If straight-line speed is your priority, the Ninja 1100SX takes the lead. With 19 HP more than the Tracer 9, it offers a more spirited ride that will be noticeable on highway overtakes or track days. When it comes to agility, the Tracer 9 has a clear advantage. Weighing in 16kg less than the Ninja 1100SX, it will feel significantly easier to handle in low-speed traffic, parking maneuvers, and twisty corners. Bottom Line: It's a close call. Choose the 1100sx if you prefer its specific styling and ergonomics, or the tracer9 if you want the alternative brand character.
