With an extremely high power-to-weight ratio, the H2 delivers acceleration that a production motorcycle has never offered, claims Kawasaki.

The Kawasaki Ninja H2 is powered by a supercharged 998 cc in-line, four cylinder engine that produces a combined power output of 200 PS, while peak torque stands at 133.5 Nm delivered at 10,500 rpm. A six-speed gearbox is coupled to the engine via a wet multiplate clutch.

The combination of a forced induction engine and serious electronics (multi-mode traction control, launch control and quick shifter) makes for a machine that can deliver some pretty intense acceleration and an ultra-high top speed.

With a kerb weight of 238 kg, the H2 has a power-to-weight ratio of 0.88 hp/kg (210 PS output with ram-air benefit), which when combined with the forced induction from the supercharger offers an acceleration that hasn't been experienced before, claims Kawasaki.

The supercharged 998 cc engine delivers a 0-100 km/h time of less than 2.5 seconds, faster than a Bugatti Veyron.

While not officially disclosed, the ferocious acceleration provided by the Ninja H2's supercharged engine is capable of posting a Bugatti Veyron beating 0-100 km/h time of less than 2.5 seconds.
