Kawasaki Ninja 1100SX SE vs Yamaha Tracer 9

The Kawasaki Ninja 1100SX SE (2026) and the Yamaha Tracer 9 (2025) 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 Ninja 1100SX SE is a touring bike with 1,099 cc, 134.1 hp and unlisted weight; the Yamaha Tracer 9 is a touring bike with 890 cc, 117.3 hp and 219 kg. Power-to-weight with the rider: 409.9 hp/ton versus 399.1 hp/ton. On this measure the Kawasaki Ninja 1100SX SE is 3% ahead.

In the simulation the Kawasaki Ninja 1100SX SE covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 3.30 s and the Yamaha Tracer 9 in 2.95 s; the Yamaha Tracer 9 is quicker by 0.35 s. In the 100-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 41.0 m for the Kawasaki Ninja 1100SX SE (with ABS) and 45.0 m for the Yamaha Tracer 9 (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS). The Kawasaki Ninja 1100SX SE stops 4.1 m shorter. Calculated top speed: 219 km/h (estimated from power and drag) versus 215 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 class-average calibration (no accepted model-specific road test) for the Kawasaki Ninja 1100SX SE and model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for the Yamaha Tracer 9. 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.
