Is the Ninja 300 good enough for the highway? Probably also applies to 250s

Here's my experience. I had a 2001 Ninja 250. I ran that son of a bitch on highways 70% of the time going 70-75mph, and the engine didn't sweat it one bit despite the high rpm's. Not only did it see high rpm's all the time, I definitely made it work as hard as it could. Full throttle, low leans, the whole nine yards. Of course I made sure to keep up with maintenance, but let me tell you something~ specially to those out there looking to get their first bike. If the old 250's were that tough, I can promise you today's 300's will teach you everything just fine; local riding, highway riding, anything. Even wheelies, lol. EDIT: Don't listen to anyone that downplays these small bikes. They do everything a motorcycle does, because it's still a motorcycle. You can bust your ass real bad on these small bike just as much like a big one.

Same can be said for the small 4cyl pickups that everyone mocks, instead insisting on half tons the size of a house. I have a 2001 Frontier 2wd 5 speed 4cyl that does 95 percent of what you need a pickup for. It also fits almost anywhere and averages 26mpg. Shit, it still averages well over 20mpg when towing a small tandem axle trailer loaded up. Yeah its slow as shit but it still gets it done and i know plenty of people with larger trucks should ai need one.

I started with an R3 and it did fine with highway. I would cruise 65-70mph. Overtaking was tough at times because the passing power was weak. At that situation you need to downshift once or twice to get around some cars. The wind is also another battle. Light bikes are amazing, but the wind will knock you off course sometimes.

Rence Fabian I can attest to this. Trying to race home before an incoming thunderstorm and the accompanying strong winds in West Texas my ninja was at an angle most of the highway ride home. Has to let off the throttle at some moments because I couldn't stay on track as I was already countersteering just to stay in a straight line.

let me get uh Different landscapes, traffic laws, roads, etc. I don't think it's really applicable. In the states starting on a 125cc to daily is like asking to get hit, not enough power to really get yourself out of a bad situation here. The roads are more open, and people usually drive ~10-15mph over the speed limit. Don't even get me started on highways. Taking a small bike to a canyon or something is pretty fun though, smaller bikes are usually easier to handle and you can just rip the throttle without having to worry about flying off the road at over 100mph in a split second. You guys in Europe got it good with twisties nearly everywhere. I'm almost jealous, honestly. However, the more responsible dealerships here in the states refuse to sell people anything bigger than 300-400 if it's their first bike, maybe a 650 since they're more tame. At least that's been my experience.

They are still about as fast a Porsche Boxter, of course you can take it on the highways and tollways! Plenty of passing power and likely faster than most cars around. Wind can be an issue and of course you should be wearing gear, but a 250 or 300 is plenty good for highway/tollway driving. You will be shifting a lot more than a bigger bike, only thing.

Wind shear isnt something you can prepare for though. Depending on who and what is immediately nearby -a bike that light is a lot riskier than a heavier bike. Guess it pays to know the wind forecast and prevailing direction where you’re riding and heading. Bet that bike is fun for stunting around on empty roads.

i have a ninja 300, it’s great bike, but i get blown around by the wind even being 185 pounds, and even around town it can be bad. I’m looking for ways to increase stability because it’s not in my budget to go to a 650 class yet, i may buy a different 300 simply because i want ABS on my bike even tho ppl hate on it. I think a bigger tire and aftermarket windscreen might do the trick with the stability, but that’s my only complaint, it’s got enough power to have fun. But yes it does lack a bit on the highway. I live in florida and try to avoid the highway because it can be harsh. Not to say it’s impossible but the wind is god awful sometimes where i get blown into another lane. I’ve topped out my bike at about 115, it takes a bit to get there but 115mph is enough to pass someone on the highway so it’s capable but not the sturdiest of bikes.

that is a comuter bike for around town, i had one for my starting bike and to let friends ride along me , nothing wrong with those 300cc 8n my book i dont ride faster than 100 mph because at that point im killing my self if i crash , so 100% of the time i get to 100mph and i let go thats plenty for mee , i onow friends that need to have a bike that can go 200mph plus but to each their own , if that rocks your boats , then you do you by all means nessesary.

@QwahziIRL
@QwahziIRL 6 жыл бұрын
Nathan Davidov $70/year for liability, $150/year for my brother for comprehensive. Your best bet is to get a free insurance quote online though. Winter driving probably depends on your location. San Antonio has no snow and doesn't get insanely cold, so riding during the winter is usually fine (on any bike)

i ride ninja 300 from sydney to canberra everyweek on highway(530kms approximately). the issue is ninja 300 is too light to deal with windy and high rpm( 8000~9000) at 110kms which cause vibration a lot, after 30mins ride, body ,hands are numb, legs are numb

My dream Kawasaki is a supercharged triple-cylinder 445cc engine (the current engine is 297cc, so adding one more 148cc cylinder brings it up to 445cc, then beef up the crank & rods & clutch & transmission) putting out a modest 60hp at the rear wheel with 50 ft-lbs of wideband torque, Ohlins front & rear, Brembo's front & rear, 5-gallon fuel tank, and a total wet weight of 360-lbs... A new Ninja 300 KRE ABS is about $5,300... I'd pay $9000 for a Ninja 445 SC KRE ABS (Ninja ZX-4R)...
