have to be very cautious of my health e) How's the Pillion comfort ? How long can they sit comfortably without pain in their butts ? Is it scary to sit bcos there is no proper grab rails unlike other bikes? f) What is the company recommended service intervals ? I saw you take your bike to your friends place...I will check them out once my warranty is worn out.. g) if there is any that I have missed, please include that too..
Good decision bro. Its a very good highway rider. Will be very good for your chennai bangalore ride. a. The engine is buttersmooth throughout the rpm range. b. The engine does not stress since its a liquid cooled engine. I have done 940kms in a single day for almost 16hrs. So the engine doesnt stress out. c.Heat management is excellent. Even in stop and go traffic you dont feel any heat. d.Body pain will be there. You need to keep yourself somewhat fit. Use some quality gel pad inner wear during long rides and use proper gloves and riding gears to make the ride somewhat comfortable. e. Pillion comfort is pathetic. Riding for more than 30 minutes itself is very difficult. f.company recommended service interval is 10000kms or 1 year. I have already planned to make a video regarding the touring capabilities of the 300. Will post soon. Cheers.
@@ShaanSundar you can change front (put bigger) and rear (put less) sprockets to increase speed on highway and decrease RPM of engine and fuel consumption for long rides between cities. First two gears on Ninja 300 are very very short, thats anoying me most.
Nice review.. However just wanted to check on the ground clearance issue... How did you manage it? I heard a lot of them complaining about the ground clearance and how it is causing issues.
Thanks bro. Now its 9 years and 78000kms on the odo. The 300 is still with me. Now by just looking at the speed breaker I can find out which one will hit the under belly and which one would pass through without scraping. Initially it was very difficult. On bigger speed breakers I just take the motorcycle in a crossed position instead of going straight over the speed breaker.
@@Travelwithzx10r I see that is going to be a tuff, I was planning to purchase one. No doubt as you said its a capable machine but short comings like this is something which makes me have second thoughts. I guess in that case I can forget about going on long tours like ladak on this😅
@@entername3840 there is a twist. Mine is a 2014 ninja 300 and has a ground clearance of 135mm. Todays 300s have a better ground clarance of 145mm. So its not as bad as it seems. My zx10r has 145mm ground clearance and it is very comfortable over the speed breakers . Long tours are ok. I have done a lot of them. I know people who went to ladakh with the 135mm GC ninja 300. I haven't been to ladakh so far. So apart from ground clearance I don't know whether there are any other shortcomings with the ninja 300 while riding on off road terrains 😀😀. But it performs very well on highways and even on hill stations.
First chain sprocket lasted upto 36000kms. After 30000kms it started giving some noises but I managed to ride it upto 36000kms. Again I changed it at 68000kms. I have not changed the clutch assembly so far.
Sir which one is better choice z250 or ninja 300 in second hand I dont go long trips and i need good handling in cities And mileage is very important Also share which one cost more maintanence
Usually kawasakis are high on maintanance when compared to ktms and other brands. Even the chain sprocket of the ninja300 costs 12k whereas the KTMs cost around 3.5k. But kawasakis built like tanks. You dont get break down or any minor complaints regularly and are very reliable. So even though the maintanance is more, you don't have to visit the workshops regularly and have a peacefull ride. My ninja 300 returns around 30kmpl on highways at around 120kmph. If you are on highways the 250 should give similar mileage. In cities the z250 will have better mileage and handling owing to its naked design.
I would suggest the Ninja 300. Though both the motorcycles are similarly powered, the ninja is lighter and has better build quality. Personally I prefer the looks of the ninja over the benelli. Also kawasaki has more service network across India. The only area where benelli scores better is its better ground clearance. Better get a test ride of both the motorcycles and then go for the one which your heart says ok👍👍.
I am 185 bare foot. Ninja 300 will suit you but you will be bending your knees too much while riding. I used to stretch my legs every 10 or 15 minutes while riding. But again we should be careful not to scrape our boots on the road while doing so. Also while crouching your helmet will almost reach the key hole. These are the issues iam facing while riding my 300. Ground clearance was the major issue for me(135mm) but newer 300s are having better ground clearance(145mm). So the 300 will definitely suit you.
Excellent review 👍!! Ninja is an amazing bike. If maintained well they last for a long time. Ofcourse it's expected to be pricy owning one. But once you have lived with a Kawasaki there's no going back to other Indian alternatives 😁. Wish you many many more happy miles. 🏍️🤟🏼
It does happens when the tyre becomes old. But mostly the wheel locks and goes in a straight line. So the chances of skidding and falling are very low.
