2027 Kawasaki Ninja 300 ABS Totalmotorcycle.com Features and Benefits
WELCOME TO NINJA®
A long lineage of legendary performance starts with the most approachable model yet: the Kawasaki Ninja® 300 ABS motorcycle. Welcome to Ninja®.
SPORT STARTS HERE
Sport performance starts with a 296cc parallel-twin engine, producing smooth, torquey power at low to medium rpm and strong acceleration at high rpm.
CLUTCH CONFIDENCE
Ride bold with an Assist & Slipper Clutch. The assist function helps you enjoy an exceptionally light clutch pull and wide clutch engagement range for confident control, while the slipper function reduces rear-wheel skipping and hopping when downshifting for more confidence.
FULL POWER RANGE
Smooth power delivery combines with strong low-end torque for confidence at low speeds. Experience a high level of control during incremental throttle adjustments and a gratifying rush of acceleration in the lower rpm ranges. Low vibrations and ample top end make city cruising and highway commutes comfortable.
HANDLE THIS
Handling is crucial to the Ninja® sportbike feel. The Ninja® 300 ABS motorcycle is built with a superb frame, suspension, and braking setup, worthy of the Ninja name.
FRAME OF STEEL
A steel-tube diamond frame offers high strength and high durability—both essential in a strong, sport-performance frame.
STAY PLANTED
The rigid 37mm telescopic front fork provides excellent suspension action, giving you exceptional ride comfort and a firmly planted front wheel feel for easy direction changes and confident handling in every riding situation. Bottom-link Uni-Trak® rear suspension with 5-way preload adjustability lets you adjust the stiffness and ride height to suit body weight or 2-up riding.
STOP ON A DIME
A large-diameter 290mm front petal disc brake operated by a dual-piston caliper delivers powerful braking and a natural feel at the lever, while the 220mm petal disc and dual-piston caliper slow the rear wheel. ABS comes standard and ensures stable braking performance by preventing wheel lock during braking.
SPORT COMFORT
Sport riding meets street comfort with the Ninja® 300 ABS motorcycle. A sporty riding position, lower seat height, and excellent ride quality make the Ninja 300 ABS ideal for sport riding, and fully Ninja®.
RIDE THE PART
With a slightly forward-leaning seat and wide, raised handlebars, the ergonomics accommodate a wide range of riders. Ideal for sport riding or 2-up riding, the Ninja® 300 ABS feels just as sporty on city streets as highway lanes.
STAY GROUNDED
A low 30.9-in seat height offers a lower center of gravity with the ability to flat-foot during stops.
A COOL RIDE
Stay cool in traffic and slow cruising. Innovative Kawasaki-patented heat management technology, like the radiator fan cover, directs hot air away from you.
LIVES UP TO THE HYPE
From the aggressive dual headlights to the sharp tail cowl, every surface of the Ninja® 300 ABS motorcycle was sculpted to live up to the Ninja® standard: sporty fit and finish, impressive silhouette, and undeniable presence.
DESIGNED TO SHINE
Dual-projector headlights offer aggressive styling and a sporty appearance. With a sharp, focused beam pattern, they provide excellent illumination while giving the front profile bold supersport character.
LARGER THAN LIFE
With a large-volume bodywork, the Ninja® 300 ABS gives the imposing image of a larger machine—an image reinforced by the entire Ninja® lineup.
READS LIKE A DREAM
A large, analogue-style tachometer delivers high legibility and features a multi-function LCD screen with speedometer, clock, fuel gauge, dual trip meters, odometer, and Economical Riding Indicator.
