What goes wrong

NHTSA recall 13V328000 (verified) covers 2013 Ninja 300 and 300 ABS built between July 2012 and April 2013 for an electrical system fault. Otherwise the platform is well regarded as a first bike.

42 owner complaints , most-reported: ENGINE (21) · POWER TRAIN (13) · ELECTRICAL SYSTEM (3) · 1 recall listed.

What to do about it

Before you hand over cash: Verify recall completion by VIN at nhtsa.gov. If done, this is a non-issue.

On any used motorcycle, check the tire DOT date codes, ask for the valve service receipt, and look for drop damage on both sides before you talk about price.
