As we all know, Our Captain Cool is really very fond of Bikes. Mahi Bhai’s enormous love for motorcycles is not hidden from anyone. Throwback back to the days when MS Dhoni started playing cricket and earned some money from it, he bought a second-hand Yamaha RX100 for himself. After becoming one of the most prominent cricketers in the world and achieving success, he bought numerous motorcycles. As of now the count of his motorcycles crossed 100.
Super wheels like Kawasaki Ninja H2, Confederate Hellcat, BSA, and Norton Vintage are some highlights of his garage. His car collection is also equally extravagant with classics such as Hummer H2, GMC Sierra, the first-generation Mitsubishi Pajero, and many more.
Today, in this article we will tell you about MS Dhoni’s Bike Collection and his personal favorites among them.
Glorious Bike Collection of MS Dhoni
Kawasaki Ninja H2
The very first on the list is an exotic – Kawasaki Ninja H2. MS Dhoni was the first person in India to own this bike. The numbers associated with this superbike are astonishing. It gets a 998 cc 4-cylinder engine that benefits from supercharging. The maximum power output stands at 200 hp @ 11000 rpm and the peak torque at 134 Nm @ 10500 rpm. The 2017 model Kawasaki Ninja H2 is on sale in India for Rs. 33.30 lakh.
Confederate X132 Hellcat
Undoubtedly, this is one of the rarest bikes in the world as only 150 exist. MS Dhoni is the only Southeast Asian customer to own one of these astonishing and extravagant machines. Apart from MS Dhoni, Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise, David Beckham, and Ryan Reynolds own this bike. The Hellcat draws power from a 2.2 L V-Twin that churns out 132 hp and 200 Nm. Dhoni also took his bike for a spin at the Buddha International Circuit.
Ninja ZX-14R
MS Dhoni’s everlasting love for bikes proceeds with the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-14R. It gets a 4- cylinder 1441 cc engine that puts out 197.39 bhp of maximum power. It boasts a top speed of 335 km/h! The bike is available in India at Rs. 19.07 lakh. The ZX-14R is the saner of the two Ninjas owned by our captain cool.
Harley Davidson Fatboy
The list of luxurious bikes owned by MS continues with the Harley Davidson Fatboy. This cruiser can be bought in India for a little over 20 lakhs. It comes with a 1690 cc engine that makes 65 bhp. Dhoni has been spotted riding around Ranchi on this one quite a lot of times.
Ducati 1098
The Ducati 1098 has also made space for itself in MS Dhoni’s garage. 1098 was sold from 2007-2008 internationally and was also available in India at that time. It was on sale for around 25-30 lakhs. The 1099 cc engine that powers the bike makes around 160 hp. It was succeeded by the Ducati 1198.
Yamaha RD350
The Yamaha RD350 or Rajdoot has a massive following in India. And like any bike lover, Dhoni is a fan as well. In case you don’t know, the RD350 was the first bike he bought. However, the bike ended up looking like this when it was neglected because of other bikes.
However, Mahi Bhai has now completely restored the bike. Also, this isn’t the only RD350 in his possession.
Suzuki Shogun
Back then, when MS Dhoni was active on social media, he put up a picture on Instagram of a Suzuki Shogun with the caption,
“How many of u agree this was 1 of the most exciting 2stroke single cylinder bikes to ride, need to restore mine quickly.”
Yamaha Thundercat
Perhaps, this is one of the most popular sports tourers of its time. The Yamaha Thundercat or YZF600R was manufactured between 1996 and 2007. It came with a 599-cc engine that made around 88 bhp. Have a look at MS Dhoni’s throwback picture posing with his Yamaha Thundercat and Kawasaki Ninja ZX-14R.
BSA Goldstar
Next in MS Dhoni’s bike collection is the BSA Goldstar. It was one of the first British Motorcycles to breach the 100 km/h mark. It draws power from a 500cc engine. Here is a picture of MS Dhoni astride his BSA Goldstar.
Norton Jubilee 250
The second classic vintage bike in MS Dhoni’s Bikes collection is the Norton Jubilee 250 and as the name suggests, it draws power from a 250cc engine.
