Ninja H2 |
Over the years many motorcycle manufactures have released their super bikes with challenging top speeds. So lets take a look at who leads the race. Actually many super bikes that were released recently have their top speeds almost same as to the others. The Suzuki Hayabusa (or GSX1300R) had their lead for a very long while. And many still thinks they are still the fastest. But yes, Hayabusa is still on the list but not the fastest. Hayabusa has a top speed of 194 mph( approx. 312 kph)

The Ninja H2's track only version Ninja H2R does a top speed of 222 mph( approx. 357kph). The Ninja H2 and H2R are the most powerful road legal production bike currently.
MV Agusta F4 R 312 does a top speed of 194mph(312kph).
Where as there is a superbike The MTT Turbine Superbike, also known as the Y2K Turbine Superbike which is currently the worlds fastest motor cycle and the most expensive. But the production of this bike ended back in 2005. But I'm not sure if i would want to own this thing even if i had the money. The machine is powered by a Rolls-Royce-Allison Model 250 gas turbine. The bike claims to have a top speed of 250 mph which is close to 400 kph but they have never proven so.
