So the point of the H2 now would be....?

[Polokid69]

a very expensive waste of money

I've always been like eh on the H2, there are several super sports in that horsepower range, the H2R is the only one that has wow factor imo

It's just a show bike for Kawasaki produced in low volumes so I wouldn't even compare it to anything else. I figure if you have $25k to spend on a bike, there are much better options out there.

I like it. Its on my list when I look for sure.

I think the ZX-14 is a much better looking bike than the H2

I think that the point of the H2 is that it has a blower on it. It is a different kind of bike. Look at the '03-'04 Mustang Cobra. 390HP from the factory. Exhaust, intake, smaller blower pulley and a tune and you are well over 600. A later model ('07+) GT500 with 450HP is a hand full of mods away from being a fire breathing 750HP monster. The later ones with more power and parts from the factory can hit 900HP without too much trouble. A naturally aspirated bike and a bike with a blower in the same HP range are 2 just different animals.

That ZX10R is pretty badass.

I agree. It don't take much to gain HP with a turbo or supercharged motor. Small things make a big difference in them. A turbo Neon can be quite a beast with very little added money.

But it's still a POS Neon. You can just crash faster in it...
