The highest selling quarter litre bike in the world, the Kawasaki Ninja 250 has given way to its more powerful, better equipped and ridiculously good looking successor in the Ninja 300. Is it really that much better than the highly successful Ninja 250?

My first Ninja was an '03 250 and I got it in 2005. I grew up with dirt bikes on a farm, but getting married and having kids put riding in the closet for a long time. In June, I traded that 250 for the 2014 300se and I love it. It's small enough for me to control, yet big enough that it feels so much more powerful than the 250. The 250 had balls, but this one is beyond that. This will more than likely be my last bike ever. I'm a 55yo grandma now and arthritis in my back tells me how long I can ride but it's fun when I ride. I just don't dare lay it down without somebody stronger than what I now am to pick it back up. That was what shocked me most when I got the first Ninja, I wiped out on a dirt bike, I just picked it up and kept moving, lay down a ninja? I'm screwed. Ride hard or go home!

@powerdriftofficial 10 лет назад

survivrs Wow! You are truly an inspiration for all of us here. Thanks a ton for sharing your Ninja story with us. :)

@survivrs 10 лет назад

PowerDrift Thanks! I can't wait for Spring to come but I'm hoping to still get a day or two in before winter. It's been a strange year with our Iowa weather. I wish everyone could have as much fun on a bike as I have had in my life.

@abhishekagarwal589 4 года назад

Lucky you man, awesome🤟🔥. I still dream about my first normal bike at the age of 25.

@survivrs 4 года назад

@@abhishekagarwal589 Thanks man, I had to beg my dad from the time I was 7 for a motorcycle and he wasn't going to let his little girl ride a motorcycle. I never backed off, and finally when I was 10 he got me a minibike. I wish it had an odometer on it because I know I put more than a couple thousand miles on it. He had to replace small parts over time, and finally it was going to be the engine and he finally gave in and got me a little yellow Yamaha 100 Enduro. I rode that even more because it had a lot more balls than the minibike. Some of the things he saw me do, he told me one night as he was coming in from the field and I was calling it a night, he said to me "Don't you ever let your mother see you doing any of that or she'll kill me". He was sort of serious but I just smiled. I learned on that bike with a great hill what it meant to become airborne. I was such a tomboy, lol....still am, but my body is paying the price for everything I did growing up.

I fell in love with this bike after watching your review. I am from a lower middle-class background. I worked my ass off and ended up buying 2017 KRT version of Ninja 300. Drove 5000kms in 2 months and I just can't get enough of this bike.

@powerdriftofficial 11 лет назад

Indian road rules demands a protective covering which is called a "Saree" guard. This is designed to stop a "saree" which is a traditional Indian apparel from being tugged by the chain/rear wheel. That cage is also the FIRST thing that most motorists remove after getting the bike :)

@Ajf_24 8 лет назад

They are kinda two very different machines to be compared! But yes, as an affordable dose of POWER, it would probably make it an interesting competitor :)

@powerdriftofficial 11 лет назад

The motorcycling scene in India is very different than in the west. We go from mopeds to 100ccs to dreams of quarter litre and a very few get to go beyond it. But that is fast changing :)

@powerdriftofficial 11 лет назад

Thanks, and thanks for the feedback! To be honest, we are fellow motor heads like you and so at times tend to go a little over the board with bikes (and cars) that excite us!

I occasionally watch videos on this channel but gotta admit that this channel puts some of the bests reviews out there. No bias and over or less highlights. Everything's upto the mark. Excellent execution and presentation. I can say same same thing about Autocar India but the host feels little older and lazy to review powerful bikes which is almost perfect with you guys. Awesome work. Keep it up. Will be visiting this channel.

@babycookie1719 9 лет назад

Great review Team Powerdrift!! I was confused between Ninja 300 and Duke 390....which to buy!!! After watching both the reviews a couple of times, was still a bit confused. But after what Sagar said towards the end that he enjoyed riding the bike so much that he wanted to give the verdict while riding the Ninja 300.....well that cleared everything for me. Have owned Ninja 300 for over a year now and I'm quiet satisfied with my decision. Thanks for leading me to her ;-)

@kavinsp 6 лет назад

Pradhyumna Gupta it's a government regulation you know, even a superbike like the ZX10R had issues with a saree guard (they started selling it as a single seater nowadays and they sell the pillion footpegs and rear seat as optional to avoid putting in a saree guard)

@kavinsp 6 лет назад

Its a saree guard, basically a guard that stops the Indian outfits (usually a saree or a loooong scarf - dupatta) from being pulled in by the rear wheel. Its a rule for two wheelers to have this to be road legal. And its also the first piece of equipment that enthusiasts remove :P
