Introduction
Kawasaki is a well-known brand name among people, particularly among the elder generation who grew up on Kawasaki-Bajaj motorcycles. From that time until the present, the Japanese two-wheeler company has become significantly larger and more premium in India. The brand focused on localised production of its bikes and launched Ninja 300 in 2018 which was a heavily localised bike. Since then the bike has gone through various updates and ruling the hearts of Indian young bikers. To know more about its features and specifications, let’s discuss them in detail.
Kawasaki Ninja 300 Design and Style
Talking about the appearance, the company has launched the New Kawasaki Ninja 300 in three different shades. Halogen headlamps, an LED taillight, a semi-digital instrument console and designer black-out wheels make its look all the more spectacular. At the same time, it has a fuel tank of 17 litres and weighs about 179 kg. This will make it much easier to travel long distances.

Which is Better option Royal Enfield Classic 500 or Kawasaki Ninja 300 for daily commute?
08 September 2023 08:25Choosing between the Royal Enfield Classic 500 and the Kawasaki Ninja 300 for your daily commute depends on what you need. The Classic 500 is comfy with a retro style and low maintenance, great for city riding, but it may feel underpowered on highways.

User Reviews for Kawasaki Ninja
Plenty of features to make a comfortable and enjoyable ride
The Ninja is a great bike for those of us with bigger frames, but it's not just about that. The comfortable seat, the well-designed tank, the slightly raised bars, and the sculpted seat all combine to create a riding experience that is comfortable and enjoyable. The adjustable front levers give you the ability to customize the bike to your own preferences, and even with my 6 foot 4 frame I had no problems with the legroom.
The Ninja is also incredibly responsive, with the rear brake lever feeling natural and well thought out. The clutch and brake levers were also very easy to operate and the position of them was comfortable.
The Z125 is a great option for those who are taller than 6 foot 1. It's perfect for city riding and the low seat height gives plenty of leg room. It's also comfortable to ride and it's very responsive.
Overall, the Kawasaki Ninja125 is a great bike, with plenty of features to make them comfortable and enjoyable to ride. Whether you're tall or short, the Ninja 125 has something to offer.
The power delivery was smooth and progressive
The Kawasaki Ninja 125 has an impressive power delivery, especially from a standstill. The light clutch lever makes it much easier to manage, and the gears shift into place easily. Despite changing gears often, I never felt fatigued, and I was even able to get a few clutchless upshifts. At higher speeds and revs, there was a noticeable buzz in the mirrors, but it wasn't uncomfortable or overly intrusive. All in all, the power delivery was smooth and progressive, allowing for a comfortable ride even after a long day.
An impressive figure considering the power and performance of the bike
The ARAI certified mileage of the Kawasaki Ninja 125 is 48 kmpl. This is an impressive figure considering the power and performance of the bike. It is also an admirable figure for a bike with such a small capacity engine. The user reported mileage of the Ninja 125 is not available, however, the reviews from Ninja 125 owners suggest that it is quite fuel-efficient. The Ninja 125 is a great option for those who are looking for a powerful bike that is also fuel-efficient. The Kawasaki Ninja 125 comes with a front brake type of disc and a front brake size of 290 mm. It also has a rear brake type of disc, with a rear brake size of 220 mm. The calliper type is a radial caliper and a floating caliper, giving the bike superior braking power. The front tyre size is 100/80 x 17, and the rear tyre size is 130/70 x 17, both of which are tubeless. The bike also has radial tyres, giving it better grip and control. The wheels are alloy, with a front wheel size of 17 inch, and a rear wheel size of 17 inch. The front suspension is a 37 mm telescopic forks, and the rear suspension is a mono-shock, giving the bike better handling.
Fuel tank capacity, not enough to get you to your destination and back with some to spare
The Kawasaki Ninja 125 comes with an 11-litre fuel tank capacity, which is enough to get you to your destination and back with some to spare. The fuel efficiency range is also quite good, with an ARAI-measured mileage of 48 kmpl and an even better top speed of 120 km/h. The acceleration is also quite good, with 0-60 kmph in just 6 seconds and 0-100 kmph in 10 seconds.
The Kawasaki Ninja 125 is a bike that can switc
The Kawasaki Ninja 125 is a bike that can switch between two identities with ease. On one hand, it can be used as a reliable everyday commuter, offering dependable and consistent performance. On the other hand, when ridden aggressively, the Ninja can truly come alive and transform into a beast. Unfortunately, I am not yet skilled enough to take full advantage of the Ninja's full potential, but I can definitely attest to its reliability as a commuter. The Ninja 125 is not meant to be someone's first bike, as it is better suited to those with more experience and a bigger budget. But for those who are willing to take the plunge, the Ninja 125 can be a thrilling and rewarding experience.
