Kawasaki Ninja H2R.

The Ninja H2R motorcycle has gone beyond any other Kawasaki motorcycle in terms of development. The world's only limited production supercharged hypersport model represents the unbounded high point of Kawasaki engineering, with astonishing acceleration and mind-bending top speed suitable only for the track, thanks to unprecedented collaboration between multiple divisions within the Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd. (KHI) organisation.

The supercharged Ninja H2R closed-course motorcycle's extraordinary power output is only achievable thanks to a set of perfectly tuned and meticulously built high-quality components. Plenty of premium, high-performance components surround the Ninja H2R motorcycle's high-output engine, all chosen for unrivalled performance at track speeds.

The rotating supercharger is chosen for its high-rpm performance because it is extremely efficient at compressing air (at up to 2.4x atmospheric pressure) while minimising heat. The supercharger's efficiency eliminates the need for a big, heavy intercooler to cool the compressed air. The supercharger was built to fit the engine, enabling for high-efficiency operating in a wider range of conditions than a normal supercharger could deliver.

Rather than reacting to wheel slip, this IMU-enhanced feedback version of Kawasaki TRaction Control (KTRC) forecasts situations and acts before slippage exceeds the range for optimal traction. Riders can pick from nine different modes to control how much KTRC interferes with their riding. KTRC can also be turned off entirely.

The aerodynamic design of the Ninja H2R motorbike helps to reduce drag, create downforce, and assure ideal airflow to the supercharger. KHI's Aerospace Division produced carbon-fiber vortex down control wings with slanted winglets to help smooth airflow around the wingtips so the wings can effectively create downforce. 

A chin spoiler contributes to downforce production and increased stability, while a highly stiff carbon-fiber upper cowl and aerodynamically designed rear cowl help efficiently direct airflow to minimise resistance.

It is, without a doubt, the most technologically advanced bike on the market. It's so advanced that the Ninja H2R will never be seen on a public road, according to the bike's creators, who claim that this ballistic missile can only be ridden by a few extremely talented and trained motorcyclists.

Kawasaki was already creating lightning-fast superbikes, but in order to produce this missile of a bike, the Japanese automakers pushed themselves to create something never seen before in the world. It may have ushered in a new era of high-performance motorcycles.

The Kawasaki Ninja H2R competes with the Suzuki Hayabusa, BMW S 1000 R, and Ducati Streetfighter V4 in the superbike spectrum, despite having no direct competitors.
