5 - Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R ABS
Here's a 197kg superbike (all tanks full) motivated by a 200-horsepower, 4-cylinder engine with ram air intake. While wheelie control and traction control (S-KRTC) give you the impression of harnessing less power than you actually do, the ZX-10R ABS still achieves that celebrated 1:1 power-to-weight ratio (imagine a compact car that would generate 1,250 hp at 14,000 rpm!). Overall, this Ninja clearly is the safest, friendliest, most advanced, and highest-performing Japanese superbike on the market.
