What resonates the most is where we are today. To have a bike that can be blisteringly fast, yet comfortable, safe, AND reliable is nothing short of amazing. A few out there are also close, but none with the all-round performance envelope of this piece of wonderment! Thanks for a GREAT, real-world review!

A mate of mine has one of these. Now he's a tall fit lad. Drags knees Everywhere on this bike, track days, rips canyons apart on it. That is one heck of a perfect bike! Ps. Great vid! 10/10

Brilliant as always Chris… I’ve got a 2019 H2SXSE, she’s been to the Pyrenees and the Picos, two up, fully luggage’d up and just gets the job done, no fuss, no complaints, just pure enjoyment. The engine in my view is a masterpiece and very addictive… I’ve had sports bikes, Busa’s etc and I can honestly say that this is such an exciting and capable motorcycle and really is such a rewarding bit of Kawasaki wizardry👌🏽👍🏽

@@majordelays4909 Hello mate, to be honest, there’s no comparison! The 1000SX is a brilliant bike, but the H21000SX is amazing… I tried several one litre bikes to do the job I wanted to do, the moment I went up the road on the H2, that was it, order me one😉👍🏽 I’ve had it nearly 5 years now and it still blows me away with its capabilities… Go and try one, there’s nothing else like it on the market.

That super charger noise sounds like something out of the Jetsons 😂

Chris you nailed this video man. Great to see you out in Wales, in the wet having fun! More bike reviews need to be like this! Sunny Spain is great and all but, we live in the UK where is pisses down most of the time 😂

Absolutely loved this video, it is by far the best one done about the H2 sx se, you did everything. Thank you. And the smile on your face when taking about it, says it all 😊👍👍

Love mine, I finally figured out Sygic GPS on the integrated screen. The biggest win on this bike is sitting bolt upright on the boring sections with the adaptive cruise doing the pace for you. Yes its heavy but it works for you by steam rolling over all the bumps and letting the suspension flatten them rather than upset the bike it has so much mass that it stays stable. It allows me to travel hours away to the mountain roads and ride all day and then head for home like a billionaire on his private jet. I don't find it all that attractive its looks are growing on me due to its ability to make each ride a delight. Add self cancelling turn signals. Add simple knob or tool path to adjust headlight vertical aim without fuss and you address my issues.

Great review as always Chris. Thank you! Hands down you are the best, most humble and honest reviewer. Plus you always make me giggle with you. 👍😎🇦🇺

I can hear Chris talk about bikes all day long hahaha... I dunno, many can talk about bikes but there's just something about him that makes it enjoyable to watch the review. keep it up!

Excellent video. Lots of fun to watch and it’s extremely informative. 👍🏾

Happy New Year! Brother. Thanks for sharing the experiences with us. Good stuff as always.

Well what a refreshing & down to earth review containing all anyone could need to know about the bike ! Well done sir.

Great video content as usual Chris. More in-depth/wider ranging than other bike reviews👍

So happy i bought one, looks, motor, handling and tech is just brilliant!

One of the best motorcycle reviews Ive seen

Amazing bit of kit. The electronics are absolutely amazing. The kind of bike I could live with..

Brilliant video Chris and thank you so much for shooting it on a wet day in the UK 👍 Whilst we all dream of touring distant shores in the sunshine, your video is the reality of riding in dear ole Blighty for a good 5 months of the year 😉 Being blessed with one of these incredible machines, may I just say that you are spot on🤗 There's nothing that I disagree with and seeing the maps working on the dashboard, I really must get my arse into gear and download the app 👍👍 So many thanks once again Chris, please keep on making your fantastic videos 🙏 Take care, all the best Russ

Cracking review Chris and in proper British weather as well. Lovely to hear that chirp of the supercharger on the video. Looks like a brilliant all-rounder for fun and touring, expensive up front, but you are getting an amazing engine, reliability and a lot of tech. More sensible prices for new’ish ‘22 models out there.

Absolutely loved this, iv been looking at these for a while now - i really like the look of them for a start and then the fact they are actually a bit of a "do-it-all" type of machine and yes granted you are compromising at both ends of the scale but thats what a sports tourer is/should be for me... i spend all day out riding my zx7r or 918 fireblade anyway and im fine the next day but id not fancy going away on a long riding weekend on them for instance, im even more keen now!

