In 2015, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Ninja 300 Special Edition motorcycle that returned with new colors, graphics, and sporty Dunlop tires, while also continuing to offer the ideal entry point for beginners riders, track-day enthusiasts, commuters, and riders of all sizes.
In other technical and performance departments, the Special Edition model featured the same specifications as the 2015 standard model, such as the digital fuel injection engine, low and tapered seats, Ninja sportbike bodywork design, new Dunlop TT900 GP tires, and updated color and graphics for 2015.
The bike featured a high-tensile frame that offered optimum rigidity, feels, and agility at both high and low speeds coupled to a beefy swingarm that contributed to the frame rigidity and achieved an optimal balance of chassis stiffness.
In the visual department, the model featured an aggressive bodywork design with a modern floating windscreen that reduced turbulence, two helmet holders located under the rear seat, and a new color scheme such as Metallic Moondust Gray with Ebony.
As for power, the 2015 Kawasaki Ninja Special Edition was powered by a 296cc four-stroke parallel twin-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 39 hp with a peak at 11,000 rpm and 27 Nm (20 lb-ft) of torque available at 10,000 rpm.
In addition, the bike was available with Genuine Kawasaki Accessories such as a color-matched seat cowl, three optional gel seats for additional comfort, a tank bag and a soft top case, a tall windscreen, and engine guards.
