Do you think the Kawasaki Ninja H2 R is the best bike for U-Drags? If not, let us know why and which bike you think would reign supreme in our U-Drags format.
The H2R is just too powerful for the U-Drags set-up. You’d probably be better off trying a ‘traditional’ Superbike, maybe a BMW 1000r, Kawasaki ZX10, Honda Fireblade or Yamaha R1. However, the Turbo S is an absolute weapon! There’s not a ICE bike in production that can get close in the 0-100 k/ph compared to the Porsche. Great content again.😁👍🏼🇬🇧🇺🇸
@@oh-no they should bring on Chris Northover from Bike World. Chris Moore is probably one of the best drag racers in the world, but even he admitted in this video that he's not very good at braking/cornering.
Don't get me wrong, Chris Moore can drag race and tune with the best of them, and I have the utmost respect for him...but, I feel like this race is way better suited for someone that knows proper body positioning for turning, and setting up to brake until the apex like we do on the track. All of these new bikes are fast straight line. He barely moved. Most of us would have our ass off the seat, and forearm touching across the tank... He lost on the brakes and turn, big time. Like I said, in a straight up drag race...he's the man, though! Just my $.02...not that it's worth anything...
@@benchmark3332I think that's part of the point of the video. It illustrates that pretty much any schmuck with functioning hands and one foot can get a fast time out of that Porsche. I'm not not saying that driver is incompetent or anything, just illustrating my point. And of course, you are correct as well. A professional driver would get a better time. The H2R on the other hand will literally kill you if you try to launch it like that without knowing exactly what you're doing.
H2 r is not really a great bike its overrated, all it can ever do is straight line and that's it. Kawasaki calls it a track bike but everyone who rode it wont choose it over other light less hp bikes.
@@MonicaHolly143 Kawasaki doesn't *actually* consider it a track bike. They just market it that way because they wouldn't legally be able to sell it as a road bike, primarily due to emissions. As someone else commented, it's an engineering benchmark, and a damn cool one at that.
Chris can launch like nobody's business but really gotta work on his turns. He looks like he's half-heartedly looking for a parking spot getting turned around.
All he knows is stretched bikes hence the reason he couldn’t launch this bike for sh!t. Drag racers are straight line racers who use all gas, no brakes, and no turns. Worst pick ever for this challenge.
@billnorblat4047 not even close to the same. Any drooling fool can run a car to a competitive time, but it takes a lot more to get the bike around. The guy on the bike doesn't even hang off or achieve anything resembling a lean angle. It's not even close to comparable.
Find someone who can turn a bike; he's pulling the clutch in around the corner. The 911 would still be way faster in the corner, but c'mon might as well walk the bike around the cone at that point.
I agree they should hold tryouts with both riders on the same bike that would cool to watch how slow Chris actually is. Those turns look like new rider turns...
PLEASE, get someone who corners the bike as hard as it can go. This rider is cornering slower than I do on public roads. The Ninja could have so much more speed out of that corner.
@@n300zx931 Very simply put, The maximum G's a Ninja H2 can achieve in a turn is less than 1 without major modification. At a 45 degree lean angle, you have exactly 1 lateral G. If you lean further with that bike, it scrapes on the ground cuz it thicc. The Porsche can probably get close to 1.2 G's in the corner and do so without much difficulty to the driver. This does assume track tires so probably more like 1.1G's with the tires used in this video. In this video, you see the rider is probably only leaning a maximum of 32ish degrees and without body position. There is one advantage that bikes have in cornering. Since they are only a tire wide on the pavement, the track is wider to them and can take a wider turn. Fun fact, a Civic type R can turn better than that bike.
@@VroomNDoom2602 G force only matters in steady state cornering. Yaw rate is what counts for this kind of test. Thats why the big power race bikes take different lines - they have enough power to sacrifice corner speed in favour of faster yaw (turn rate) so tend to brake more in a straight line then turn later and harder which effectively straightens their exit line and allows them to use more power sooner. Chris doesn't understand this - or at best if he does he isn't capable of making use of it.
