The Kawasaki Ninja H2R. The highest end track-only superbike with a speed of over 400 km/h, spectacular design and an unmatched level of engineering perfection.
The Kawasaki Ninja H2R is incomparable to any other superbikes that would leave one speechless. This is not any ordinary motorcycle but a beast, which is made to be fast. The Ninja H2R is the reason it is known as the king of the track with a design that is more of the future and performance numbers that are beyond imagination.
A Machine Born for Legends
The Ninja H2R was introduced by Kawasaki as a part of its mission statement to design the most powerful production motor bike of all time. This superbike was made with one objective only and that is to race and this is what it does, integrating the formulas of racing, the aerodynamic aspect of aerospace science, and pure attitude. Each line, line, every bolt cries strength and accuracy.
Where other bikes yearn to reach 300 km/h, the H2R has the ability to pass 400km/h with ease thus turning into a monster that hardly anyone who rides can actually tame.
Power That Blows Minds
The ninja h2r is powered by a supercharged 998cc engine which produces insane power of 310 horsepower and 326 HP with ram air.
In other words, this is a machine that is more powerful than certain small cars!
The H2R is powered by the custom-built Kawasaki supercharger which makes the car have a thunderous acceleration. It takes only 2.5 seconds to accelerate the bike to 0 to 100 km/h, literally nailing you to the seat like a rocket. Each switch of the throttle is like opening a can of thunder.
Design That Turns Heads
The Ninja H2R does not only perform, it also looks lethal. The carbon fiber bodywork is sharp and futuristic, providing the bodywork with strength without creating weight. It has a mirror-coated matte finish which reflects variously in all the hues of light, and aerodynamic wings on the sides hold it to the track.
There is a purpose behind everything in this design like the pointed front cowl or the fins which generate a down force when running at high speed. It is not an ordinary bike but a declaration of speed.
Handling and Control
To ride such a powerful bike, a person should be able to control it, and Kawasaki ensured it. The high tension steel trellis frame provides the ideal strength and flexibility.
The Öhlins rear and the KYB front forks allow one to corner with ease and confidence even at maniacal speeds. Then add Brembo brakes with the smart ABS of Kawasaki and you have the safety to match with the speed.
Magic like Technology.
To ensure the riders can actually work with this power Kawasaki loaded the H2R with the next-level electronics:
- KTRC (Traction Control) helps to keep you stable on all curves.
- KLCM (Launch Control) assists you to take the start line just like a pro racer.
- KEBC (Engine Brake Control) changes engine braking to your preference.
- Quick Shifter (KQS) allows the gears to be changed without the clutch.
- Fully automatic stability compensation control by Electronic Steering Damper.
- All the rides on the Ninja H2R are clever, exciting, and unexpectedly in control.
Track-Only, not in the Streets.
And here is what renders the Ninja H2R such a special one – it does not have the road license. It is a bike that is designed specifically to the racetrack. Its performance, noise and power are simply too excessive to be used on the public roads.
That is why owning it is as exclusive, rare, and passion built as a supercar. This machine is only seen and ridden by a very few individuals in the world.
Price and Exclusivity
The Kawasaki Ninja H2R is priced at about 280,000 to 300,000 Indian rupees in India and at about 56000 USD in the United States. That is a good one, and you can keep in mind that it is not only a motorcycle it is also a masterpiece of engineering.
H2Rs are made by hand, which makes each of them unique. It is a dream come true to bike collectors and performance enthusiasts.
The Riding Experience
No other bikes feel like riding the Ninja H2R. As the engine pops to start the engine, you simply shiver at the sound alone. It is so ferocious that it seems like being shot into a different dimension.
However, even with the insanity, the ride itself is smooth, which is helped by the electronics of Kawasaki that ensure the balance of power and control is maintained. Each change of gears is smooth and every turn razor-sharp.
Having had the privilege to have some track time on this bike it is an experience that you will never forget.
