Hey bro I have the same bike...where did u get your frame sliders from?

Im saving for this bike for my first bike this really gives me and insight to the flaws o n the bike thank you man

I'm enjoying mine. I've been test riding bikes at GoAz on Hayden and Frank Lloyd Wright like the Z800, Ninja 1000, Street Triple etc and the huge difference in power kinda gets me down sometimes, really only on the highway when I'm going 70-80 and roll into the throttle and it doesnt really do much. But it is very comfortable and easy to ride, and the clutch is leaps ahead of all other clutches. Im at 6000 miles now and just ordered a set of Pirelli Diablo Rosso 2s. 150/60/17 in the rear and stock up front to take advantage of the handling of the bike since that's where it shines. I've been working 60s lately but still hoping to get a ride in with you

Have to agree about the turn signals. Considered getting a tinted windscreen so they might be more visible when they are on. Brakes too. Really wish it had much better brakes, not sure if the ABS would help being able to pull on the brakes hard and it stopping with out the back tire screaming back at me as its on the edge of locking up but making some noise. I don't know if I missed it, BUT I would have added Gear Indicator to the list. I get into 6th gear and once I get to 55-60 mph I'm pulling up for another gear. People wanting to race. I'm like, "UM, its only a 300". Otherwise, its my commuter bike, I get 70+ mpg, save a ton on gas and like that it looks more badass than the engine size is.

+Gabriel Garcia Three reason I got the bigger windshield. First, I ride year round so winters can get pretty chilly. Keeps the wind off the chest and me a little warmer. Second, I ride in the rain. The stock windshield has some funny dynamics then send the rain straight to my crotch. Not good if I have somewhere to be. This bigger windshield stops that from happening. Third, I spend a lot of time on the freeway every day and do some long trips from time to time. The bigger windshield removes a lot of buffeting and reduces fatigue. It certainly doesn't look the best, but it might be the best mod I've made to this bike yet. The exhaust does sound awesome. Thanks man.

Its not that hard to ride 2 up, given a few people a ride after 6 months of experience and only thing is they tend to like to push unevenly on the foot pegs so the bike feels wobbly at low speeds and cornering but otherwise treat it more like a car with your maneuverability and youll be fine

tight leg position is a consequence of all the manufacturers trying to get a really low seat height for beginners. I'm 6'1" with disproportionately long legs and had a CBR250r, so I understand.

Nice Dude, congratulations!

Think of it this way, you can ride the Ninja 300 any place you can ride the 1000cc bikes. Maybe not as fast, but you shan't be worn out when you get there (although any long distance bike needs a proper seat).

+D. Paul Riderman True true. I have done a few long trips, 9 hours one day and another three day trip, and I haven't had any problems but I better seat certainly wouldn't hurt.

Saddlemen makes seats for most sport bikes, and it has gel packs next to the medal form. Although the seat isn't especially comfortable when you begin to ride (multi-layered dense foam above the gel packs), it does keep your bum from losing it's feeling. It also eliminates the jars common to riding on back roads.

Thanks man. Same to you.

I own the Ninja 300 and I disagree with the brakes. They are not bad but they are not great at the same time, they get the job done and ABS is not needed. Knowing how to control brakes without ABS I think would make a better rider.

what do u think about other 300s

Mmh, not directly, but here a couple links. kzread.info/dash/bejne/oXZko7CjZpatmag.html and kzread.info/dash/bejne/dnyg1ZWtj8y4c9Y.html I think these will be a good place to start.

"Two years experience" really doesn't mean anything. It's miles and breadth of situations you encountered. You can have more experience after one year, riding through the winter months and seeking out new roads all the time, than someone who's been riding to the ice cream place and back every Sunday in May-August for the last 25 years.

Hmm, does 24k miles in just over a year of daily commuting and occasional touring count?
