Ninja H2 SX SE. 197 bhp. First ride and Review

My first ride of a supercharged motorcycle. Kindly loaned to me by Bolton Motorcycles in Greater Manchester. www.boltonmotorcycles.co.uk/
Watch this if you want to know how it feels to ride an almost 200bhp machine.

    I’ve run Busa’s for the last 15 years until I road tested an H2SXSE in late 2018. I was hooked and collected mine in March 2019. She’s been all over France/Spain and all being well, Italy next year. Fully laden, two up touring is just amazing on this thing, good in the twisty bits, brilliant on motorways, steady as a rock and vibration free at any speed and I’ve gotta say, pretty good on the go go juice too! Kawasaki really worked some magic on this thing, superb bit of kit. The only issue I have, is what do I get next after this bit of Japanese wizardry🤔

    That is no issue you have at all, after this one you just get a new one with even more Japanese wizardry on it, since Kawasaki is updating this model every 2 years. And if you want more power on it, it is pretty easy taking it well above 230 hp with a new exhaust system and a ecu flash/tune on it.

    A great video and a stunning bike. Probably the best "do everything" bike you can by for tarmac use. Sports, touring, commuting! It's great at everything.

    Great real world review mate. Running a 2019 H2SXSE+ with a flash ;) The cruise control, sporty handling & integrated luggage are what makes the bike superior to my previous ZZR14, which was & still is one awesome motorcycle :)

    Geoff Poole The riding position is a bit more comfy than the ZZR14 as well right ? The clip ons seems to be a bit more raised and the leg room seems to be a bit more relaxed.

    I had the Ninja 1000SX 2018 for two years and test rode this bike two years ago, man this is so much better and after a 40 min test ride 2 years ago became my dream bike. I think maybe next year or the year after (2025) I will buy the H2 SX but the old 2018 all black one. I do not need quickshifter, turning lights or colour tft screen and I prefer the black one since I do not like green. Then I am putting some mods on it like a taller solid black windscreen, a seat cowl, a very light full exhaust system and a ECU flash and this bike will have like 220-250 rear wheel horsepower. Then removing the centre stand and putting Pirelli Angel GT 2 tires on it, it will be as light as the Ninja 1000SX and handle like a dream with a lot of great sport touring power :D

    If you ride this bike below 60mph like it is being ridden in 90% of this video, like if you are riding in town it will behave very smooth. If you are riding it very aggressive and fast it will do that even better. This is just an awesome very flexible bike that you can do almost everything on. And like mentioned in the video, it hides its weight very well. Turns better than any other bike around and even below its weight. This is my dream bike and I will buy it within a couple of years, I can not think of a better bike if you can only have one bike that has to do it all!

    Flash unleashes the beast! Running a 2019 H2SXSE+ with cat still on, just a Yoshi can & Sprint P08. 218 rwhp. More importantly, the fuelling is spot on & the bike runs how it should. I take your point Gordz. It's all the emissions regs!

    I heard the turbo wears the moter down faster,I not Shure if it does.the 14 is a little faster. I like all the features with heated grips I think it handles easier then the 14 may be good to check out the maintanace records on both bikes and see how they hold up when u get alot of millage on them🤔

    Compromise with this is "lack of power" to to restrictions. With an aftermarket exhaust, air filter and remap you can get 230HP+ AT the back wheel. I would love to get one, bank manager says no though

    Yeah, you will be able to get both feet down but tippytoe a bit, but enough to feel safe. Seat is pretty high at 835mm but it is very narrow in the front at the tank so you will be fine. The bike is also very good balanced so you can always lean the bike a bit to the left side and put your whole left foot completely to the ground while you have your right foot on the brake.
