The Kawasaki Ninja H2 is a superbike from Kawasaki. It has been discontinued (production ended around 2025). Mechiee still services it at your doorstep. Superbikes are the fastest, most powerful road-going sports bikes. With a 998 cc engine it sits in the big-bike, 800 cc-plus class.
Power comes from a 998 cc 4-cylinder liquid-cooled fuel-injected engine that makes 231 PS at 11,500 rpm and 141.7 Nm of torque at 11,000 rpm. Peak torque comes high up, at 11,000 rpm, so it rewards revving. Its bore is wider than its stroke (76 mm x 55 mm), a short-stroke layout that generally favours higher revs. Divide power by kerb weight and it has about 971 PS per tonne; by that measure, its performance is at superbike level and rewards an experienced rider. It has electric start.
It has a 6-speed manual gearbox, and a chain carries drive to the rear wheel. It uses a wet multi-plate clutch.
Its frame is trellis, High-Tensile steel, with swingarm mounting plate. At the front, the suspension is 43 mm inverted fork with rebound and compression damping, spring preload adjustability and top-out springs. At the rear, it is Uni-Trak, Öhlins TTX36 gas-charged shock with piggyback reservoir, compression damping, rebound damping, preload adjustability and top-out spring. Braking is by a 330 mm disc at the front and a 250 mm disc at the rear, with dual-channel ABS. ABS on both wheels keeps either tyre from locking under hard braking. It rides on 17-inch alloy wheels with tubeless tyres — 120/70-17 at the front and 200/55-17 at the rear.
The seat is 825 mm off the ground, which is on the tall side, so shorter riders may want to try it first. It weighs 238 kg ready to ride, which is heavy, so parking and tight U-turns need care. Ground clearance is 130 mm — low, so take speed breakers and steep ramps slowly. It is 2,085 mm long, with 1,455 mm between the axles. It carries 17 L of fuel.
Equipment includes an analogue and digital instrument console, an LED headlamp, distance-to-empty readout and quickshifter. Safety equipment includes traction control and low fuel indicator.
For the Kawasaki Ninja H2, Mechiee offers a fixed ₹21,999 doorstep service.
It is best suited to riders who want performance and sharp handling. With this much performance, it is better as a step-up bike than a first bike.
Its chain drive needs regular cleaning, lubrication and slack adjustment.
