Sometimes, bikes are meant to be accessible, and offer real-world riding fun and performance. Sometimes, they’re just meant to showcase potential, to flaunt a manufacturer’s capability, to kick sand in the face of competitors. The H2 and H2R fall into this category. Does anyone actually need a nearly 300hp track-only motorcycle? Of course not. Reviews…
Our collector friend from Utah is at it again. If you’re not sure about whom I’m talking, check out this uber-rare Kawasaki KR-1R that he is selling from his collection. That is the caliber of model and condition that Gary brings to the table, and the two 400s pitted up against each other at auction…
The now-venerable 900 Ninja was Kawasaki’s 1984 foray into the world of water-cooled four-valve performance. The works team went right out and won their class in the Isle of Man TT, and the bikes did well in the showroom. With low miles for its age, this GPZ900R has great survivor looks and some interesting updates.…
It may take you a little bit to pry yourself away from this first picture. It’s OK, I’ll wait a moment. Yes, that is an honest-to-God, freaking *original* Kawasaki KR-1R. The rarest of the rare of the quarter-liter smoking set has arrived, and this is your chance (and likely your only chance) to score one…
The collection from Utah keeps on giving! Up for grabs this week is your choice of either a CBR400RR or a ZXR400R; both are 1995 models, but winning the auction only allows you to choose one. So which of these two ultra-rare grey bikes do you choose? Read on before you decide! From the seller:…

Some major manufactures had dipped a cautious toe into offering track level performance as a separate model option (ex: Suzuki GSX-750R LE) but the homologation era was still a bit…
Originally released in 2013, Kawasaki claimed the H2 was the world’s first supercharged production motorcycle (a sad nod to Roehr, notwithstanding). In street bike form, the H2 is a 200 HP contender. In the “R” format (delete lights and turn signals, add more boost, carbon fiber aero bodywork and slicks), this is a 300+ HP…
Little sportbikes like this very nice Kawasaki ZXR250 were never imported to the USA for a very good reason: there was basically zero demand for them. In other countries, licensing limitations, high taxes on larger-displacement bikes, and much more expensive fuel mean that riders don’t necessarily graduate from a 250 to a 600 to a…
