This bike is awesome! I've always loved the looks of the Ninja line, especially the smaller, more standard Ninja's, and this one is still just as gorgeous as the ones before.

What I love the most is that Kawasaki has decided to up the game a little by moving out of the 250cc category, which has a certain stigma, and into the 300cc presumably to attract more first time buyers. This bike will be great for learners and beginners and will hopefully give people an option to starting on a 650 or 750 just to avoid the 250 mark. Nicely done!

Thanks to everyone who voted on this very popular new 2013 Kawasaki Ninja 300! We had a record turn out in voters and the Ninja 300 goes down as the most voted on bike in one week.... but in the end you want results! And here they are:

Your Coolness Factor of the 2013 Kawasaki Ninja 300 ABS is...

Awesome 58%
Cool 39%
Uncool 3%
Fail 0%

It's great to see a starter bike do so well on the Cool Wall! 97% of votes were either Awesome or Cool with Awesome leading at 56%. There is no question that starting on a small bike is very, very cool.

I went to the local dealership tonight to get a new battery for my V-strom, and they had a Ninja 300 out on the floor. What a sweet little bike! I sat on it, it seems very well balanced. And it's very nicely proportioned and well laid out, a big guy like me could comfortably ride it.