Its great but has one flaw - its consistency relies on the driver. You can have the same driver on a bad day and get pretty big swings in results - even if they don't get on with the vehicle it can make a massive difference.
@@bugpumper It’s not a surprise, but I wouldn’t rule out the C8 Z06 so fast because it’s more powerful than the 992 Turbo S and it can brake and turn really hard. In fact, only on the acceleration parts the Porsche was expected to be the undisputed winner.
Shows how traction can beat a stupid low weight to power figure; but the way that H2R goes when it hooks up though is MENTAL; 173mph over the line is crazy, especially from a slower cornering exit speed.
Unprepped airstrip and a tight turn around... I knew before it started that the H2R had to be way ahead to have a chance on the way back. You cant really lean over hard on that surface without skidding out. This is more of a testimate to how good the 911 turbo s is vs the H2R... both are pretty incredible.

What a race! 🔥 The H2R's raw power is undeniable, but it's clear that traction and technique are key. Chris Moore's drag racing skills are top-notch, but his cornering seemed to hold back the bike's potential. Imagine the outcome if he'd mastered those turns! Also, can we talk about how impressive that Porsche's cornering was? It's not just about straight-line speed; it's the finesse in the turns that can make or break a race. This just goes to show, it's not always the fastest machine that wins, but the best combination of speed, skill, and strategy. What do you guys think? Could a different rider have unleashed more of the H2R's beastly potential in those crucial corners? 🏍
We need a Chris Moore video on a track with the same bike as a moto gp rider to see how he compares lol. I’m pretty sure those moto gp guys are giving a decent amount of throttle mid turn. Seen lots of videos of them doing a wheely mid turn which is the only reason I think that
Damn, the bike loses and people are going crazy. Thisnwhy we can't have good things. Not many if any other channels are doing these type of videos. Let's just enjoy it
Before you bring that beast to a drag race, I suggest the rider to fully attach swing arms to it’s bike and then see its performance man! That bike is an absolute beast! 👌🔥

I love the U-Drags series and it's great to see Chris' drag racing skills on display, but you have to do something about the u-turn section. Chris is coasting through the corner with the clutch in. He's not anywhere near the limits of the bike or the tires for that portion of the race. It makes the comparison meaningless.
Seeing chris took the turn so slow makes me jump lmao. I started riding when i was 14. And i can take turn like that in 50mph. Chris was probably at 10mph taking those U turn
Dont think any bike will be able to beat the porsche in a U drag. the porsche is great at launching, good acceleration, good top speed, good brakes, and good handling. its strong in basically all areas of the U drag
BMW M1000RR Ducati V4R V4S V4 Superleggera Aprilia RSV4 will do the job they can even smoke 765LT time We need better rider like Josh Herrin or any professional riders
I'd rather see street legal bikes vs street legal cars. R1/6/7, Grom, Monster, M9, Rocket III, etc ... Chris is taking it easy on presenters who have difficulty operating the Porsche PDK...might as well been a true manual
I love the exposure Chis is getting with U-Drags. Out of all the motorcycle channels, Chis is by far the best. I don't know what his background is but IMO he's a mechanical engineer or just a guy with a very high IQ and it all comes naturally. Edmonds is a killer channel.

Use a bike that is street legal? The H2r is a monster... and a unicorn. Never gonna see one on the street (legally)... And to the too much power bs excuse--- the bike has electronics to settle it down. USE THEM. Chris is legend both on and off track. I would've chosen him to rep the Kawi as well. With some practice he would win. Great race. Love the U Drags!!!
Chris had an awesome launch on the first race but braking at the end of the straight and then turning was definitely a handful to execute. I wish they could've given Chris another shot because the potential is there to beat the Porsche. Maybe try another professional motorcycle racer to see if it will make a difference. In any event, great video content, thanks gents.
I know nothing about bikes,but that bike rider was terribly bad in riding that bike. I like the Porsche a lot but I feel like the bike was let down by its rider.
