As owners take receipt of their purchases, 2015 will be marked significantly by the arrival of the Kawasaki Ninja H2/R supercharged sport bikes.
Kawasaki has assured us that it won’t take much tinkering for the H2 street bike to meet the performance specs of the H2R, a fact many deriders of the machine seem to forget when spec-sheet racing.
We are perhaps disappointed that Kawasaki made owning a Ninja H2 and Ninja H2R such an exclusive process, as it robs us of the chance to see some extreme concepts and customizations from the motorcycling community.
Take this streetfighter concept of Kawasaki Ninja H2R by AD Koncept, for instance. Pure brawny muscle, the H2 surely has the makings of being the ultimate streetfighter.
We especially like how the H2R’s long air intake into the supercharger is highlighted by the absence of fairings. The extreme angles, a part of Kawasaki’s recent design language, work well with the streetfighter aesthetic, making for a bike you would not want to meet in a dark alleyway.
With minimal work, this could be the 300hp hooligan bike of your dreams, assuming you could afford the $50,000 price tag, of course.
