So glad to have found a forum dedicated to the new love of my life. Am new to motorcycling and have gone with a special edition Ninja 300 with ABS as my first bike. Currently on order and arriving February...can't wait.
Thanks so much for the feedback guys, really appreciated! Just curious, has anyone here rode scooters before ? I have been riding scooters for a while now and I have and never rode a geared bike before. I am kinda concerned transitioning from scooter to geared bikes as the left lever is used for rear break on scooter and clutch for geared bikes. I will of course go through my training with Q-ride. Has anyone experienced my concerns?

Just do the Q-Ride and it will change the way your brain is programmed I suppose. Hopefully you drive a manual car... would be helpful. I used to ride a scooter before when I was young 13yo - advantage would be you'll be comfortable on the road/hazards and just being on a bike.
Getting mine from Crazy Dogs at Burpengary. Special Edition ABS rideaway 6899. Teammoto at Bowen Hills quoted around 8500 rideaway. It pays to shop around.
Thanx Hydrox love your feedback!!! Seemed like the price does vary on the ninjas 300 huh ? I guess I will need to get my friend to shadow me from Burpangary back to Brisbane south

yeah shadow(convoy)... especially if youre not that confident. Helped in my case. right wheel track if on the left lane if there's a vehicle in front of you - helps you be more visible in a multi lane traffic. PM me if this is new lingo for you so I can clarify it. they'll teach it in q-ride.
about crazydogs - talk to Rebecca she's really nice and professional. will give you more than 10% off the retail of the leather jackets etc. almost same price in the US and you get the exact fit for you.
seems to vary quite a bit, the bike retail was $6399 and $900 for on roads. I paid cash too so I thought I was getting a good deal. Could not see the point spending an extra $500 on abs.
