Journalists have been testing the Kwak H2 and H2R today.

Fastest speed of the day on track?

Good mag this month (y) you read the 1299 and R1 reviews ? I have to test ride these two this summer.

I honestly can't remember a year so good for superbikes. There have been years with one great bike that leaps in front of the opposition but the new 1299, R1 and sthou all in one year is a classic IMO.

Feck me, don't think I ever got my bike over 155 on the straight at Silverstone or Snet, two of the fastest tracks in the UK and that's coming past at motorway speeds!

It would seem that the speed in question was not done yesterday and not by a journalist.

Mighty impressive still, as long as it wasn't on a dyno. ;)

"4 – The impeller at the heart of the supercharger breaks the speed of sound at high revs. That’s why it makes a little chirping sound as you gas it hard between corners. It’s mental!"
how god dam cool is that !

We got through a set of Bridgestone slicks every session on the H2 R. That’s what happens when you release 320bhp at the exit of every corner

Shit. That's an expensive trackday.

I see from that link that I was right about Kwak using this as an engineering exercise. I suspect we'll start to see parts from the H2 appear on their other bikes.

A supercharged zx6r would be something special.

superchargers make such a great noise,I would love a test ride on a H2 I bet the engine just sings

I wonder if its sold out like the new r1 ,im still on the marmite side for the styling but that engine just sounds immense
