Latest Updates
Wednesday, 02 August 2023 11:52 AM The 2024 Kawasaki Z300 ABS has been announced, featuring a liquid-cooled 948cc inline-Four DOHC engine that produces 114 hp at 9,710 rpm and 67.3 lb-ft of torque at 7,990 rpm. The bike includes Kawasaki TRaction Control, power modes, and smartphone connectivity through the Rideology app. I think these updates make the Z300 a compelling choice for riders seeking both performance and technology.
Wednesday, 02 August 2023 05:12 PM The Z300 SE ABS has been upgraded with a Brembo front brake package, a large-diameter inverted fork, and an Öhlins S46 rear shock. These enhancements are aimed at improving handling and performance. The bike is available in a Metallic Spark Black / Metallic Matte Graphenesteel Gray / Candy Lime Green colorway for Rs. 11,29,900. I believe these upgrades will significantly enhance the riding experience.
Wednesday, 02 August 2023 02:04 AM The 2024 Kawasaki Z300 ABS is priced at Rs. 9,79,900 for the Metallic Spark Black / Metallic Matte Dark Gray color option, and Rs. 10,09,900 for the Candy Persimmon Red / Ebony colorway. This pricing makes the Z300 ABS a competitive option in the naked sportbike segment.
Tuesday, 06 June 2023 03:38 AM The 2023 Kawasaki Z300 did not receive any mechanical updates, retaining the same engine and chassis as the previous model. However, it did get new color options and minor cosmetic changes. I think this stability in design shows Kawasakis confidence in the current model.
Wednesday, 03 March 2021 10:01 AM Kawasaki launched the BS6 compliant version of the Z300 in India, meeting the stringent emission norms. The bike did not receive any notable mechanical changes but saw a price hike due to the compliance. This move ensures the Z300 remains available in the Indian market.
Saturday, 28 December 2019 04:30 PM The BS4 version of the Kawasaki Z300 was discontinued temporarily as the company prepared to launch the BS6 compliant model. This transition was necessary to adhere to Indias new emission standards. I believe this was a necessary step to keep the model relevant.
Friday, 20 July 2018 03:56 AM In 2018, Kawasaki introduced the locally assembled Z300 ABS in India, featuring new graphics and paint options. The addition of ABS made the bike safer and more appealing to riders. This update was well-received in the market.

Kawasaki Z300 Review

20 Nov, 2018 10:59 AM

Overview

Kawasaki Z300 is the naked version of Ninja 300 and is based on the same rock-solid platform. Being a street fighter, Z300’s level of fit and finish is quite aggressive setting it apart from the crowd. It’s rawness for the city streets and a muscular design does shriek awesome. It competes in the market with the likes of Yamaha MT-03 and Benelli TNT 300 in its segment.

 

The Kawasaki Z300 shares the high-performance engine with Ninja 300 at its heart. It is powered by a  296 cc, Parallel-twin, liquid cooled, DOHC 8 valve engine that is capable of producing a maximum power of 38.5 BHP at 11000 rpm and an utmost torque of 27 Nm at 10000 rpm. The engine is mated to a 6-speed gearbox. The upright riding position offers a relaxed ride and the wide handlebars offer active rider control. The sporty instrument console with an analogue tachometer, speedometer, clock, fuel gauge, dual trip meters, odometer and Economical Riding Indicator gives a superior feel. 

 

The street fighter’s high performance has led it to dominate the 300cc class. Coming to the suspension, the duties are handled by 37 mm telescopic forks at the front and Bottom-Link UNI-TRAK with 5-way adjustable preload at the rear. It gets a single 290mm petal disc, dual-piston calliper at the front and a single 220 mm petal disc with twin-piston calliper with ABS at the rear. A rigid diamond frame with fine-tuning offers chassis stability for sports riding. The Multi-reflector headlamp gives it an authentic Kawasaki’s “Z” family looks while the slim tail cowl gives it an overall aggressive stance.

