The Ninja 300 continues to be powered by a 296cc, parallel-twin liquid-cooled engine with peak output figures of 39hp at 11,000rpm and 26.1Nm at 10,000rpm. This engine is paired to a 6-speed transmission and gets a slipper clutch as standard. 

The chassis and hardware elements remain identical as well, with a tubular steel frame suspended on a conventional telescopic fork and a pre-load adjustable monoshock. The Ninja 300 features a 110/70 R17 section tyre at the front and 140/70 R17 section at the rear. Handling braking duties is a 290mm single disc up front and a 220mm disc at the rear.
