Kawasaki H2R produces an immense power of 305.75bhp.
Before we begin, it is worth mentioning that Kawasaki delivered the first and only Kawasaki H2R in 2019. Since then, there has been no second buyer, to date. It is the most powerful production motorcycle in the world. If we compare this with the famous Suzuki Hayabusa, it delivers 190bhp, while the Ninja H2R delivers 306bhp of peak power. And, not to forget, "with great power comes great responsibility."
As for safety features, the H2R is injected with Kawasaki Traction Control, Kawasaki Cornering Management Function, Kawasaki Launch Control Mode, Kawasaki Traction Control, Kawasaki Intelligent Anti-lock Brake System, Kawasaki Engine Brake Control, and a Kawasaki Quick Shifter.
Kawasaki has used carbon fibre to build a lightweight Ninja H2R, and even to make it sharper, the brand has equipped aerodynamic winglets to keep the machine stuck to the road. But with all assistive safety features, it will imbalance, if not ridden with proper focus.
The Kawasaki Ninja H2R can achieve 100 km/h in less than 3.5 seconds and 400 km/h in less than 26 seconds, and it delivers a peak torque of 165 Nm at 12,500 rpm. This powerful unit makes the rear wheel spin via a six-speed manual transmission.
The figures are enough to tell you that a newbie rider can’t handle the machine even for 5 minutes. That’s why Kawasaki has injected a bunch of security features.
Now let’s light up the “illegal concept of Kawasaki H2R." First, it’s a misconception that Ninja is not road-legal; it is available on the brand’s website, and the machine is completely legal and can be registered in any state in India. However, in some countries, it maybe a non-road-legal bike.
In India, there are different speed limits on different highways. Besides that, India’s fastest track, NATRAX, has a maximum speed limit of 375 km/h, so technically, it is impossible to use this bike to its full potential on any Indian road even at NATRAX.
The older models were illegal because they did not follow emission norms.
Lastly, the available powerful bikes in India include the BMW S 1000 RR, BMW M 1000 RR, Suzuki Hayabusa, Kawasaki Z H2, and Ducati Panigale V4 R, to name a few.
