Yamaha does not publish a horsepower figure for the 2025 YZF-R1 in the United States. The only official R1 power rating available is for the 2024 model sold in Europe: 147.1 kW (200.0 PS) at 13,500 rpm, which is about 197 mechanical hp. Measured against that reference, the clearest verified examples are two Kawasaki Ninja models and one Ducati Panigale V4 R, but the margins and the configurations differ enough that a simple ranking would mislead. This article covers what can be confirmed and where the evidence stops.
What Yamaha publishes for the 2025 R1
Yamaha’s U.S. specification page for the 2025 YZF-R1 lists a 998cc liquid-cooled inline-four, a 448 lb wet weight, and Bridgestone Battlax Racing Street RS11F and RS11R tyres. Its specification table contains no power figure.
The nearest official number comes from Yamaha Motor Europe’s R1 page, which lists a maximum power of 147.1 kW (200.0 PS) at 13,500 rpm for the 2024 model. That rating is for a different model year and market, so it should be used only as a reference point.
Two conversions matter when comparing it with American figures:

Power figures side by side
The table below uses only figures that manufacturers have published with a model year, market and speed. Where a comparable value is not stated, the table says so.
| Motorcycle | Published maximum power | Speed | Market and year | Configuration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Yamaha YZF-R1 | 200.0 PS (147.1 kW), about 197 hp | 13,500 rpm | Europe, 2024 (Yamaha Motor Europe) | Standard road model |
| Yamaha YZF-R1 | Not stated | Not stated | U.S., 2025 (Yamaha U.S. specification page) | Standard road model |
| Ducati Panigale V4 R | 207 hp | 13,500 rpm | U.S., 2025 (Ducati USA) | Standard road specification |
| Ducati Panigale V4 R | 237 hp | 15,500 rpm | U.S., 2025 (Ducati USA) | Full racing exhaust, not homologated for public roads |
| Ducati Panigale V4 R | Up to 240.5 hp | Not stated | U.S., 2025 (Ducati USA) | Closed course, complete racing exhaust and dedicated Shell oil |
| Kawasaki Ninja H2 Carbon ABS | 240 hp | 11,500 rpm | U.S., 2025 (Kawasaki Motors Corp., U.S.A.) | Road model |

Models that exceed the R1 reference
Kawasaki Ninja H2 Carbon ABS: the clearest road-going example
Kawasaki lists the 2025 H2 Carbon ABS at 240 hp at 11,500 rpm. That is about 43 hp above the converted R1 reference. Because the two figures come from different manufacturers, years and markets, the gap is best read as a strong indication rather than a measured head-to-head result. Kawasaki’s rating is a manufacturer specification; the source material does not state the test method behind it.

Ducati Panigale V4 R: a narrow margin on the road
Ducati’s 2025 U.S. page gives 207 hp at 13,500 rpm for the standard road specification. That is roughly 10 hp above the converted R1 reference. The margin is small, and the two ratings come from different years and markets, so the Ducati figure is higher on paper but not conclusively more powerful in real use.
Ducati also publishes higher numbers for the same motorcycle with racing equipment. Those are not road figures and should not be compared with the R1’s rating. Ducati states that the full racing exhaust is intended for closed-course use and that public-road operation is prohibited by law.

Kawasaki Ninja H2R ABS: closed-course only
Kawasaki’s 2025 specification for the H2R ABS lists 322 hp at 14,000 rpm. The H2R is a closed-course machine and is not a road-legal alternative to the R1. It is included because it has the highest verified figure in this group, but it belongs in a separate category from road motorcycles.

Two of the Ducati numbers, 237 hp and up to 240.5 hp, depend on a racing exhaust and, in the top case, dedicated Shell oil. Both are closed-course figures. A reader comparing motorcycles for road use should use the 207 hp standard rating for the Panigale V4 R and ignore the higher figures entirely.

Models without a usable power figure
BMW’s UK technical-data page for the M 1000 RR gives a maximum speed of 314 km/h. The page excerpt available for this article does not establish the engine’s power output, so the M 1000 RR cannot be placed in this comparison. Top speed is not a substitute for power, and maximum speed depends on gearing, aerodynamics and rider weight as well as engine output.
How to read these numbers
- Check the model year and market. The only R1 figure is for the 2024 European bike, while the Kawasaki and Ducati figures are 2025 U.S. ratings.
- Keep PS and hp separate. A PS figure is about 1.4 percent lower than the same number in hp.
- Separate road ratings from closed-course ratings. The H2R and the higher Ducati figures are not comparable with the R1’s road reference.
- Note the engine speed. Peak power points differ: 13,500 rpm for the R1 and Panigale V4 R, 11,500 rpm for the H2 Carbon, and 14,000 rpm for the H2R.
- Do not assume a common test method. The manufacturer figures reviewed here do not state one shared measurement standard, so they should not be treated as dynamometer results taken under identical conditions.
What this list does not yet cover
The title refers to ten motorcycles. This article can verify three models above the R1 reference, plus the Ducati configurations already described. Manufacturer power figures for the other seven motorcycles have not been confirmed, so they are not named here. Any claim that a motorcycle out-powers the 2025 R1 needs a published power figure for the same model year and market, and that figure is not available for most of the bikes that would normally fill such a list.

As it stands, the Kawasaki Ninja H2 Carbon ABS at 240 hp is the clearest road-going example above the R1 reference, while the Ducati Panigale V4 R at 207 hp is only marginally higher. The H2R is faster on paper, but it is a closed-course machine.
