It’s time to turn the Moto-Spotlight to one of our favorite and most popular bike, the Kawasaki Ninja 300.  As one of the industries worst kept secrets, Kawasaki has been producing some of the most affordable, reliable, and stylish small engine motorcycles for over 30 years.  The Ninja 250r has long been one of the highest rated beginner bikes due to its low-cost, ease of maintenance, and rider friendly ergonomics.  When Kawasaki brought the Ninja 300 to market in 2012, they took everything that made the Ninja 250r so appealing and gave it more power with modern styling and technology.  This new layout puts out 39hp, and 19lb-ft torque, over the 250r’s 29hp, 15lb-ft torque.   The 300r features a new 296cc liquid cooled parallel-twin engine with fuel injection, 6-speed wet slipper clutch, digital gauges, and ABS brake option.  The low seat height and adjustable suspension makes the Ninja adept to nearly any rider size and skill without having to use aftermarket modifications.  Weighing in at about 380lbs with all fluids means that it is one of the easiest bikes to control for even the lightest, most inexperienced of riders.  With the Ninja 300, Kawasaki has solidified its place as the standout choice for beginner to intermediate level riders.

As personal fans of the Ninja 300, you can be sure to find competitively priced used examples in our inventory year-round.  Featured here is a 2014 model with ABS brake option and just 1500 miles.   Check out the pictures and more details here.
