As someone who has closely followed the Indian superbike market for years, Kawasaki’s presence has always stood out for one simple reason—uncompromised performance. The Japanese manufacturer has consistently pushed the boundaries of speed, engineering, and rider-focused technology. From the world’s first supercharged production motorcycle to race-bred machines inspired by WorldSBK, Kawasaki offers Indian enthusiasts access to some of the most extreme motorcycles legally available on our roads.
What makes Kawasaki particularly special in India is the availability of its flagship and track-honed models without heavy dilution. If you have the budget and the skill, Team Green gives you the keys to machines that are genuinely capable of redefining your perception of speed. Below is a carefully curated list of the six fastest Kawasaki motorcycles you can buy in India in 2026.
