It has lower power to weight ratio though, while the CBR has higher engine power due to it being 471cc compared to the Ninja's 451 it gets defeated by the Ninja overall on the power to weight ratio. Ninja is only 173kg and the CBR is 191kg which weighs like R1

More CC's does not equate to more power. The Kawasaki engine is better than the CBR's in terms of raw performance. The Ninja 500 is better for the performance rider, CBR 500R better for the older rider who wants fuel economy and does touring.@@johnmichaelparedes7987

Honda went for a bigger bike so naturally heavier, that has it's pros and cons. A bike is not measured in just acceleration numbers.