Killer review' I fell in love at 1st ride

Excellent and fair review Chris all I can say is Wow what a machine a brilliant allrounder which is very difficult to achieve. Back in the day….1994 I had a Honda CBR 1000F a similar bike back then without the tech - happy days 😊

A good sports tourer should get you and your luggage to the Alps today, ride the passes with the sports bikes tomorrow, before returning home the day after. All with a big smile on your face. Nothing else can do that anywhere near as well as the H2 SX as you have very nicely shown. Great review!

Thee best motorcycling journalist out there. Articulate, funny and very knowledgable . Excellent review. There are an awful lot of KZreadrs out there that need to watch Chris's videos to get some tips !

Appreciate all yalls hard work over in the land of Texas, lol .... Happy New Year !

Really great review Chris and a great analysis, fully agree. It's a fantastic bike, especially the 2022/23. Currently own a 2020 & just love it. Its really great:) once flashed they even offer more but bags of power as is stock. Love the 750 triple, had the honor of riding one back in the day many times!! How far we have come

Brilliant review. Defo a bike I would like in the future when they come down in price a bit . For now my ZZR1400 does a great job.

10.02 that whistle...wow... awesome review...

You just sold me this bike. Great review!

I couldn't think of a better ride to get to a Teddy Bears picnic no matter where🏍 🐻! From Sunny Perth Au loved the review guys and roll 23 ✊

I’m on my 2nd, now the SE plus with brembo’s and the semi-active suspension….oh and de-cat, filter & rolling road map of 255bhp (did 19k miles on my old bike with the same set-up)which transforms the bike to exactly what it always should have been! Very smooth throughout the range and blisteringly fast….Superbikes goodbye 😉👌🏻

Great review, as always. 👍

Utterly amazing. My last bike was a 2016 BMW K1600 and I thought that was a fully loaded luxury touring maching. If I was still riding today, I would definitely select purchasing this Ninja H2 SX SE. Suzuki's SE package makes the H2 SX wonderful for daily riding.

Brilliant video Chris. I also like the content you and Mat Watson get up to. Much as I am perhaps a bit more of a car guy, I always want the bike to win the Carwow drag races!!

Hands free?!! You lovely mad man!! Great review!

Great video Chris, I had a h2sx for 3years, I had a z1000sx before that, the z1000sx is more comfortable with better usable everyday power,I loved the h2sx amazing power but it really is too much for our roads,also you do have a lot of weight on your wrists and after 3years of ownership I traded in for a versus 1000s,less power but 120bhp is enough and the comfort is brilliant, I'm glad I owned an h2sx it's a great bike I looked at getting the latest model but decided to get the versys, definitely not as flash but it's a bike I feel is more usable for me👍

What an amazing video. So much great information all in one spot. Kudos. I feel like not many people go out of their way to review the H2 SX SE lol

I have one and the weight is felt in the agility general of the bike because it will never be at the level of a pure sports bike. On the other hand, it offers incredible stability in curves. To do this, simply fit sports tires more than the original ones.

Great review ❤

Great video Chris. Would be great to see a review of the Ariel Ace, just ordered a Black Edition

I've got the silver and black one, on a centerstand in the middle of the road picture of one on my laptop, spend way too much time looking at that picture. Had a 75 h2 with chambers and other farkles, love that bike. Want the SX SE in my garage. Great review.

I have the grand dad bike, zed1200. 2004 26k miles, great sport turing bike, kaw has been knocking it out of the park for years.

My dad bought this bike this past summer. For a sport tourer idk that there is anything better. With all the electronics and comforts, you could really do crazy miles on this and still have fun. He can always ride my smc r if he wants something lighter though 🤣

I love the roads around Llyn Brianne and the Devil's Staircase, although I just plod around them on my Street Scrambler. :-)

I’m fully aware the H2 SX exists but I have never wanted one… until now. Chris has done an excellent job of why this bike makes sense and why you need one. Will I buy one? No. I owned a ZZR1200 in the past and that was plenty. But anybody considering buying or on the fence about it, well, they’ve just been convinced.

Cant wait for the greenlaning vid!! H2-Oh-sh*t!

Im have the 2019 H2SX model and just bought an 2022 SMCR, best of both worlds.......

