I WAS COMING UP TO MY NEIGHBORHOOD GATE AND I PULLED MY CLUTCH IN AND STARTED BRAKING TO STOP SO THE GATE CAN OPEN, THE ENGINE THEN STALLED FOR NO REASON. I WAS IN 1ST GEAR AT THE TIME THIS HAPPENED AND I HAVE MY IDLE SET TO ABOUT 1800 RPMS WHICH IS A LITTLE HIGH SO THERE SHOULD BE NO REASON WHY THIS BIKE STALLED BY PULLING THE CLUTCH IN AND BRAKING. I HAVE READ ON VARIOUS KAWASAKI NINJA 300 ONLINE FORUMS THERE HAVE BEEN MANY OTHER 2013 NINJA 300'S WITH THE SAME SIMILAR PROBLEM. *TR

I OWN A BRAND NEW STOCK NINJA 300. ON THE DAY I FIRST EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM, IT WAS PROBABLY ABOUT 80+ DEGREES OUTSIDE. I HAD ALLOW MY BIKE TO WARM UP FOR AT LEAST 5 MINUTES. TOOK THE BIKE OUT AND WENT DOWN THE BLOCK. I WAS PROBABLY IN 2ND GEAR WHEN I CAME TO AN INTERSECTION WHERE I PREPARED TO STOP. I PULLED IN THE CLUTCH ALL THE WAY AND APPLIED THE BRAKES. UPON PULLING IN THE CLUTCH, THE ENGINE SHUT OFF. I DIDN'T EVEN REALIZE IT WAS OFF UNTIL I WENT TO TRY AND PULL OFF AGAIN AND REALIZED MY BIKE WASN'T EVEN RUNNING! THIS HAPPENED 2 MORE TI…

CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP, RESTARTED ENGINE AND RESUMED MY TRAVEL. STOPPED AT MY LOCAL BANK, PULLED OUT OF THE DRIVE OF BANK ON TO HIGHWAY, TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 5 MILES PER HOUR, DEPRESSED CLUTCH TO SHIFT INTO SECOND GEAR, RPM FELL TO ZERO AND ENGINE DIED, BACKING UP TRAFFIC AND PUTTING ME INTO HARMS WAY. PUSHED BIKE TO SIDE OF ROAD AND RESTARTED. THE SAME SITUATION HAPPENED (4) MORE…
I WAS APPROACHING A STOP SIGN IN SECOND GEAR. I APPLIED A NORMAL AMOUNT OF BRAKE PRESSURE TO BOTH THE FRONT AND REAR BRAKES AS I PULLED THE CLUTCH LEVER IN. AS SOON AS THE CLUTCH WAS DISENGAGED AND THE ENGINE RPM'S SLOWED THE BIKE'S ENGINE STALLED. I WAS NOT GOING SLOW ENOUGH FOR THE ENGINE TO BE STALLED BY THE TRANSMISSION, IT WAS STILL AT LEAST 6000 RPM WHEN I APPLIED THE CLUTCH. *TR

THE FIRST TIME THIS BIKE STALLED ON ME WAS AROUND 400 MILES. I WARMED THE BIKE UP FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES THEN PULLED OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY. GOT DOWN THE STREET ABOUT 2 BLOCKS AND LET OFF THE THROTTLE TO ALLOW THE ENGINE TO BRAKE ITSELF AND AROUND 15 MPH I CLUTCHED IN AND APPLIED BOTH BRAKES. THEN I NOTICED THE BIKE WAS ROLLING WITHOUT ANY ENGINE POWER SO I LOOKED DOWN AND MY POWER WAS OFF. LUCKILY THIS WAS IN A RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD SO I PULLED OVER AND DIDN'T GET RAN OVER.

I WAS RIDING MY MOTORCYCLE AND COMING TO A RED LIGHT. I HELD IN MY CLUTCH TO GET READY TO DOWNSHIFT, BEFORE I COULD EVEN START DOWNSHIFTING, THE ENGINE STOPPED RUNNING AND I HAD TO START THE ENGINE AGAIN WHEN I WAS AT THE STOP LIGHT. *TR
HELLO, THE KAWASAKI NINJA 300 ABS BIKE STALLS WHEN SLOWING DOWN HOLDING THE CLUTCH, THE ENGINE CUTS OFF AND THE BIKE LOOSES POWER, I ALMOST GOT REAR-ENDED YESTERDAY DUE TO THIS ISSUE. LOOKS LIKE MANY KAWASAKI BIKE OWNERS ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE AND THE MANUFACTURER IS NOT DOING ANYTHING TO FIX IT. PLEASE ACT ON THIS SINCE THIS ISSUE CAN CAUSE ACCIDENTS. *TR
WHEN COMING TO A STOP, DOWNSHIFTING, OR JUST COASTING TO MAKE A TURN THE ENGINE WILL STALL AND DIE SPORADICALLY. I HAVE TO START THE MOTORCYCLE AGAIN AND HOPE TRAFFIC DOES NOT HIT ME OR CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. *TR

