After more than a Decade of Road Rule, the Busa is STILL the fastest bike from 0-60mph!!! at 3.22secs! H2 vs R1 vs Busa!!! What a battle!! The Hyabusa still has the acceleration of the Mountain eagle it's named after, and the R1 has the best handling & electronics on normal roads at moderate speed... The H2 however has the highest top-end, horsepower and better handling at insane speeds (from 100-180+mph)...

The FUTURE...from Kawasaki

So just where will the future take us? And more importantly how fast?

Enter The Kawasaki 2015 H2 & H2R

The H2R packs the gob-smacking 320bhp!!! And the H2 street version will apparently do the same after some minor tuning!! This is a big jump in technology..and in horsepower & speed. But, will it be as big a jump as the one produced by Walter Kaaden in wartime East Germany? That remains to be seen.

UPDATE!: FINALLY!! - The H2 is Un-boxed & tested by a load of English Riders in Qatar!:

Awesome On-board Footage!: And here at Suzuka. Forward the video to: 7:52 as it's just people standing around before that.
It moves like a true rocket! And does not look easy to at all!!! And here is a good overview of all that has been thrown into the design & technology of the bikes:

The sound of it changing up through the gears is just awesome! And here is some more track light-speed footage: Followed by some good tech-comparisons:

And take a peek at the new ABS Anti-lock brakes & other new tech on the 2015 GSXR1000:

In the video the sound of the bike sounds a bit muffled... I hope that was just the video, coz you don't really want to muffle-out the awesome sound of a GSXR opening up!!!

2015 GSX-R1000

For more than a decade, the GSX-R1000 was the most successful name in 1,000cc production-based road racing around the globe, earning it the title of The Top Performer. The 2015 Suzuki GSX-R1000 is ready to prove itself to be a legendary motorcycle with amazing throttle response, power, and acceleration at mid-range engine speeds – all with great fuel economy. Engineering your dream bike to go fast is not the only priority at Suzuki. Bred from the same DNA as our MotoGP machines, the GSX-R1000 draws heavily on Suzuki’s racing expertise.

Commemorating Suzuki’s 2015 return to MotoGP racing, the new GSX-R1000 is dressed in Suzuki Racing Blue to express Suzuki’s spirit and passion for racing. The GSX-R line delivers outstanding braking capabilities with its Brembo calipers and heat-resistant stainless steel brake discs. The bike maneuvers like a dream with a solid chassis design and responsive suspension. The ability to stop as you please, to turn as you command, is just as important to Suzuki as it is to you.

Simply put, the GSX-R1000 offers outstanding engine performance from idle to redline, smooth suspension performance, responsive handling, and superior braking to reclaim its Top Performer status and Own The Racetrack.

And here is a video low-down on the Fireblade 2015:

And the YZFR1 2015 preesnted by Mr.Rossi himself:

Nice!!! That was more than enough to keep me going for now...!!! Remember, the whole history of where
all these crazy superbikes came from; is on the first few posts of this blog... So have a good click back through them... You may be surprised what's in there, and what happened in the 1980's, and shocked by
what happened in East Germany in the 1960's! There's some great older footage in there too for you to really appreciate or reminisce how it was in the good old days!

And just for the hell of it, here's another R1 vid, with no gay music & some really decent acceleration & hardcore riding followed by some exhaust flames!!!

Another question for 2015 & for Suzuki is: Will Suzuki make a GP comeback in 2015?
Kawasaki have revealed they will hit the track hard with their new turbo-charged machine...,
but will Suzuki produce something better and faster??! We will just have to wait & see!

BMW took the TT last summer with the S1...So will their 2015 S1 be topped?? Is the S1 even beatable?!! See for yourself:
