Hi Archer, It depends on what you are expecting from your new bike. I, myself has booked Ninja 300 this month, waiting for my bike. As far as I searched, asked and learnt, main cons in this bike are Higher service cost, Old Instrument Cluster, Less Technological features, Wobbling at 50-60 Kmph speeds due to MRF tyres at front, 4.5-5 k rpm there is a slight buzz.

If you need a bike for highway touring and cruising as well as looks of Sport bike, with incredible refinement, then Ninja 300 is your bike.

As far as low ground clearance is considered you can manage by slowing down much and avoiding speed breakers / crossing diagonally (though irritating), another alternative for GC is one person has raised the link between frame and suspension thereby increasing the GC. Most of the new buyers change the MRF to avoid the wobbling issue. Starter relay problem is not in BS6 bikes as far as I know, even if it exists it costs around 2-3k. Never come across the throttle body, shock absorber, fuel pump issue AFAIK.

When compared to the faired bikes in the segment RR310, RC390, the refinement, reliability, power delivery and seating posture for touring that Ninja 300 offers are great. I test drove all 3, I selected Ninja even though costs more for buying as well as maintaining due to its riding pleasure.