Great review, really enjoyed it. The TFT is really fantastic, safety options, very good deed by Kawa. I own a new Goldwing and its a shame on Honda not having the same electronics as this one. Honda is late in this game, don't know why. I hear that 24 GW will have it all. This bike looks so sleek and just right. I just don't know if I can go back to forward leaning again. The Goldwing got me spoiled heavily. I would buy the Kawa before the BMW RT.

Good review mate!

For someone who was not into sports bikes, or track days, the H2 SX SE would be a blast. It really would do everything they wanted. I had a bike that was often quoted as being a bit boring. However I never found it boring and it blew my socks off. Just being on a bike is perfect for me. Even riding at 20mph down a high street, and it's still a perfect experience. (Like you said on your Kwak Z900 RS video, "Bikes are amazing".) Hence have never seen the attraction for sports bikes, since they are also less comfortable.

Great review Chris, not shore if I'm gonna buy one, have a 2014 zzr1400 PS with low mileage and love that one to, difficult 🤔

hearing that flutter out there on the track reminded me of a Star Wars spaceship coming in to land.

Excellent review as always. Must admit do love the bike . It's quite hard getting a bike to do everything as so many are just single purpose and mostly pants 2 up. And getting very expensive to . Would be nice to have an old zzr11 colours from 90s as not a Kawasaki green fan or just boring black. Shame Triumph or Ducati don't do this style of bike.

Love it. Wish I could afford it

Wonder how the super duke GT stacks up against this Kawi. As always, great review :)

Why is it, after watching your review video, I always want that new bike? Weird I know!!! 😎

What a fking beast. Best bike right now !!

Ninja POWER 👍💪🏍

Definitely want one in the garage

I'm on my own, with my uncle 😂 The tech is awesome

I do love a super charge whistling

Awesome review. I’ve always wondered why they put too much power on a sports touring bike, more than the GTR1400 but from your review it seems like a wonderful machine setting it apart from others. I’d love to give it a try one day.

@jonasbaine3538

It’s not too much power. Lots of 200hp sport bike riders want same performance in sport touring setup. This replaces zzr1400 also. Ninja1000 is available with less power and more simple platform.

Yup I have one and I love it, also worthy of note you can pick up an extra 40 or 50 horsepower by just putting a tune on it ;)

Great review as always, how did you find it compared the the ZZR1400?

Thanks for an awesome vid. I had hoped you would compare it to its only real rival - the Hayabusa.

Very informative and interesting video; thanks. All that electronic kit can seem a bit OTT but, let’s be frank, the standard of driving today is dire, and any aids to get one safely to required destination is good by me (provided said aids are not punitive, cost wise). Looks like a great package but not convinced by Kwak’s green - would prefer the single colour for a more classy bike. I would consider one but would add bar risers. But…..as Chris says, no boring old barge needed in this category, so I’m going to test ride the new Guzzi V100 Mandello - dripping quality, class, badge and handling. Not as fast as the Kwan’ but one hell of a bike for the dough.

Hey ShawtAwt From the Place of Adobo ✌️

I bet 80% of ADV bikes never leave paved roads, it would be nice to see more sport touring models released by manufacturers - with emphasis placed on sport. Bikes like this H2, and some more affordable options, obviously.

Hi Chris, thoroughly enjoyed the feature, the shots, the commentaries, the idea behind it. I‘m a big sport touring fan. I have a Ninja 1000sx and one of my „saved videos“ is your video about riding in the winter where you put a Ninja 1000sx through the motions. As you have extensively ridden both Kawasaki sport tourers (+ the Versys), do you think that the H2 SX is a big step up from the 1000sx? What I like about the 1000sx is that it has all the practicallity of the H2 SX (minus the high-tech) when it come to touring but in a lighter and maybe more manageable package. The H2 is also an expensive motorcycle. What would be the added value of the H2, apart from the ballistic engine? Regards

I’ve owned 1000sx, now this one beast, if you opt for se version suspension is way better than 1000sx, brakes as well because brembo, ahh and that engine even is not comparable to 1000sx it is not one step up from 1000sx it is many step ups up. I’ve owned ZZR1400 this one has something from that 😉 One downside of which I can think off comparing to 1000sx is fuel economy, but if you ride calm it is almost the same, but if you twist it will destroy fuel, but for that fun I don’t mind to pay more 😉

Loved the review , Love too own one ,but would be frightened and worried that if anything went wrong have to sell or remortgage my house ,
