- Appears to get a basic colour update.
- Likely to gain 1-2kg thanks to the BS6 update.
- Engine performance likely to remain unchanged, expect a minor drop if any.
- Expect a price hike of around Rs 20,000
Our sources have revealed the BS6 Kawasaki Ninja 300 is slated to be launched in the first week of March 2021. Visually, the bike appears to be untouched, except for, of course, the new KRT livery. It’s expected to be priced around Rs 3.2 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi) -- Rs 20,000 more than before. Unofficial bookings for the bike are underway for a token amount ranging between Rs 10,000 and Rs 50,000, depending on the dealership.

We were expecting the BS6 Ninja to get several updates ranging from a new LED headlight to a full-digital instrument console and minor design tweaks. Unfortunately, Kawasaki has decided to play it safe and stick to the same eight-year-old design with a split halogen headlamp and dated analogue-digital display.

The only other noticeable change, so to speak, could be the BS6-compliant 296cc parallel-twin motor. Its performance is likely to remain unchanged, with 39PS at 11000rpm and 27Nm at 10000rpm. Even if there is a drop, it will be insignificant. That said, the added weight of the larger cat, which is expected to go up by 1-2kg, may affect the bike's power-to-weight ratio. For reference, the BS4 bike weighed 179 kg kerb. That’s all there is to the BS6 Ninja 300. Its hardware will be carried over from the BS4 model.
The Kawasaki Ninja 300 BS6 will go toe-to-toe against the BS6 KTM RC 390.
Kawasaki Ninja 300 User Reviews
- A Budget BeastBeen using it for almost 5 years now and never had it left me on the road stranding. The bike is a superstar with almost 26-30 mileage, it is just an unbeatable combination of power and efficiency. Cornering is so much fun after I upgraded the three and barely I was ever unsatisfied with the looks and styling its got.Read More4 4
- Performance and reliabilityI chose Ninja 300 for its performance, strong top-end power as I was about passionate about riding. Its good beginner- friendly and revs without being jerky. Has comfortable ergonomics and is a balanced bike with reliability. So far engine was smooth and linear. Sporty but not aggressive and power is usable for city and highways. Longer rider are somewhat comfortable and is stable. Display and techs are basic and is slightly heavy. Braking could be sharper to some extent. Yes, I would recommend Ninja 300 for smooth, reliable and well-balanced to ride easily and still have fun on rides. It tend to have better performance but lacks some basic features which other bikes in the same segment offer.Read More4 2
- Smooth engine, strong highway performance and sporI choose this bike mainly because of its smooth engine and highway comfort. It feels very stable at high speed and gives confidence while riding. Looks are sporty and premium which I liked. In city suspension feels little stiff but I was ok with that compromise. Ride experience is mostly positive. On highways it feels planted and smooth even at higher speed. Handling is very good and cornering feels safe. Mileage is decent not too low not too high. In city traffic and bad roads you feel bumps little more. Yes I will recommend this bike to people who love riding on highways and enjoy sporty riding style. It is not for someone who want soft suspension or only daily city use. Buy it if you want performance and feel, avoid if mileage is main concern.Read More2 2
