The Spec'd take

Why it stands out

  • Shares its 296cc parallel-twin, dual-channel ABS and assist-and-slipper clutch with the Ninja 300, but weighs 4 kg less at 175 kg without the fairing
  • Upright bars and a relaxed seating position make it an easier daily ride than the committed crouch of the Ninja 300 or the KTM 390 Duke
  • Triple LED headlight and an LED tail light look genuinely premium next to the halogen lighting the Ninja 300 still carries
  • A high-revving, smooth-running twin is a rare thing at this price, where most naked rivals make do with a single-cylinder engine
  • Kawasaki's India dealer network already supports the closely related Ninja 300 and Versys-X 300, so parts and service familiarity carries over

Worth knowing

  • At Rs 3.24 lakh ex-showroom it costs around Rs 30,000 more than the KTM 390 Duke, its nearest naked rival, despite giving away nearly 90cc
  • The full-LCD instrument cluster has no smartphone connectivity or navigation, features some rivals offer at this price
  • At 175 kg and 40 PS, it trails lighter, more powerful single-cylinder naked rivals like the KTM 390 Duke on outright power to weight
  • Only two colours are offered, Candy Lime Green and Metallic Carbon Gray, with no further customisation
  • Kawasaki still sells the fully-faired Ninja 300 at a similar price, so choosing the naked Z300 means giving up wind protection for no saving
