Pros and Cons in comparison

Kawasaki Ninja H2 2015

The Ninja H2 represents a milestone in motorbike history. It is not only packed with electronic innovations, but also offers completely new technologies in terms of engine construction and mechanics. This high-tech research object of a Japanese technology company is actually for sale and can also be ridden. Basically, it rides like a normal motorbike, only with considerably more power. At first, the engine response is a challenge, but speed freaks will find a way to ride and enjoy this fascinating motorbike.

Outstanding build quality

fascinating engine with mechanical turbocharger

pull, acceleration and speed on a completely new level

narrow seat ensures safe standing - even for smaller riders

great stability

motorbike inspires a lot of confidence despite high performance

strong brakes

high-quality details

Response behaviour in the transition from pushing mode to acceleration phase not at the level of "normal" motorbikes

understeer in fast bends

from body height 185 cm it could be difficult to integrate the feet into the overall aerodynamic concept - test seat!

Kawasaki Ninja 400 2018

In summary, the Ninja 400 could be described as the perfect entry into the supersport world. You can't get more power with A2, the looks suggest much more power, the vehicle is playful to ride, is forgiving in every respect and still allows a really sporty riding style. Those who had legitimate concerns about the lack of power on the various 250 cubic machines now have no more excuses. Ninja 400, it's good to have you!
