The winglets are cheezy, just my opinion. I just picked up my 2020 today in the new Plus model color now available for the SE. Rode 125km today to just enjoy my new bike. I will get a Tidy Tail and a tail bag but thats it for now bike will remain stock a while before I start throwing more cash at it, lol. You should tell us what you spent or what the true cost would be to the average owner who may not be getting any kickbacks for all the work done, It would be quite a bit. Gotta say I love the bike , it is seriously comfortable for me but I already know one of the first mods for me will be an aftermarket seat I believe, the stock is good but I think I will be getting a Sargent . Love your enthusiasm, keep up the good work!

Good review, one of the best I’ve seen, thank you how tall are you for wind protection purposes? Thank You again

do you have a list of what you dropped to loose that much weight? Exhaust / filters, the fuel vapor collection stuff, and?

Wow the H2 is my dreambike , something i can keep on dreaming to have. Wish i would be able to buy one in my life

I built a 1580cc Busa with a few parts from SAE. Bought a 2019 H2SXSE+ to develop an invention which is piggybacked onto an Extreme Creations Air to water intercooler. Thermoelectric Boost Cooling & Charging System. I generate additional power from the exhaust system heat & use it to refrigerate the intercooler coolant. All on my channel, steaming through the hills with ambient temp & boost temp on the dash, Enjoy the ride. Your build is not really a "build". My next "build" planned is 1635cc Gen3 Busa with a Billet CNC Head. The Ninja's handling is excellent & well set up for touring.

Hello, I have one, exactly the same bike, and I can say that it's amazing. I recommend to prove one. It will change all of your concepts riding bikes. Believe me.

As for the heated grips , maybe on the H2sx it isn’t perfect, but on any bikes, it’s not the problem, when temperatures gets cold it’s not really your hands that comes colds, it’s your fingers and wiles you hold the handlebars it’s kinda inside your hands, when the reality is that the winds hit on the top of your fingers, sure it’s better than nothing, but I bought some heated gloves that works either with rechargeable battery or a plug in things, but having wires hanging everywhere around the bike isn’t exactly perfect and the battery last up to 6/8 hours and takes less than 1 hour to re-charged, and between heated grips and heated gloves it’s really day and night difference

Hey I have a 2018 H2 sx se . I plan on doing the flash , full exhaust, intercooler,

What ram mount did you buy and how did you mount it? Great video!

I would keep the centerstand unless you are doing a lot of track days. Not many bikes have them these days. My previous ZX6E was one of the last centerstand sport bike. You can further lighten the bike with a lithium battery from Shorai or Mirai. Also CMC brake rotors from Brake Tech. They are black and look cool too. Basically carbon brakes for the street.

I’m looking at 2018 too, how much should I budget similar upgrades?

What exhaust do you have? I’m having a hard time finding one . Brocks make one but they are out of stock .

How is the power on your eco-mode? I'm tossing up between this and a KTM 1290. The 1290 sounds fantastic for sport touring until I saw Cycle World's dyno chart. The SA-R/S are neutered to 135 hp and 80 ft-bls of torque. Well my DL1000 V-strom was just too boring for me and the motor in my Aprilia Mille RSV1000R was also ...beh. I went from a 92 GSXR 7/13 which had my respect.

Can someone post a link to a video of a 220whp h2sx accelerating?

How did you all make it past 10 seconds?

Did you put an intercooler on your bike ? And if so who did you go with ?

What brand are those winglets? I like it.

I now own this bike, can you tell me if you removed the tune when you sold it?

I’m buying a 2021 h2 sx se. will I void my warranty if I tune it?

I used to own a 2020 1000sx, which don't get me wrong I really enjoyed but sold to to get a new supermoto (my heart resides with them lol) but back when these came out I remember seeing one on the show room floor. They're starting to become reasonably priced for me at least, probably is I'll have to fly out and have a 2 day ride back. Knowing and being on the N1K comfortably wise how do they compare? I don't daily my bikes but I also don't want to feel like my back is broken after 2 hours or a bit more before a pit stop. Anyone shine some light on it for me?

