    They're down due to part localization. This has just been discussed earlier in this page with the same picture. Please check.

      This is correct and applies only to MY19 bikes and beyond as per my conversation with Anzen Kawasaki.
      It surely makes a better proposition for a stellar bike.

        All the Ninja 300 motorcycles are the same... How can one part fit 2019 make models and not fit the earlier years models.

          I have absolutely no idea about it since I am actually looking for upgrading to Neenjaaa myself.
          It has been a dream since Ninja 250R and I'm seriously thinking about adding some power to the need.

            Few things to note,
            They are just indicating the price reduction. But one has to also note the change in vendor and parts, they completely different on the locally built model compared to CKD.

            1) New tyres are from MRF(₹4k R,₹2.5K F), older one were IRC(₹17K R,₹10K L)
            2) Bake calipers, pads are from Endurance(Pads cost ₹800 for each), older one had Nissin module( not sure?) and costed about ₹3k for each pads.
            3) Wheel assembly is also source form Endurance, not sure the brand of old CKD international model had. Down from ₹50K to approx ₹5-7K
            4) Indicators and all other plastic fairing parts will be form either of one of these reputed Indian vendors Minda/Lumax/Radiant/Varroc etc etc, again not sure on the old ones.

            So using it on older 300 is like actually downgrading the stock bike parts, also any difference in mounting points on new vs old? Owners can confirm.

              Yes, the vendors will change and the parts quality will go down. I mean, people cribbed about spares being costly and asked for it. No company wants to run business without any margin for profit.
              MRF's can be the worst tyre one can use on a 300cc motorcycle. I've had nightmares on my R3 while i used these MRF's.

              • Replacement Windscreen

                Friends,

                I have recently bought a 2019 Kawasaki Ninja 300 ABS in Candy Plasma Blue.

                I am looking for a taller replacement windscreen, for example, like the Zero Gravity Sport Touring windscreen.

                    Hello.. I was planning to buy a Ninja 300 in May-June... I just wanted to ask here anybody have any info on Ninja 300 getting discontinued in 2020 due to emission norms? It will cause spare issues right? Is Kawasaki still servicing and providing spares for Ninja 250R in their service centres? 250 owners please reply.. Is it wise to go for Ninja 300 now in 2019, especially knowing it will get discontinued?

                      Does anyone have any info on the Ninja 300 discontinuing in 2020 due to emission norms? I am about to buy Ninja 300 or Apache RR310 in about 2 months time.. Is it wise to buy Ninja 300 now in 2019? Will Kawasaki provide me service and spares for the next 3 years at least if I buy it now in 2019? And about Ninja 300 spares price reduction, has anybody checked with Kawasaki Bangalore?

                          First, the engine does duty on versys 300 as well. So its safe to assume that they would be upgrading it to BS6 when its time. And spares and parts arent tough to get since its an international model and you dont have to depend on Kawasaki for spares anyway. Spare part price reduction is pan India.
                          Ride, ride and ride.. But always do it responsibly..

                            Hi everyone,
                            I got my friend to get me a set of steel tapered steering bearings from all balls racing.
                            Any idea where i can get them fitted in Bangalore?
                            Thanks in advance

                              I have a quick question for all Neenjaa Owners - is the 300 still relevant at this time or may be in a year?
                              Reason I'm asking is I like the Domi a lot but Kawasaki is another love.
                              I can cheat on the dreams with Domi for a love affair with Neenjaaa!!