THE FIRST TIME THIS BIKE STALLED ON ME WAS AROUND 400 MILES. I WARMED THE BIKE UP FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES THEN PULLED OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY. GOT DOWN THE STREET ABOUT 2 BLOCKS AND LET OFF THE THROTTLE TO ALLOW THE ENGINE TO BRAKE ITSELF AND AROUND 15 MPH I CLUTCHED IN AND APPLIED BOTH BRAKES. THEN I NOTICED THE BIKE WAS ROLLING WITHOUT ANY ENGINE POWER SO I LOOKED DOWN AND MY POWER WAS OFF. LUCKILY THIS WAS IN A RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD SO I PULLED OVER AND DIDN'T GET RAN OVER. I HAD NO CLUE WHAT WAS GOING ON THINKING IT WAS JUST A ONE TIME THING AND…

THE PROBLEM I AM HAVING WITH THE KAWASAKI NINJA 300 SE IS THE STALLING ISSUE THAT MANY OTHERS HAVE REPORTED. THE ISSUE NEVER HAPPENS IN THE MORNING, IT HAPPENS AFTER I DRIVE THE BIKE THEN IT SITS OUTSIDE. THE TIME BEFORE I RIDE IT AGAIN COULD BE A HALF HOUR, OR 8 HOURS. I START UP THE BIKE AND LET IT WARM UP A COUPLE MINUTES, THEN BEGIN DRIVING. NO PROBLEMS UP TO THIS POINT. I THEN GET NEAR MY FIRST STOP SIGN OR STOP LIGHT AND EASE OFF THE THROTTLE AND PULL THE CLUTCH IN TO DOWN SHIFT. THE SECOND I PULL THE CLUTCH IN, THE RPM'S DROP AND THE BIK…
I WAS DRIVING MAKING A RIGHT TURN AND THE ENGINE STARTED MAKING A LOUD BANGING NOISE. IT MADE IT 3 TIMES AND THE ENGINE JUST CUT OFF. I ALMOST GOT INTO A ACCIDENT. ON TOP OF THAT THE RIGHT FENDER ON MY BIKE KEEPS POPPING OUT OF THE SOCKET AND JUST HANGS THERE I CALLED KAWASAKI DEALERSHIP ABOUT IT SEVERAL TIMES.. THIS IS MY FIRST BIKE.. *TR

I WAS COMING UP TO MY NEIGHBORHOOD GATE AND I PULLED MY CLUTCH IN AND STARTED BRAKING TO STOP SO THE GATE CAN OPEN, THE ENGINE THEN STALLED FOR NO REASON. I WAS IN 1ST GEAR AT THE TIME THIS HAPPENED AND I HAVE MY IDLE SET TO ABOUT 1800 RPMS WHICH IS A LITTLE HIGH SO THERE SHOULD BE NO REASON WHY THIS BIKE STALLED BY PULLING THE CLUTCH IN AND BRAKING. I HAVE READ ON VARIOUS KAWASAKI NINJA 300 ONLINE FORUMS THERE HAVE BEEN MANY OTHER 2013 NINJA 300'S WITH THE SAME SIMILAR PROBLEM. *TR
I OWN A BRAND NEW STOCK NINJA 300. ON THE DAY I FIRST EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM, IT WAS PROBABLY ABOUT 80+ DEGREES OUTSIDE. I HAD ALLOW MY BIKE TO WARM UP FOR AT LEAST 5 MINUTES. TOOK THE BIKE OUT AND WENT DOWN THE BLOCK. I WAS PROBABLY IN 2ND GEAR WHEN I CAME TO AN INTERSECTION WHERE I PREPARED TO STOP. I PULLED IN THE CLUTCH ALL THE WAY AND APPLIED THE BRAKES. UPON PULLING IN THE CLUTCH, THE ENGINE SHUT OFF. I DIDN'T EVEN REALIZE IT WAS OFF UNTIL I WENT TO TRY AND PULL OFF AGAIN AND REALIZED MY BIKE WASN'T EVEN RUNNING! THIS HAPPENED 2 MORE TI…

I HAVE FOUND THAT DURING APPROXIMATELY THE FIRST 10 MIN YOU ARE RIDING THE BIKE, IF YOU ARE ABOVE 3500 RPM AND PULL IN THE CLUTCH AND COAST FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME THE VEHICLE WILL STALL. I HAVE LEARNED TO WATCH FOR THE STALL BUT IT WILL STILL CATCH YOU OFF GUARD ON OCCASION WHEN YOU LET GO OF THE CLUTCH AND WANT TO GO AND THE BIKE LURCHES AND THROWS OFF YOUR BALANCE. ESPECIALLY IN A TURN!!! *TR
