Kawasaki Ninja H2 and H2R prices

Kawasaki is charging a hefty £22,000 in the UK for its new street-legal Ninja H2. That’s a lot of money for a motorcycle, but apparently most of the bikes in the initial batch have already found customers.

As announced at the recent EICMA show in Milan, the Ninja H2’s specification includes KYB suspension components, an Öhlins electronic steering damper and a supercharged 998 cc engine which produces up to 207 bhp (154 kW / 210 PS) thanks partly to ram air induction. It’s due to arrive at dealers next March.

Even more expensive is the circuit-only Ninja H2R. A staggering price tag of £41,000 buys numerous enhancements, such as carbon fibre bodywork that features aerodynamic appendages to keep things stable at speed.

And the ‘R’ version should be much quicker than the regular Ninja H2 courtesy of a seriously upgraded motor. Output is increased to 305 bhp (228 kW / 310 PS) – or 321 bhp (240 kW / 326 PS) with ram air – while peak torque is 165 Nm (121 lb/ft). Completing the package are paddock stands for each wheel and a pair of tyre warmers.

‘New’ Jensen Interceptor

There’s something very retro-chic about using a classic car as a daily driver, but it’s an activity that comes with the permanent risk that aged mechanicals might expire at any time. Hence the concept of regeneration by substituting ancient components with fresh replacements. Handling, brakes and reliability are all dramatically improved, while the outward appearance remains unmolested. Various models have received this treatment in recent years, including numerous Jaguars and even the Shelby G.T.500CR . Now it’s the turn of the Jensen Interceptor, a car originally built during the late 1960s and early 1970s. Jensen International Automotive , based in Thame, Oxfordshire, has just delivered the first of its Interceptor R models. And, with an annual production figure of 18 cars, it’s a product that will be very exclusive. In a process lasting around five months, each Interceptor R is totally rebuilt from a suitable donor car.