I love that bike ...it's comfortable it's fast amazing ❤️

Very encouraging to hear the stock exhaust figures with ECU flash. It's a pain in the ass having to swap the exhaust back to OEM for inspection. I won't be raising the redline. I WILL get the Japan 180KPH/111.6MPH removed. I hate that sort of thing.

That is my absolute dream bike. I am a big fan of center stands so I would keep it on the bike. I would love to be able to get one of those as it would replace my concours 14 but I would miss my electric windshield I feel. Other than that the sheer power and design of this bike are near flawless.

Just keep the Connie, and have both machines begging for a spin. I have had my 08 "GTR1400" since '08. I don't think I could ever give up the comfort for the really long hauls. I just did 2500 miles on the V-Strom 650. I missed my reliable, comfortable, rocket ship. My B-King has almost 100 ft lbs torque to the ground and I really don't feel I miss much on the ole, Concours 14.

Sir what is the maximum speed you reached on this motorbike?

how quick can you get to 0- 200mph . 60mph to 160mph time

What size is the Nelson rig?

So, your saying it's a good beginner motorcycle. Sweet!

Also add an intercooler if you want longevity

Hi there! I'm a lucky owner of this beast my2019. It's still 100% stock and I wonder if someone can solve a doubt I have about idle rpm managing: when bike is stopped and the wheels are not in movement idle is at about 1100 rpm (obviously with engine in temp. of exercise) BUT if I move the wheels (for example in a descent track) idle set at about 1500 rpm. I don't know if it's normal or not. I'd like to share an information for everyone interested in mounting a topcase (heretic thing I know). I bought a givi maxia 56 and specific mount rack. Factory say it's not compatible with oem panniers: it's wrong. Rack fits perfectly with side panniers and remain a tolerance of about 0,5 cm between surfaces. It's possible to put a "trio" bags without problems. I had some high speed ride with topcase on and did NOT recognize turbulences and handlebar shimming etc (pilot only) till 260kmh.

How comfortable is the SX on long rides? I’m 6’6” 36 inseam.

Bike has the same type internals with higher compression. The reason they blow is the lack of octane. Add E85 and you get octane and a cooler burning fuel

I traded my zx14 for an H2sxse+ about a year ago. The H2 handles much better, but there are some things I miss from the zx14. Low end power isn't there. Throttle isn't smooth, very on/off jerky. Seat is not as comfortable. I don't think it's really faster than the zx14. All in all, the H2sxse is a better bike, but zx14 is probably a better value.

where is the steering damper ? BMW puts them on even slow bikes like the GS.

i think you have it reversed.... a turbo works off the engine once its running for a bit hence the term "turbo lag"- a super charger implys forced induction... means it spools up first and forces air and fuel into the cylinder... makes power right away!

@78cobra

@@mattymotorcycle1713 you do not know how superchargers or turbo charger work. A turbo does not 'run of the engine' it runs off the exhaust. A supercharger is directly driven off the engine. Turbo has lag because exhaust back pressure between the engine and the turbo must be created, to make it spin. this back pressure is what causes the turbo to spin fast enough to create positive pressure in the intake. A supercharger's speed is directly related to the speed the engine is. Because the supercharger is directly connected to the crank it can not spin at a constant max speed. I.e. if a supercharger creates 20psi at 12,000rpm it is physically impossible for it to create 20 psi at 6,000rpm.... at 6,000rpm it will create half the psi (10psi). This is because the means that is used to spin the supercharger is spinning at half.... because of this it is impossible to have "max boost instantly".

It's a great machine, but has a very ugly face. Kawasaki has forgotten beautiful. So has Yamaha.

Who believes you? I got Maserati with 1300 hp ready 😅
