The rumours and the waiting can finally be put to rest now as the legendary Japanese bike maker has finally revealed what we can safely call the most insane superbike on the planet. Kawasaki, have shown us the first pictures of their 998cc supercharged bike and they have given us a few of its specifications, which inform us that it will have more than 300bhp available to power it. This bike is being called the Ninja H2R and it looks incredibly fast even when it’s not moving.
The Kawasaki Ninja H2R motorcycle is an engineering marvel that has been made possible only through the sourcing of technological expertise from multiple divisions of Kawasaki Heavy Industries. Just to give you an example, the Gas Turbine division was crucial in the development of a hyper-efficient supercharger, custom components were created to near-impossible tolerances by the Machinery division, and the Aerospace division crafted the distinctive carbon-fiber bodywork of this aerodynamic masterpiece that looks ‘oh soo awesome’.
The result is a system of carefully crafted premium components that work in concert to create an unbelievably powerful machine—one that’s more than worthy of the legendary H2 name. But keep in mind that this H2R is a track only tool and will cost you a fortune, which means you can’t even ride it on a daily basis unless you visit a track every day. But there is word from Kawasaki that they will come out with an H2 version that will be road legal. Whatever is said and done, the Ninja H2R is sensational and with 300bhp on just two wheels, we can only imagine what it feels like to ride it.
