Details of Kawasaki Ninja H2R nearly 2 billion VND in Vietnam

Kawasaki Ninja H2R will be priced in Vietnam at 1.8 billion VND, 500 million VND more expensive than the Ninja H2 Carbon that was previously distributed and has a price equal to the "unboxed" luxury car BMW 3-Series.

Kawasaki Ninja H2R in Vietnam has officially appeared at the official showroom in Hanoi, this will be a competitor to high-performance super-bike models such as BMW M1000RR, Ducati Panigale V4R or Honda CBR1000RR-R.

At the official Kawasaki showroom in Hanoi, the price of the Kawasaki Ninja H2R is listed at 1.83 billion VND. With this amount of money, users can buy a brand new BMW 3-Series instead of a car that is only used on the racetrack like the H2R.

Because it is only for the racetrack, the Ninja H2R has removed details such as lights and rearview mirrors to reduce weight and optimize aerodynamics. Therefore, the Ninja H2R imported to the country can only be used for display purposes or running on the racetrack.

The front of the car is also equipped with many carbon details such as the spoiler replacing the rearview mirror position. Dual carbon spoilers are also equipped on the 2 side fairings to optimize downforce on the road, the front uses KYB shock absorbers.

The Kawasaki Ninja H2R superbike is painted with an exclusive mirror silver coating for the fuel tank, this paint can make small scratches heal themselves over time, helping the paint always maintain a high-quality finish.

The Kawasaki River Mark logo is mounted on the front of the vehicle to mark the historical models of Kawasaki. The wheel is a 17-inch star-shaped 5-spoke type made of lightweight cast aluminum designed specifically for the Ninja H2R thanks to data from the Kawasaki motorcycle racing team.

The H2R is equipped with Brembo Stylema disc brakes with 4-piston opposed calipers and 330mm disc diameter for impressive braking ability. The Brembo clutch and front brake lever are designed to prevent wind force from affecting the brake levers when the bike is running at high speed.

Digital gauges on the front of the bike, cornering angle display on the dashboard and maximum lean angle recording function thanks to the 6-axis IMU. Kawasaki's electric power steering is co-developed with Ohlins.

The driving position is designed to provide the most secure feeling when driving at high speeds and cornering close to the road. To support the driver when accelerating strongly, there are additional hip pads at the back. The hip position can be adjusted back 15mm to suit each driver's physique.

The rear shock absorber system called TTX336 by Ohlins brings many benefits to the driver such as increasing the stability of the rear of the vehicle, optimizing shock absorption and increasing driving comfort, increasing stability when cornering, providing better feedback & feeling with the road surface and more stability at high speeds.

Kawasaki's Traction Control (KTRC) system has up to 9 modes for the rider to choose from, and can also be turned off completely. KTRC is smart in that it doesn't wait for the wheel to slip before reacting, it analyzes the input data to predict the next possible situation and makes the most appropriate adjustments to minimize wheel slippage and loss of traction.

Kawasaki's Launch Control (KLCM) system supports the vehicle's acceleration ability from a standstill. KLCM automatically adjusts the engine's output to minimize wheel slippage and wheelie when the driver turns the throttle hard, while still ensuring the strongest acceleration.

In addition, Kawasaki's intelligent anti-lock braking system called KIBS has the ability to analyze driving situations and apply extremely precise braking force, allowing the driver to confidently drive at high speeds without having to worry too much about losing control.

The H2R uses a 998 cc inline 4-cylinder engine, with a supercharger that produces 310 horsepower and 164 Nm of torque. The maximum speed the H2 R can reach is 380 km/h.

This is also the superbike model that holds the world's fastest record from 2016 until now. Ninja H2 R only takes 26 seconds to reach a speed of 0 to 400 km/h on the Osman Gazi bridge in Türkiye.
