Overall, the new Candy Lime Green colour for Ninja 300 presents a high-performance and stylish appearance, a hallmark of the Kawasaki Ninja series.
Second colour option of Metallic Moondust Gray utilizes a combination of red, black and gray. The red and gray graphics create attractive visuals, especially when seen against the black main body. The dual-tone stripes running along the sides help achieve an aggressive, high-performance look. The blacked-out alloy wheels get red rim decals, something that further enhances the bike’s dynamic appearance. The ‘Ninja’ logo and ‘Kawasaki’ badging are done in gray and white, respectively.
