presentation of the Z 300 Performance 2016

For every Z, a Performance Pack is never far away. Since the ZX-10R inaugurated this appellation in 2010, many Kawasaki machines have used this additive to beef up their added value. From the ZZR 1400 to the Z 1000, there's a fine collection of special series in this vein. The Z 300 joins the clan, asserting its membership of a somewhat vindictive spirit.

based on the chassis and engine of the Ninja 300 R, the Z 300 Performance has a real Z look. Kawa emphasizes the sporty side with a matching seat cover and, above all, an Akrapovic exhaust system. The Slovenian exhaust gains 2.8 kilos and a more virile sound. To complete the package, a semi-transparent gel tank protector protects the steel belly from scratches.
Let's go back under the skin to remind ourselves that the Z 300 uses the Ninja's parallel-twin engine, unchanged. With its 296 cm3, double-throttle injection, 8 valves and dual ACT, the boiler spits out 39 hp at 11,000 rpm, and 2.8 mkg a little lower. It weighs in at 170 kilos, but relies heavily on its plasticity to appeal to A2 license holders.