He's one of the best riders in the world. The H2R is a crazy bike. But also a beast to keep fast . The braking in a bike is really tough. Only one contact patch than try to get it leaned overm.. crazy.. b
@@Drofthing I know, and the editors also knew this. Watching the video it’s hard to see any footage of him actually taking the turn or breaking into the corner. They know his riding is trash.
@@Drofthing these are car guys that make these videos though. Motorcycle guys understand that even a slower bike in the hands of a skilled rider is so much faster. The skill set of riding a motorcycle around a corner is muncher harder to develop than any car guy will understand.
Chris, you're spending too much time trying to turn the bike. You gotta make a sharp turn, square it off and accelerate. Edmunds, you gotta get Josh Herrin or somebody who knows how to turn the bike. This isn't just a drag race. Motorcycle road racers can turn this better.
Chris Moore is a awesome drag racer. The Ninja H2R itself is made for straight line speed. Its wheel base is a bit longer than a regular sport bike which makes it slower to turn. I would like to see a road racer on cheaper street legal liter bike with a tune, exhaust and sticky tires race that 911S.
Chris is a straight line runner, and there is almost no one better for that than him, but in the curve he was going at about 10mh he looks like my grandfather in a wheelchair, for these races you need someone who can grip the curves well, it is not the same drive a motorcycle than a car, even a first-timer in the car can take a turn on this track
That rider is horrible at braking and cornering it's painful to see...get someone like Josh Herrin. That would probably love to do this and can actually ride.
I can predict the Turbo S Light Weight would win, based on handling AND the Nurburgring times. The Plaid Trac Pak did 7min 25 sec The 911 Turbo S (992) 7 min 17 sec. The Plaid's acceleration due to instant torque can warp physics, UNTIL the turns. The 911 turbo is about 900 pounds lighter and in turns it will out G the Plaid Trac Pak, but also transition faster from left to right and visa versa faster because of the physics of the Porsche having a lower moment of inertia (basically lighter is better for multiple turns) though the trak Pak does well for such a heavy car.
@@willnav Perhaps, and it would be really close between the two; but I forgot one more performance measure that could help offset the Plaids acceleration advantage once they both got underway (because off the line, they are tied) Braking. The Porsche still out stops the Plaid Trak Pak's improved brakes. Its almost a 1000 pounds heavier and the Porsche has another advantage with its engine in the back for breaking and weight transfer. The Porsche 911 Turbo wins against virtually anything braking. i agree the Plaid Trak Pak has a chance. U Drags is not a road course circuit.
@@williamthornton5856 Plaid would be close to a 7min flat car if it was able to maintain it's peak power through the whole lap, which it can't. Prepped Plaid's for roadcourse are as fast as GT2RS on some tracks. And this is not a joke.... ua-cam.com/video/A2B3qGB9IQk/v-deo.html ... The guy is one of the fastest 'amateur' driver on the nurburgring, he did a 6min44 BTG with his GT2 RS MR...
Well. How come a Kawasaki Ninja lost to a Porsche ??????? Kawasaki Ninja VS. Porasche 911 Hum. How about instead, a Kawasaki Ninja "H2R" versus a Porsche 911 (992) Turbo S.... OTHERWISE I will just call a Charger Hellcat Redeye a "Charger" and a Ninja H2R just a "Ninja" so Ninja 600, well chicken is chicken, so its the same thing.
Man there’s so much heated comments on the rider. The fact that an F1 car can go around a race track faster than race bikes goes to show 4 wheels are better for acceleration, stopping, cornering and repeat. Cornering Traction is superior on cars.

And to the too much power bs excuse--- the bike has electronics to settle it down. USE THEM. Chris is legend both on and off track. I would've chosen him to rep the Kawi as well. With some practice he would win. Great race. Love the U Drags!!!
It is just amazing how fast the 911 Turbo S is considering it can also be used as a daily driver and isn't made out of carbon fiber.
My man on the bike be taking turns like he in a Semi with an oversized load.
