Now, the Lime Green shade resembles the Ninja 400 and the Ninja ZX-10R quite a bit. On the other hand, the Grey colour is rather stylish and modern for a Kawasaki motorcycle. In addition, the bikemaker&nbsp;claims&nbsp;that both riding dynamics, as well as performance of the new edition,&nbsp;have been significantly enhanced. The most important upgrade, however, is that the bike now complies with the most recent OBD guidelines. The bookings for the Ninja 300 have already started in India, with deliveries slated to begin around mid-June onwards. Let's have a closer look at the&nbsp;features, hardware, and mechanical details&nbsp;of the newly-launched model.&nbsp;</p>
