What happens when you put a Porsche 911 Turbo S, tuned to a monstrous 1,100 horsepower, up against two of the most iconic bikes in the world? That’s exactly what the team at Officially Gassed set out to find in a drag race that’s all about speed, power, and bragging rights. On four wheels, you’ve got the Porsche 911 Turbo S—a car so dialed in, it’s practically built for the strip. Facing off are two legends on two wheels: the Kawasaki Ninja H2 and the Suzuki Hayabusa. The Ninja H2, a 2016 model, is no slouch with its supercharged 1,000cc engine pushing 330 hp and loaded with drag-specific tweaks. Then there’s the 2022 Hayabusa, a speed demon cranking out 400 hp. It’s earned its nickname, the “king of speed,” for good reason. Three machines. One strip. No excuses. This race is more than numbers—it’s about who has what it takes to cross the finish line first. Launches, Speed, and ResultsThe Kawasaki Ninja H2 was relentless. Every time the Porsche 911 Turbo S shot off the line, the Ninja’s explosive power brought it roaring back, closing the gap just as they reached the finish. Then there was the Suzuki Hayabusa—fast, wild, and a little unpredictable. Halfway through the run, its front wheel lifted clean off the ground, forcing the rider to wrestle for control. Rolling start races focused purely on speed, and this is where the bikes took charge. The Ninja H2 was ridiculous—it surged from 100 to 200 km/h in just 3.11 seconds, leaving the Porsche chasing at 3.69 seconds. The Hayabusa was fast—3.99 seconds fast—but keeping that front wheel down was a whole different story. Mid-run, it popped up like the bike was trying to take off, leaving the rider fighting to keep it steady. When the drag races started, the Porsche hit back hard. It gripped the tarmac and shot off the line like a rocket. In just 2.2 seconds, it hit 60 mph, the all-wheel drive biting into the tarmac like glue. The Ninja H2 wasn’t far behind, gaining speed and closing the gap, but the Porsche held its ground all the way to the finish. Then came the real test—the quarter-mile runs. This was Porsche territory. In the first race, the Turbo S powered through, finishing three car lengths ahead of the Ninja H2. The Hayabusa trailed close behind. The second race looked almost identical. The Porsche, with its 1,100 horsepower and razor-sharp engineering, was just too much to beat off the line. The final numbers painted the full picture. The Porsche 911 Turbo S ran the quarter-mile in 9.43 seconds at 154 mph, hitting 60 mph in a ridiculous 2.22 seconds. The Kawasaki Ninja H2 wasn’t far off, clocking 9.54 seconds at 168 mph with a 0-60 time of 2.98 seconds. The Suzuki Hayabusa, wild as ever, completed its run in 9.9 seconds at 156 mph, hitting 60 mph in 3.06 seconds. The Porsche had one clear advantage: its traction. It ruled the launches. But the bikes? They owned the top-end speed. It wasn’t just about winning—it was about watching three incredible machines push each other to the edge of what’s possible. Source: Officially Gassed
