A Motorbike Racer Hit 249mph Riding A Kawasaki H2R On A Closed Bridge

On the newly completed İzmit Bay Bridge in Turkey, Turkish supersport rider Kenan Sofuoğlu took Kawasaki's crazy supercharged H2R up to an incredible 249mph

The reason the track-only H2R is so damn fast, is because it’s stupidly powerful. As in 300bhp powerful. For a bike, that’s utterly mad, and it’s all thanks to a supercharged 998cc inline-four cylinder engine. If all that sounds a bit too mad, there is a slightly less crazy 210bhp ‘H2’, which can actually be used on the road.

Right! Suzuki paid a ton of people and even got CT in on the lie for a bike you can’t even purchase. Good thing you called them out on it and saved us all from thinking a production track only bike is fast! You could follow up by looking at some of the sources posted or maybe do a simple interwebz search. You could, you know, click the pic and watch the video too. That might help.

He could have gone faster, though. But his massive balls were weighing hin down.
