circuit in Japan<\/h2>\n<p>The first tests with the Kawasaki Ninja H2 Hydrogen have been done on Japan&#8217;s Autopolis circuit.<br \/>\nThe 998cc four-cylinder engine block is mechanically almost identical to the version that burns gasoline.<br \/>\nSo yes, the supercharger has been retained, which therefore means the block can deliver serious performance.<br \/>\nOn gasoline, the Supercharged Ninja H2 produces 200 hp and in R version even 310 hp.   <\/p>\n<div class=\"galery shuffle galery-27978\">\n<figure>\n\t\t\t<a
