The launch of the mighty Kawasaki Ninja H2R superbike hyperbike megabike left the motoring fraternity in shock and awe as the Japanese bike maker pushed the two-wheeler technology envelope to outer space with the 300HP supercharged monster. Just like everyone else, we were curious to figure how this track-only beast will fare against the similar four-wheeled monstrosities like the 1200 HP Bugatti Veyron. It isn’t, however currently possible for weblogs like ours to bring these extremities together on a drag strip in a country like India.
Thanks then, to the good folks at Super Street Magazine who read our, and every curious petrol head’s minds and placed the H2R against three supercars – the McLaren 12C, a ferocious 1200 HP Bugatti Veyron and a heavily modded, thunderous 1350 HP Nissan GT-R – for a half mile airstrip run.
What powers these demons?
- Kawasaki Ninja H2R: 998cc Supercharged Inline Four cylinder
- McLaren MP4-12C: 3.8-Litre Twin Turbo V8
- Bugatti Veyron: 8.0-Litre Quad-Turbo W16
- Nissan GT-R: 3.8-Litre Twin-Turbo V6

Totally expected result.. The McLaren was way underpowered.. The Bugatti was way to heavy.. And as expected four wheels put the power down better than a single wheel and hence the GTR triumphed..
Yes, the H2R is a masterpiece. Wish we get to ride it.
Yes, power-to-weight does play a crucial role.
that’s because of power to weight ratio
