Kawasaki Eliminator 500 vs Kawasaki Ninja 1100SX SE

The Kawasaki Eliminator 500 (2026) 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 Kawasaki Eliminator 500 is a cruiser with 451 cc, 44.8 hp and 176 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: 178.4 hp/ton versus 409.9 hp/ton. On this measure the Kawasaki Ninja 1100SX SE is 130% ahead.

In the simulation the Kawasaki Eliminator 500 covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 4.66 s and the Kawasaki Ninja 1100SX SE in 3.30 s; the Kawasaki Ninja 1100SX SE is quicker by 1.36 s. In the 100-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 44.7 m for the Kawasaki Eliminator 500 (with ABS) and 41.0 m for the Kawasaki Ninja 1100SX SE (with ABS). The Kawasaki Ninja 1100SX SE stops 3.7 m shorter. Calculated top speed: 163 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 Kawasaki Eliminator 500 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.
