Rider Profile

Best ForThis is an ideal machine for beginners and newer riders thanks to its light weight, manageable power, and forgiving nature.
PurposeBuilt primarily as an approachable entry-level sportbike for learning to ride fast and enjoying twisty roads without overwhelming power.
Rider FitIts low seat height and light 174 kg weight make it easy for shorter or less physically strong riders to handle confidently.
CharacterA playful, revvy little twin that rewards spinning it up through the gears rather than relying on outright torque.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the right choice for experienced riders craving serious highway power or for anyone wanting a long-distance touring companion.

2014 Kawasaki Ninja 300 ABS Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 785mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2014 Kawasaki Ninja 300 ABS, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