Very nice review first time to see your video i want to buy 300 segment but im in confusion what would your choice between ninja and rc 390 bs6 in all aspects including relaibilty also for long term use please let me know u r opinion thank you new subscriber
Thank you so much bro. If reliability and long term usage are your preference then ninja 300 is the one. The 300 is built like a tank. My 300 has done 77000+kms and is still running strong. But unlike my 300 which is CBU todays ninja 300 are assembled in India and are not as good as the one I am having. My brother is having a RC390 and even the ktm has done 50000+kms but is prone to repairs and problems. The fork oil seal requires frequent replacement and now his fuel injector has failed and needs replacement. But maintaining a ktm is much lighter on the pocket than a ninja 300. For example the chain sprocket set of the 390 costs somewhere around 4000 rupees while the 300s sprocket costs 12000 rupees. Of course the 300s sprocket runs twice as much as the ktms sprocket and needs less trips to the service centre . You can take the ninja 300 any time anywhere without any worries about breakdown or repair but the same cannot be said about the ktm. Regarding performance the ktm is more powerful, faster and nimble. The ninja 300 has a better top speed on paper but getting that speed on road is not easy. The ninja 300 is more comfortable to ride and runs cool whereas the ktm heats a lot and the riding position is more track oriented. Hope this helps. Please feel free to comment for any doubts.
@@Travelwithzx10r first of all thank you for your valid reply to me you are a true bike lover and vloger for your subscribers actually i am trying to get 300cc segmwnt from past 2 years its my dream this is my first big bike but i am so much confused about service reach of kawasaki thats why i put option to ktm also frankly i am not quiker person in bike i need most value for money bike and i want to keep with me very long time happily
@@ravikanthbevara3620 yes forgot about the service network of kawasaki. Tamil Nadu is having just 2 centres one at chennai is 630kms from my home one way and another one at coimbatore is 430kms one way travel. Luckily I have friend near my native (110kms) who services superbikes. I am servicing my zx10r also there. Just check if you have any good service person nearby if the authorised service centre is too far. Else it is better to go with ktm. It is not advisable to service these motorcycles at local workshops.
Definitely. But we have to be as cautious as driving the 135mm version. Over time we will get experienced and we can asses which speed breaker will scrape the bottom and which won't just by looking at it. The 5mm difference may seem very small on paper but it does makes a lot of difference on road.
@@Travelwithzx10r thank you so much for the swift response. I like the z series so much but they didn’t launch the z400 yet. Not much into middle weight or the litre class because we wont fully utilise the power band. So i was zeroing on the ninja 300 and came across another video explaining the after thought by Kawasaki. Really helpful :)
Keep going sir, Always on favourate list . Love from kerala.,even i own one sir. Pls share the workshop person address or number. Love from Thrissur district to be precise.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
ruclips.net/video/Rvui3MpHaVg/видео.html I have shared the contact details in the description of above video bro. I just recently upgraded to a zx10r and I am servicing it too at the same place. Once again thanks for watching.
It depends on the usage bro. The ninja is costlier more refined and reliable. The rc390 seen in the video has also run more than 50000kms. The Rc needs frequent trips to the workshop. But it is very cheap to maintain. The ninjas parts are costlier but is built to last. If you can afford it better to go with the 300 or even you can go for the ninja400.
Thanks for the video, I own the same bike and recently done 2000+ kms and yes no issues with the bike. You explained in detail but can you please share more details about the mirrors that you have put. These mirrors seems to be of ZX10R. I am in badly need of these mirror. Can you please share the link where you baught it from. And is there any thing required to install these mirrors. Probably you can do another video too. But if you can atleast share the details here I would appreciate it.
Sorry for the late reply, I was having covid 19. Those are zx10r mirrors. I bought them through aliexpress and now it is not available. Professional installation is needed since we have to drill a hole in the visor for wiring purpose. Also I have upgraded myself to a 2019 zx10r and the mirrors coming with the zx10r has a lot better quality than the ones we are purchasing online.
@@rushithombare4471 looks are subjective. Personally I like the 300s looks over the 400. The ninja400 costs 2 lakhs more than the 300. A few bucks more and you can buy the ninja650. But the ninja400 is more powerful and premium than the 300. Better have a test ride of both bikes and then decide.
That's pretty neat! I own a 2016 duke390, despite my top notch maintenance, my shims, valves, timing chain got busted 😐 i have spent 25k on these. i use motul 300v2 , engine ice high performance coolant and will service at every 5k kms. you know, i have heard things like, once you open up the engine, it will keep on trouble you, i mean it needs to be opened again for regular maintenance. i am wondering if you are gonna change shims in your motorcycle, how long does it last?
Sorry for the late reply, I was having covid 19. My younger brother is having a rc390 and done 54000kms. He was also regularly facing issues with shims and timing chain. Ninjas shims were good upto around 50000kms. Then started to problems. Soon I have to change the shim. Will be doing it in a couple of months.
Not great. But I have upgraded to philips extreme vision bulb and its better now. The problem is the drl is on the right side and the high beam is almost useless. Anyway the light is much better when compared to my zx10r😁😁
That is my brothers 2016 rc390 and it has done 51000kms so far. A lot of trips to the service center and issues as well. Engine replacement has been done once. Since we maintain our bikes well its running good now.

