Hyper sport


Hyper sport bikes are very large displacement sport bikes with a strong emphasis on top speed and acceleration. These large displacement engines are usually sized around 1100 cc to 1400 cc. Hyper sport bikes are bigger and heavier than super bikes with wet weights generally being close to 500 lb. The increased weight compromises race track capabilities in favor of stability at very high speeds that can reach 180 mph. This compromise also allows manufacturers to design slightly more comfortable rider ergonomics.


Examples include the Honda CBR1100XX, Kawasaki Ninja ZX-14, and Suzuki GSX1300R.
