Kawasaki Ninja H2r
La Kawasaki Ninja H2R a été présentée en 2015 en tant que moto hypercompressée réservée à la piste, développée par les divisions d'ingénierie combinées du groupe Kawasaki Heavy Industries. C'était la première fois qu'un grand constructeur produisait une moto de série suralimentée, générant des chiffres de puissance sans précédent qui redéfinissaient le plafond de performance des motos de série. La H2R reste l'une des machines les plus extrêmes jamais conçues pour une utilisation en circuit fermé, symbolisant la philosophie d'ingénierie de prestige « River Mark » de Kawasaki.

Ce que les acheteurs doivent savoir
Supercharged Centrifugal System
The H2R uses Kawasaki's in-house developed centrifugal supercharger, producing around 310 hp — a technology unique to Kawasaki among major manufacturers. This proprietary system requires specialized service intervals that only Kawasaki dealers are fully equipped to handle.
Strong Resale Value
Due to its limited production numbers and exclusivity, the H2R holds its value exceptionally well compared to conventional sportbikes. Track-only status and collector appeal mean well-maintained examples rarely depreciate significantly.
Track-Only Legal Status
The H2R is not street-legal anywhere in the world, lacking lights, mirrors, and emissions compliance — making it purely a closed-circuit machine. Buyers should factor in the added cost of trailer transport and dedicated track fees as ongoing ownership expenses.

Évaluation d'un acheteur d'occasion
"Spectacular machine, but only for serious, wealthy track obsessives."
$35,000-$55,000 usedLet's be brutally honest — the H2R isn't a used bike, it's a liability waiting to happen in the wrong hands. This thing makes 310 horsepower supercharged and it's track-only, meaning whoever owned it before you was probably wringing its neck regularly. Inspect every inch of the trellis frame, check supercharger bearings for whine, and demand full service history. Kawasaki's build quality is genuinely exceptional here, but these machines live hard lives. The supercharger service intervals are expensive and non-negotiable. Miss them and you're rebuilding an engine that costs more than most people's cars. That said, if you're a seasoned trackday junkie who understands what you're getting into, nothing — absolutely nothing — delivers this kind of engineering spectacle. The power delivery is savage but linear, the chassis is planted in a way that defies physics, and it sounds genuinely otherworldly under load. Just budget an extra $5,000 minimum for immediate maintenance on any used example.
