Indian actor and producer John Abraham specializes in producing Hindi-language movies. He has a National Film Award and five Filmfare Award nominations, and he is well known for playing the stoic action hero. But did you know he is also a superbike collector? He has had more than ten superbikes, and he frequently adds new vehicles to his garage. Here’s a list of the most exotic superbikes owned by him.
Ducati Panigale V4
Since 2011, Ducati has been producing the Panigale line of sport motorcycles. John Abraham is an owner of the Panigale V4 in its signature color red. The 998, 4-cylinder engine that powers the Panigale produces a maximum output of 221 PS and a maximum torque of 112 Nm. The actor has also installed an SC-Project exhaust on the Panigale. The bike costs Rs 27,41,000 ex-showroom in India.
Aprilia RSV4 RF
Italian motorcycles like the Aprilia RS4 are well known for their excellent performance. A more intense track-focused, limited-edition variant of the Aprilia RSV4 RR is the RSV4 RF. Although the RSV4 RR is already a track-ready motorcycle, Aprilia advances it with the RF. The 999.6cc liquid cooled V4 engine in the Aprilia RSV4 RF is the same as the one in the RR. Nonetheless, the RF is calibrated to generate 115Nm of torque at 10,500 rpm and 198.2bhp at 13,000 rpm. It is connected to a gearbox with six speeds. John has also equipped the SC-Project exhaust in his RSV4 RF.
Kawasaki ZX11-D2
The Kawasaki ZX11-D2 served as the foundation for John’s superbike collection. At the time, it was faster than the Honda CBR1100XX and the fastest motorcycle in the entire globe. For as long as six years, the ZX11 held the record for fastest motorcycle in the world. After a few years, John sold the bike to upgrade. John Abraham claimed in an interview that he tried to purchase the bike back but was unsuccessful.
MV Agusta F3 800
The MV Agusta is another Italian motorcycle that John Abraham owns. One of the most stunning motorcycles, the F3, is propelled by a 798cc, three-cylinder engine with a maximum output of 148 PS and a maximum torque of 88 Nm. Since the Italian company first arrived in India in October 2015, the F3 800 is one of the first three MV Agusta motorcycles to be sold there. The bike is now no longer available.
2023 Suzuki Hayabusa
Only a few weeks ago, with the success of the film “Pathaan,” did the actor add the 2023 Suzuki Hayabusa to his garage. The official 2023 Suzuki Hayabusa is already on the market in India and costs Rs 16.41 lakh, ex-showroom. It still has the powerful 1,340cc, in-line four-cylinder engine. A maximum of 190 Hp and 150 Nm of peak torque are generated by the liquid-cooled engine. Several electrical features and assistances are also included with the bike.
Kawasaki Ninja ZX-14R
John owns a Kawasaki Ninja ZX14R with a 1,441cc, 4-cylinder engine. Because to its history in extreme sports, the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-14R has a sizable fan base in India. The 2016 version is expected to be significantly better even though it has been on sale in India since 2013. The same 1441cc liquid-cooled engine that powers the 2016 Ninja ZX-14R delivers 200 horsepower and 210 horsepower with RAM air and a maximum torque of 158 Nm. According to the Japanese manufacturer, the suspension has been re-tuned for better high-speed stability. The green Ninja, which is still in his garage, is something he uses frequently.
60th Anniversary Yamaha V-Max
The 60th Anniversary Yamaha V-Max is the first motorcycle that John Abraham displays from his collection. It receives a unique livery with hints of black and yellow on it. A 1.7-litre V4 engine producing a magnificent 200 Hp and 169 Nm powers the motorcycle. The VMAX and its five speed gearbox are largely untouched below the new exterior.
Yamaha R1
Its cross-plane crankshaft R1 engine has a 998cc, four-cylinder displacement and can produce up to 200 PS and 112 Nm of peak torque. The Yamaha YZF-R1, often known as the R1, is a sports motorbike in the 1,000 cc class. The 1998 original was updated significantly in 2000, 2002, 2004, 2006, 2007, 2009, 2015, 2018, and 2020. John Abraham received a brand-new YZF-R1 when he agreed to serve as Yamaha’s brand ambassador in 2006. He gave the bicycle the moniker “Black Raven.” He gave Tarun Mansukhani, a movie director, the bike in 2008. John also owns the new-generation R1, which was added to his collection recently.
Suzuki GSX-R1000
In 2013, he purchased the GSX-R1000 superbike. One of the most aggressive performance bikes at the time was the GSX-R. His GSX-R was decorated in white and blue. A 1000cc inline four liquid-cooled engine powers the GSX-R1000. The GSX-R1000 generates 118Nm of torque at 10,800 rpm and 196bhp at 13,200 rpm.
