Original Article: The wait is over! Kawasaki is all-set to launch the heavily localized version of Ninja 300 in India on Friday (July 20). The brand recently posted an image of a Blue Ninja 300 on their Facebook page with a caption: "All Set For A Fresh New Start! Releasing on this Friday!" The Made-in-India Ninja 300 is expected to be priced around INR 2.35-2.50 lakh (Ex-showroom India). The motorcycle will feature ABS as government has made it mandatory for bikes above 125cc to bring this safety feature as standard. [caption id="attachment_240123" align="aligncenter" width="1080"] Image Source: Kawasaki India (Facebook Page)[/caption] There are high chances that Kawasaki might also equip the Ninja 300 with LED headlights and updated instrument console. It is being rumored that Minda Corporation is helping Kawasaki by providing majority of parts for local production while tyres are said to be sourced from MRF for cost effective pricing. The Made-in-India model is expected to be available in 2 colors: Candy Lime Green & Plasma Blue.

The basic purpose of launching this impressively priced model is to capture more market share than KTM sport bikes like RC 390 and Duke 390, and the recently launched 300cc BMW bikes, the G310R & G310GS. If the ex-showroom price comes out to be under INR 2.50 lakh, Kawasaki will undercut the existing Yamaha R3 by a huge margin and even the single cylinder RC 390 by INR 5,000. Ninja 300 is a powerful twin-cylinder motorcycle with 296cc engine producing 38.5 BHP and 27 Nm. The engine is mated to a 6-speed gearbox and the bike is also equipped with a slipper clutch.

The Classic 500 is comfy with a retro style and low maintenance, great for city riding, but it may feel underpowered on highways.
