  1. Ninja 300 General Discussion
    I have a 2017 300 with about 1900 miles on it and I’m wondering what it’s supposed to sound like from 8k up? It sounds fine at any rpm below 8k but once it hits that it sounds like it’s going to explode. Almost like it’s being pinned but it isn’t. Thought something might be vibrating and making...
  2. Ninja 300 Issues and Troubleshooting
    Hello and merry Christmas everyone. About two months ago or so my 2015 Ninja 300 which has about 14K miles on the odometer started ticking like a time-bomb after it warms up a little bit. It occurs when idling and under very light load but seems to go away once you get moving and put load on...
  3. Ninja 300 General Discussion
    I just got my tires replaced at a shop and a day later, my bike started making a noise like a washer or dryer spinning. I can't tell where the sound is exactly coming from, but sounds like it's coming from around the front sprocket/engine area. The weird part is it only happens when the bike is...
  4. Ninja 300 Issues and Troubleshooting
    Hi there guys, I have been following this forum for a long time now, but never had the need to really post anything. I have found the forum extremely useful, so thank you all. A couple weeks back, my ninja started making a weird noise when running. This noise has increased over time. I though...
  5. Ninja 300 Issues and Troubleshooting
    Hey guys! I just got a Ninja 300 recently and I've already broken it in and had its first service done to it. But I saw the chain was dirty so I cleaned it with kerosene and lubed it up again and wiping the excess. But now usually under load at around 50km/h there is a noise which comes from...
  6. Ninja 300 Issues and Troubleshooting
    Hey guys, I recently got into an accident 2 weeks ago (rear ended a truck). Following day, it turns on fine as I rolled it into the van to take home. It hasn't started since Tuesday which was roughly 2 weeks ago. Today, I tried starting and it makes noises but It wouldnt actually turn on. I look...
  7. Ninja 300 Issues and Troubleshooting
    Hello all! First post here. In 2nd and 3rd gear between 8k-10k rpms, I start to hear a faint squeaking/squealing coming from the front end. As best as I can tell it sounds like its coming from the tachometer. Had similar sounds come from the tach/speedo on some of the vintage Hondas I've...
  8. Ninja 300 Issues and Troubleshooting
    My bike recently started to make a sound very similar to this.. I've only got 1500 km's on the bike, the chain is nicely lubed and waxed, I've brought it to two separate Kawi dealers and they both have said the chain is within specs on how tight or loose it should be so that is out of the...
  9. Ninja 300 Issues and Troubleshooting
    I just noticed a hissing noise when I use the throttle. It's quite noticeable when I'm on the 3rd gear and above, it might still be there when on lower gears, but I might not be hearing it with my gear and the wind. Has anyone else had this issue? Did anyone find the problem? I just reached my...
  10. Ninja 300 Issues and Troubleshooting
    Ive noticed that my bike has been squeaking lately! I cant stand it any longer. I heard it the first time this week and dont know what the problem is. I was thinking maybe it was the chain that needs to be lubed again but im not entirely sure that is it. I thought it was the brakes, but I sat...