Let's see the car guy drive the bike. 😂 The porsche is like sitting in a library. 2 totally different machines. Good race 👍
Jonathan, if there’s a story behind the Saturn cap I wanna hear it.
😁
Chris had an awesome launch on the first race but braking at the end of the straight and then turning was definitely a handful to execute. I wish they could've given Chris another shot because the potential is there to beat the Porsche. Maybe try another professional motorcycle racer to see if it will make a difference. In any event, great video content, thanks gents.
He turned that bike like a super tanker! C’mon dude, tighten that turn, then power power power!
What a race! The H2R is crazy fast but to loose against the luxury porsche is not bad. Next time tell the driver to turn on AC to full instead of off…
if the biker can’t at least get a knee down in the turn this race means nothing
This runway have some dust in the road this is not Mugello circuit with perfect road conditions.
Chris is an awesome tuner and dragster but he has never cornered a bike in his life 😂
Re-race this time Chris on his all motor stock wheel base gsxr1000. We know he can put the power down with that!
Insane, loved it.
Nope, need a better rider. Get Dani Pedrosa and his KTM from Carwow!
So you think the bike can win with Pedrosa?
@@motlatsikhomari7254 I think he can do much better!
I know nothing about bikes,but that bike rider was terribly bad in riding that bike. I like the Porsche a lot but I feel like the bike was let down by its rider.
He's one of the best riders in the world. The H2R is a crazy bike. But also a beast to keep fast . The braking in a bike is really tough. Only one contact patch than try to get it leaned overm.. crazy.. b
It’s unfortunate they don’t have a track rider on the bike. A straight line racer is missing half the skill set needed to ride that bike :(
A regular backroad rider would do😂. You would think the pavement was wet as slow and wide as he took the turn
@@Drofthing I know, and the editors also knew this. Watching the video it’s hard to see any footage of him actually taking the turn or breaking into the corner. They know his riding is trash.
@@n300zx931 😂😂
@@Drofthing these are car guys that make these videos though. Motorcycle guys understand that even a slower bike in the hands of a skilled rider is so much faster. The skill set of riding a motorcycle around a corner is muncher harder to develop than any car guy will understand.
For cars, this race requires good torque because the U is narrow, if the U is made wider, then the order of the winning cars will also change.
People are complaining about the bike turns but forget that cars brake and turn so much more effectively than bikes
Suggestion
992 turbo s light weight vs mclaten,
Plaid
Chris, you're spending too much time trying to turn the bike. You gotta make a sharp turn, square it off and accelerate.
Edmunds, you gotta get Josh Herrin or somebody who knows how to turn the bike. This isn't just a drag race. Motorcycle road racers can turn this better.
I REALLY ENJOYED THE SHOW GUYS,BUT I REALLY WOULD LIKE TO SEE CHRIS MOORE,RACE HIS TWIN TURBO GSXR 1000,AND HIS HAYABUSA, THAT HSR IS JUST TOO HEAVY❤😊
He won in the straight line. His cornering is trash.
Chris Moore is a awesome drag racer. The Ninja H2R itself is made for straight line speed. Its wheel base is a bit longer than a regular sport bike which makes it slower to turn. I would like to see a road racer on cheaper street legal liter bike with a tune, exhaust and sticky tires race that 911S.
Great video
You killed us
Yes definitely more motorcycles!
Yes, more bike vs. car on U-drags. BMW bike vs BMW car, maybe
That Porsche always consistent on the quarter mile never fails to preforms a wonderful race indeed 👍👍
It is only 10.2s car lol
LOL ! Auh .. Not Really
the launching for the h2r was all over the place especially for that second run but the turning wtf was going on lol
Chris is a straight line runner, and there is almost no one better for that than him, but in the curve he was going at about 10mh he looks like my grandfather in a wheelchair, for these races you need someone who can grip the curves well, it is not the same drive a motorcycle than a car, even a first-timer in the car
can take a turn on this track
That rider is horrible at braking and cornering it's painful to see...get someone like Josh Herrin. That would probably love to do this and can actually ride.