With a kerb weight of 170 kg and a ground clearance of 145mm, the Kawasaki Z300 ensures an excellent riding quality with a stable handling at the corners. The slipper clutch guarantees a smooth acceleration while the flat handlebars give more dynamic control in the city streets. The Kawasaki Z300 will be available in 3 stunning shades- Metallic Spark Black, Candy Flat  and Blazed Green.

An impressive machine and a great choice for those looking for a fun

Kanishk Goyal | One year ago

The Z125 Pro is an incredibly fun bike to ride around town. The engine delivers a smooth and predictable power, allowing you to easily zip in and out of traffic and up the steepest grades of San Francisco. The four-speed gearbox helps with throttle control and provides a safe and comfortable ride for newer riders.

The brakes, while modest, are more than adequate for controlling this machine. The 200mm petal-style disc up front with the Nissan two-piston caliper, and the 184mm petal-style disc in the rear, provide adequate stopping power.

However, the Z125 Pro may not be the best option for taller riders. With a seat height of just 30.3 inches, a rider pushing into the 6’ range may find that their knees meet the bars easily. Taller bars and adjustable rear sets may be necessary to make this bike more comfortable for taller riders.

Overall, the Kawasaki Z125 Pro is an impressive machine and a great choice for those looking for a fun and reliable urban commuter. It's small size, smooth power delivery, and adequate braking system make it a great choice for new and experienced riders alike.

Great choice for those looking for power and performance.

Sana Ifran Khan | One year ago

This bike is a great choice for those looking for power and performance. It has a powerful 900cc inline 4 cylinder engine that gives out a lot of torque and power. The bike has an impressive mileage of 20kmpl on long rides and 18kmpl in traffic, making it one of the most efficient bikes in its price range. The bike is also suitable for riders of heights between 5.5 and 6 feet, thanks to its long and narrow design. The only downside is that the bike is quite expensive, but if you are looking for a great superbike experience under 10 lacs, the Kawasaki Z900 is the perfect option. Be sure to drive safely and enjoy the ride!

Great power delivery

Charu Jain | One year ago

The overall look of the bike is good and it has a great power delivery. It also has a comfortable sitting position which makes it suitable for long rides. With its lower seating posture, it gives a sporty feel. However, it may not be suitable for touring due to its almost upright seating which can be quite heavy compared to other bikes.

The ergonomics of the Kawasaki Z900 are great and make for a comfortable ride. The performance of the bike is outstanding with a strong throttle response and the quick shifter is a great addition to the experience. The inline 4 sound is an amazing attraction and the pickup is incredibly fast. The overall look of the bike is beautiful and the exhaust note is smooth and sharp. This bike is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a powerful and reliable superbike.

Lightweight Machine for Bike Lovers

Aham Upadhya | 4 years ago

Kawasaki Z250 is a comfortable motorcycle with perfect quality and good top-end grunt. It has an aggressive front and looks like a big motorcycle. The brakes are strong and friendly if you need them but ABS is omitted from the bike for India. The 6-speed gearbox gives smooth shifts and the clutch is well weighed with the lever providing amazing feel. It does excel when it comes to mileage and returns more than 30 km/l, resulting in a 500 km plus range on a single tank. The ride quality is good and easily absorb bumps on road. Plastic quality is average and rear view mirrors give decent viewing angle. It shares the same instrument cluster used by Ninja 300, but has a couple of changes to it. The seats are on the harder side but still offer a lot of comfort. In comparison to rider seat, pillion seat is quite inappropriate. I rode with two different passengers and they commented that the seat was too uncomfortable and stiff for a long riding. It has impressive handling and corners with good precision.

Best Features: Easy handling

Pros: Lightweight, easy handling, attractive looks, smooth gearing, huge tank capacity

Cons: Uncomfortable for long rides, expensive, No ABS

Kawasaki is known for its build quality and performance driven aesthetics. If this street machine comes to India, it is easily going to be the best in 300 cc segment street bike!
