Kawasaki has updated the 2019 Ninja 300 with two new colours – Metallic Moon Dust Grey and Lime Green. While the green model was always on sale, the second green option now comes with reworked graphics. As for the grey, it is an all-new hue for the 300, and it features red highlights, similar to what we’ve seen on the Kawasaki Z900. The price for 2019 Ninja 300 continues to remain unchanged at Rs 2.98 lakh (ex-showroom, India).
The Ninja 300 is now available in a total of four colours – two greens, a grey and a blue. The two new colours, however, miss out on the large Ninja logo on the fairing that the older options have. However, they do feature a neat contrasting white colour stripe.
Everything else remains unchanged. The 2019 Ninja 300 continues to run a 296cc parallel-twin engine that produces 39hp and 27Nm of torque. This motor is paired to a 6-speed transmission and gets a slipper-clutch as standard.
Almost every model in the Kawasaki line-up, other than the Ninja 300, has witnessed a price hike. One of the reasons for the hike was fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. The Ninja 300 wasn't affected by this as it is heavily localised.
