Sports motorcycles have something enigmatic, like acceleration, laser-like precise handling, minimalistic momentum, agility, etc.
Since the beginning, motorcycle brands have competed in the consumer market and on professional racing tracks.
Regardless of aesthetics, marketing, and brand equity, superbike engineering’s true potential can only be displayed on tracks.
Thanks to the premier class of motorcycle racing events like MotoGPWorldSBK, and road racing events like the Isle of Man TT for showing us what these modern engineering marvels can do if throttled up freely.
But speed comes at a price; these motorcycles are also some of the costliest and potentially dangerous vehicles you can buy.
If you are a biker by heart and afford them or want to know more, here is the list of the top 10 fastest bikes in the world in 2024:

Suzuki’s flagship, the big daddy Hayabusa, is probably the most popular bike globally that is still in production in 2024.
Hayabusa also has been the fastest production motorcycle for a long time before Suzuki’s rival launched our top two-speed bikes.
Hayabusa’s twin headlamps are stacked vertically, and that’s how you instantly recognize the boss of superbikes on the streets.
Suzuki has updated it for the 2023 model year with three new colorways and no mechanical changes.

This means that all-electronic power is used at its best, with unrelenting speed and torque in a package that always delivers huge benefits, efficiency, and economic and environmental efficiency.
Perhaps the first to define the electric revolution.

1. Kawasaki Ninja H2R

Which is the fastest bike in the world?
Kawasaki Ninja H2R is the fastest motorcycle in the world 2024

Top speed: 249 mph (400 km/h)

Engine: 998cc, Liquid-Cooled, 4-Stroke In-Line Four with Supercharger, DOHC, 16-Valves
Price: $55,000 (Limited to some countries)

Street legal H2:

Top speed: 209.44 mph (337 km/h), held by rider Shigeru Yamashita at Bonneville Speedway
Acceleration (0-60 mph): 2.6s
Engine: Engine: 998cc, 4-stroke, 4-cylinder, DOHC, 4-valve, liquid-cooled, supercharged
Price: $25,000

Kawasaki Ninja H2R is the fastest bike in the world in 2024, holding the speed record of reaching the speed of 400kmph (250mph) in record-breaking 26 seconds.
The combined lightweight and powerful engine of the track-only variant Kawasaki is the pinnacle of the engineering marvel that the world hasn’t seen before.
Because of the overwhelming power, this liter-class model was a purely track-only motorcycle, not legal on public roads, and is the only bike to get supercharging technology on track. 
Thankfully, there is a street-legal variant, Kawasaki Ninja H2, and a highly rigid, lightweight CFRP trim, Ninja H2 Carbon.
Considering legality, Kawasaki Ninja H2 is the fastest street-legal motorcycle you could own.
But even so, Ninja H2R is 50 percent powerful and has a 5mm shorter wheelbase than the regular street-legal H2, which produces 197BHP of power. 
It looks like an astonishing piece of a motorcycle museum; H2R’s devilish engine produces over 310 horsepower.

However, there is an honorable mention, You guessed it right, MTT Turbine Superbike Y2K
We did not include it as the world’s no. 1 bike because of street legality, usage issues, and factual grounds.
This motorcycle is equipped with a helicopter jet turboshaft engine capable of producing astonishing 420HP power with a top speed of 250 mph
It can outperform any of the above top 10 bikes in world.
It can work with any thick fuel like kerosene, diesel & all biofuels as it is a turbine jet engine.
But you might question,
How fast can a motorcycle go?
Considering the fastest land-speed record ever achieved by a two-wheeler, the world record goes to The TOP 1 Ack Attack.
A specially built land-speed streamliner motorcycle was recorded as the fastest motorcycle in March 2013, which officially recorded a top speed of 634.217 kph (394.084 mph).

    1. because is tecnologe of BMW you now BMW is most popular brand of Cares and now is most brand of Bikes Like…S1000RR

      S1000RR IS MY FAVORITE BIKE

      KAWASAKI NINJA H2 NORMAL NOT H2R KAWASAKI H2 DRY WEIGHT IS 240 KG IS NOT FOE TRACK BECAUSE WHEN YOU TRY TO MOVE THE HANDEL IS NOT EASY IS NOT FOR TRACK

      1:KAWASAKI NINJA H2R IS (PRODUCTION) FASTEST BIKE IN THE WORLD….HE HAVE 310 HP

      2:BMW S1000RR IS SECOND FASTEST (PRODUCTION) BIKE IN THE WORLD… HE HAVE 204 HP

    1. If you’ll allow me a moment back in 1966/’67, I was with Kawasaki. We came with the “Mach lll”, a
      3 cylinder, 500cc, 2 stroke that cleaned all that came. Up at Reno, which is close to 5000 feet elevation, we took it thru thru clocks at 143. Consider, & that was last Sunday. LOL

  1. The H2R is not street legal… the H2 is. The top speeds listed on these bikes seems very arbitrary. A number of them seem to be based on the self-regulation top speed of 300 kph/186 mph, and a number of them don’t. It’s not really comparing apples with apples…

    1. Still, Kawasaki H2R, overall but if you want to know about pure racing motorcycle,
      Ducati Desmosedici is the fastest MotoGP motorcycle with a top speed record of 356.7 km/h (221.6 mph)

  2. Honda CBR1100XX challenged Ninjas as the world’s fastest production motorcycle. This beast also inspired Suzuki to introduce Hayabusa

  3. In 1958 (AD) I bot a 203cc, single ohc, blue Ducati. I raced it at 5 West Coast tracks of which only Laguna Seca is left. The old “Riverside, Goleta, Colton, Stockton, airport, & “I forgot”, are gone. They were all great because of the guys and Mary Magee that I raced against. The Ducati, down the back straight at Riverside went thru the clocks at nearly 75 mph. After 3 yrs we had it up to 95/96 or 97 depending on who you talked with, LOL.