Wow Chris, i know thats a heavy bike but damn you need some time on a 600 around a track lol please 🙏
Can You do Cybertruck tri-motor VS 911 TurboS ? Because ''Cybertruck is faster than 911'' is what some journalists claims 🤣 thanks.
I would suggest a Suzuki bandit 1200 with the Turbo charger for a good challenge. A.k.a., the Bubba bubba Bubba bandit.
Ferrari sf90 next please? 🥴
Super awesome dreg race❤
How about a manual Porsche versus the bike? I suspect a different outcome.
The manual is slower lol.
The 911 Turbo S doesnt come in manual anymore.
Bike is tricky ... No matter how fast bikes are .. hard turn is nightmares
Love to see the turbo s vs a plaid with the track pack.
I can predict the Turbo S Light Weight would win, based on handling AND the Nurburgring times. The Plaid Trac Pak did 7min 25 sec
The 911 Turbo S (992) 7 min 17 sec.
The Plaid's acceleration due to instant torque can warp physics, UNTIL the turns. The 911 turbo is about 900 pounds lighter and in turns it will out G the Plaid Trac Pak, but also transition faster from left to right and visa versa faster because of the physics of the Porsche having a lower moment of inertia (basically lighter is better for multiple turns) though the trak Pak does well for such a heavy car.
@@williamthornton5856 there is only 1 turn and two long straightaways. I think it has a chance.
@@willnav Perhaps, and it would be really close between the two; but I forgot one more performance measure that could help offset the Plaids acceleration advantage once they both got underway (because off the line, they are tied) Braking. The Porsche still out stops the Plaid Trak Pak's improved brakes. Its almost a 1000 pounds heavier and the Porsche has another advantage with its engine in the back for breaking and weight transfer. The Porsche 911 Turbo wins against virtually anything braking. i agree the Plaid Trak Pak has a chance. U Drags is not a road course circuit.
@@williamthornton5856 Plaid would be close to a 7min flat car if it was able to maintain it's peak power through the whole lap, which it can't. Prepped Plaid's for roadcourse are as fast as GT2RS on some tracks. And this is not a joke.... ua-cam.com/video/A2B3qGB9IQk/v-deo.html ... The guy is one of the fastest 'amateur' driver on the nurburgring, he did a 6min44 BTG with his GT2 RS MR...
@williamthornton5856 s plaid will win lol
How about 911 turbo s
Vs tesla model s plaid
H2 maybe isn’t the best bike for handling, but I feel like Chris could have taken the turn a bit faster.
How does the 911 come out the U way ahead of the bike???
Cause the rider only knows how to go straight. He is supposedly a motorcycle drag racer.
@@Crimzon86gaming he did that ninja a disservice
Well. How come a Kawasaki Ninja lost to a Porsche ???????
Kawasaki Ninja
VS.
Porasche 911
Hum.
How about instead,
a Kawasaki Ninja "H2R"
versus a Porsche 911 (992) Turbo S....
OTHERWISE I will just call a Charger Hellcat Redeye a "Charger" and a Ninja H2R just a "Ninja" so Ninja 600, well chicken is chicken, so its the same thing.
@@williamthornton5856 only you understand whatever you just said.
Get Danni Pedrosa on that factory Redbull KTM. He would give any car a race for its money
Next tesla plaid with ceramic brakes will be interesting i think
If u can't launch the bike properly it's impossible to beat 911
Man there’s so much heated comments on the rider. The fact that an F1 car can go around a race track faster than race bikes goes to show 4 wheels are better for acceleration, stopping, cornering and repeat. Cornering Traction is superior on cars.
best part about the porsche is you won't become a meat crayon.
Yes could have done a re-race at the end with the driver in the right lane.
I can't believe that that car is so fast.
The Turbo S is a beast.
Kawasaki H2R is not built for cornering.
This should be standard for comparing vehicles not just straight line
More U Drags!
2024 C8 ZO6 vs Ferrari 812 super-fast or Porsche 911 turbo S vs McLaren 765 LT or Ferrari 488 pista .
