BMW S 1000 RR vs Kawasaki Ninja 1100SX SE

The BMW S 1000 RR (2025) and the Kawasaki Ninja 1100SX SE (2026) are compared with the same Moto Kıyas physics model under identical conditions: flat dry asphalt, no wind, a 75 kg rider and no passenger. The BMW S 1000 RR is a sport bike with 999 cc, 206.5 hp and 198 kg; the Kawasaki Ninja 1100SX SE is a touring bike with 1,099 cc, 134.1 hp and unlisted weight. Power-to-weight with the rider: 756.5 hp/ton versus 409.9 hp/ton. On this measure the BMW S 1000 RR is 85% ahead.

In the simulation the BMW S 1000 RR covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 2.84 s and the Kawasaki Ninja 1100SX SE in 3.30 s; the BMW S 1000 RR is quicker by 0.47 s. In the 100-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 36.4 m for the BMW S 1000 RR (with ABS) and 41.0 m for the Kawasaki Ninja 1100SX SE (with ABS). The BMW S 1000 RR stops 4.6 m shorter. Calculated top speed: 287 km/h (manufacturer claim) versus 219 km/h (estimated from power and drag).

All values are an estimated simulation, not road-test measurements. Technical data comes from the sources listed below; the model uses model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for the BMW S 1000 RR and class-average calibration (no accepted model-specific road test) for the Kawasaki Ninja 1100SX SE. Missing manufacturer data (weight) is estimated by class regression, not measured. Open the interactive app (currently in Turkish) to watch the run side by side and change the load.
