Hardware-wise, the Ninja 300 uses a tubular diamond-type frame with telescopic forks up front and a monoshock at the rear. Stopping power comes from a 290mm petal disc at the front and a 220mm petal disc at the rear with dual-channel ABS as standard.
The motorcycle rides on a pair of 17-inch split-spoke alloy wheels fitted with tubeless tyres. It also has a heat management system for improved performance, and the Japanese manufacturer claims that the bike's exhaust has been optimised to deliver good performance and minimal noise.
