The quest for alternative propulsion methods in motorcycles has lagged behind their four-wheeled counterparts, but innovation in this sector is not standing still. While electric motorcycles are becoming increasingly common, hydrogen-powered bikes have remained a rarity that was until now. Kawasaki, a name known for high-performance motorcycles, has taken a significant leap forward with its announcement of a hydrogen-powered bike based on the revered Ninja H2. Now in the past I have mase a video on this, but back then it was all talk, now they have build the real thing
You see Kawasaki’s foray into hydrogen-powered motorcycles began quietly behind closed doors in March of last year. The company’s engineers embarked on an ambitious project to transform the Ninja H2, a well-known high-performance model, into a hydrogen-fueled machine. By the start of the new year, Kawasaki had commenced testing the modified motorcycle. The culmination of this effort was showcased on July 20 at the Suzuka Circuit in Japan, where the hydrogen-powered Ninja made its public debut.

Kawasaki has always looked to topple it's rivals, interesting how they are trying out H2, it's in its name! Ninja H2, right?
Cheers Chris 👍💪✌
As always, a good video. Thank You.
I think, as a Electro engineer, this will be the "winner", at the end of the CO-race.
Why: Well, just think about the amount of cable and transformers, just to mention some things needed, for these charging stations.
The investments in infrastructure, are astronomic!
To say least.
These engines need, no such massive investments, not in that monstrous amounts of money.
A station for hydrogen, can be implemented with a much smaller investment, and operate with smaller "adjustments" in the electric grid.
And with wind and solar power. Depending of the location, maybe with more/other, green options.
Correct me, if I am wrong, or You have a better solution.

I'm glad that automakers are trying different things and innovations to combustion, rather than just all mindlessly going one direction because it's all the talk. Lithium won't be the future it's just a step to get there. There's also fusion and other things that are getting better. Idc I just want NOIZZE.
Hydrogen makes EVEN LESS sense in bikes, basically zero. Only synthetic fuel and battery electric makes sense. Storing hydrogen is just so impractical, the tanks are massive and the range is poor. I wonder how clean diesels can be with synthetic fuel.🤔
Diesels don't really need efuel, they can run on straight and used cooking oil.
Might be a good choice for container ships.
