Review

The 2019 Kawasaki Ninja H2 R is a hyper-sport motorcycle that sits at the pinnacle of Kawasaki's engineering prowess. Building upon the legacy of the original Ninja H2, the 'R' variant takes performance to an extreme level, unbound by road regulations. While difficult to compare directly due to its exclusive track focus, it shares a similar performance bracket with limited-production machines like the Ducati Superleggera V4.

At the heart of the Ninja H2 R lies a liquid-cooled, 998.0 ccm (60.90 cubic inches) inline-four engine, force-fed by a centrifugal supercharger. This potent combination produces a staggering 310.0 HP (226.3 kW) at 14000 RPM. The engine also generates immense torque, peaking at 165.0 Nm (16.8 kgf-m or 121.7 ft.lbs) at 12500 RPM. To manage this power, the bike is equipped with sophisticated electronic rider aids. The fuel tank has a capacity of 17.00 litres (4.49 US gallons), sufficient for short, intense sessions on the track.

The 2019 Ninja H2 R offers a very aggressive, track-focused ergonomics. The riding position is designed for maximum control and feedback at high speeds, featuring rearset pegs and a low handlebar position that puts the rider in a tucked-in stance. The seat height is 830 mm (32.7 inches) at its lowest setting, which might be challenging for shorter riders. The suspension is firm and responsive, allowing for precise handling and stability when cornering at the limits.

The Kawasaki Ninja H2 R is aimed at experienced riders and collectors who seek the ultimate track weapon. It's not a motorcycle for everyday commuting or leisurely rides. Its extreme power and focused design demand respect and skill. The H2 R is more than just a motorcycle; it's a statement of engineering excellence and a pure expression of speed and performance for those who dare to push the boundaries.
