Husqvarna FE 450 vs Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R

The Husqvarna FE 450 (2025) and the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R (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 Husqvarna FE 450 is a enduro bike with 450 cc, unlisted power and unlisted weight; the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R is a sport bike with 998 cc, 193.1 hp and 209 kg. Power-to-weight with the rider: no data versus 680.0 hp/ton.

In the simulation the Husqvarna FE 450 covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 4.49 s and the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R in 3.16 s; the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R is quicker by 1.34 s. In the 100-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 51.5 m for the Husqvarna FE 450 (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS) and 36.4 m for the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R (with ABS). The Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R stops 15.0 m shorter. Calculated top speed: 151 km/h (estimated from power and drag) versus 286 km/h (manufacturer claim).

All values are an estimated simulation, not road-test measurements. Technical data comes from the sources listed below; the model uses class-average calibration (no accepted model-specific road test) for the Husqvarna FE 450 and model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R. Missing manufacturer data (power, torque, 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.
