Kawasaki Ninja H2 Coming to India Next Year

  

Kawasaki, the Japanese bikemaker, might launch the all new Ninja H2 in the Indian market next year. The H2 is the street legal version of the track-only bike - the Ninja H2R that produces a mind-boggling 300PS (296bhp). With such immense power, the H2R is the most powerful regular-production bike ever. That said, the H2R can only be ridden on tracks, and only a few lucky people in the world will own that. The company will produce the track-only model in very small numbers.

2015 Kawasaki Ninja H2 Highlights
- 998cc four-cylinder engine fitted with Kawasaki supercharger for intense acceleration
- Supercharger uses planetary gears, spins at up to 130,000rpm and develops up to 20.5psi boost pressure
- Dog-ring transmission allows fast shifting and works with standard quick shifter
- Bodywork developed with Kawasaki Aerospace Company to generate downforce

- Kawasaki River Mark used to indicate combined Kawasaki Group technology
- Trellis frame used for first time to provide strength, controlled flex and air circulation
- Single-sided swingarm used for first time, mounted to engine as a stressed member
- KYB AOS-II Air-Oil Separate cartridge fork, adjustable KYB rear shock
- 330mm front discs with four-piston Brembo calipers
- Multi-mode traction control, launch control, engine braking control, ABS and a quick shifter
Since the H2R is around Rs. 35 lakh, we expect the H2 to be priced in the range of Rs. 26-30 lakh.