You can if you have the facility to service nearby. Travelling 600kms for each service is not possible I think.

Definitely. But we have to be as cautious as driving the 135mm version. Over time we will get experienced and we can asses which speed breaker will scrape the bottom and which won't just by looking at it. The 5mm difference may seem very small on paper but it does makes a lot of difference on road.

Not much into middle weight or the litre class because we wont fully utilise the power band. So i was zeroing on the ninja 300 and came across another video explaining the after thought by Kawasaki. Really helpful :)
@@raaktalks2132 you are welcome.
have you ever change your timing chain tensioner in your ownership? if yes in how many kilometres?
Not yet bro. But its overdue. Mostly I will be doing it in next service.
@@Travelwithzx10r okay so on many kilometres it timing chain tensioner started showing its symptoms?

I have shared the contact details in the description of above video bro. I just recently upgraded to a zx10r and I am servicing it too at the same place. Once again thanks for watching.
Are radiator guards really needed for ninja 300 ?
It is better to have one. But I am using it without a guard.
Where did you took services for ninja ? I mean adress
ruclips.net/video/Rvui3MpHaVg/видео.html
I have mentioned the address in the description.
How do you feel is ninja is worth or rc 390
It depends on the usage bro. The ninja is costlier more refined and reliable. The rc390 seen in the video has also run more than 50000kms. The Rc needs frequent trips to the workshop. But it is very cheap to maintain. The ninjas parts are costlier but is built to last. If you can afford it better to go with the 300 or even you can go for the ninja400.
Old is gold bro
Yes 😀.
17000 rupees for a chain and sprocket? I thought benelli's were expensive but Goddamn!!
Kawasakis are costly but the quality of the product is also excellent. Its worth the rupees we pay.
Sir have done engine rebuild clutch change?
Not yet. I inspected the clutch plates at 50000km service and it was in good condition at that time. But engine needs shim kit replacement.
Thanks for the video, I own the same bike and recently done 2000+ kms and yes no issues with the bike.
You explained in detail but can you please share more details about the mirrors that you have put. These mirrors seems to be of ZX10R. I am in badly need of these mirror. Can you please share the link where you baught it from. And is there any thing required to install these mirrors.
Probably you can do another video too. But if you can atleast share the details here I would appreciate it.
Sorry for the late reply, I was having covid 19. Those are zx10r mirrors. I bought them through aliexpress and now it is not available. Professional installation is needed since we have to drill a hole in the visor for wiring purpose.
Also I have upgraded myself to a 2019 zx10r and the mirrors coming with the zx10r has a lot better quality than the ones we are purchasing online.
Will ninja 400 comes in India??
Ninja400 is already in sale in India.
@@Travelwithzx10r should I buy ninja 400 over ninja 300 looks really matters for me what would you suggest ?
@@rushithombare4471 looks are subjective. Personally I like the 300s looks over the 400. The ninja400 costs 2 lakhs more than the 300. A few bucks more and you can buy the ninja650. But the ninja400 is more powerful and premium than the 300. Better have a test ride of both bikes and then decide.
Great Riding... Long Association 😊
Thanks bro
That's pretty neat!
I own a 2016 duke390, despite my top notch maintenance, my shims, valves, timing chain got busted 😐 i have spent 25k on these. i use motul 300v2 , engine ice high performance coolant and will service at every 5k kms.
you know, i have heard things like, once you open up the engine, it will keep on trouble you, i mean it needs to be opened again for regular maintenance. i am wondering if you are gonna change shims in your motorcycle, how long does it last?
Sorry for the late reply, I was having covid 19. My younger brother is having a rc390 and done 54000kms. He was also regularly facing issues with shims and timing chain.
Ninjas shims were good upto around 50000kms. Then started to problems. Soon I have to change the shim. Will be doing it in a couple of months.
How is the throw of light on night?
Not great. But I have upgraded to philips extreme vision bulb and its better now. The problem is the drl is on the right side and the high beam is almost useless. Anyway the light is much better when compared to my zx10r😁😁
@@Travelwithzx10r thanks sir for the info....
@@dinensur1997 you are welcome.
Super
Thanks machi.
❤️🔥
Sir but what about maintenance cost
I have explained in detail about the maintenance in the 2nd half of the video bro.
Duke 390 killer😚😚😚😚
Duke 390 killer post 140kmph 😁😁.
I hope rc 390 and any ktm wont last more than 50k kms
I seen engine failures 20k kms 30k kms
That is my brothers 2016 rc390 and it has done 51000kms so far. A lot of trips to the service center and issues as well. Engine replacement has been done once. Since we maintain our bikes well its running good now.
Nice sir
Thank you.
