Pre REVIEW: Kawasaki Ninja 300 (Coming to Malaysia)


     So, its August already. Last month was my busy month and but this month, I'm hopping its gonna be my relaxing month. I'm planning to back riding my bike with friends. Hopefully its not a busy month. But now my first post for August is about Kawasaki Ninja that has been arrived to Malaysian market.



             The Kawasaki Ninja 300, a sport bike made by Kawasaki, is a new generation entry-level (beginner) bike. Kawasaki dominated the lightweight market for decades with the Ninja 250, and now after feeling pressure from main competitor Honda CBR 250, Kawasaki raised the bar by upgrading the entry-level Ninja with a 296 cc, liquid-cooled and EFI two-cylinder engine— that’s 47 cc more displacement (adding just 6 percent more weight) and 50 percent more power than the Honda. Kawasaki claimed this 2013 bike will deliver better fuel economy and more performance.


           The Kawasaki Ninja 300 will be one of the first beginner bikes to offer ABS brakes (at a RM 26,000.00 ++), a feature that according to Consumer Reports has a great life-saving potential. Overall, experts in the field as well as non-professional reviewers agree that the new Ninja 300 is a great entry-level bike.
