Pros and Cons in comparison

Kawasaki Ninja H2R 2023

The Kawasaki crew had a vision. To build a bike that would cause a stir and push forward into completely new dimensions in terms of performance and technology. This vision has been realised. The 326 Horsepower machine can be ridden by experienced pilots without acute danger to life. The intensity of the acceleration is indescribable. But the perfect overall appearance of the bike with countless high-quality details is also impressive. Compared to normal bikes, the H2 R has weaknesses in throttle response and line precision at high speeds. Overall, the H2 R is the most fascinating bike of all time for the test pilot and can be recommended to petrol junkies with a clear conscience. The H2 R is available for the price of a well-equipped German-made premium estate - only with "a little" more adrenalin.

Build quality

power, torque, acceleration, surprisingly low maintenance in the 300hp league

acceleration - like something from another planet

very good engine modulation

if you are over 185 cm tall, be sure to try it out - it could be tight on your feet

high-quality details at every corner

over 300hp, yet highest quality standards from series production

superb paintwork

excellent brakes

great stability in every situation

Engine reponsiveness at the first few degrees on the throttle

understeer at high speeds

higher maintenance requirements than with normal bikes

the sound is infernal - you can love it, but it can also lead to problems on race tracks

Kawasaki Ninja 400 2023

The Ninja 400 offers a lot of riding fun at a manageable price. It offers playful handling without being nervous. The name "Ninja" is a bit of a mouthful, but the range of use is wider than you might think. It rides sportily, but also offers a good riding position for everyday use and touring.

Good combination of stability and playful handling

Robust and reliable appearance

Well controllable engine

Wide usable rev range

Pleasant seating position

Limited space for large pilots
