Great vid and some valid points. I new the colour would grow on you. There is always going to be negatives in everything you buy but as long as the positives outweigh them it’s worth it. Look forward to the 5 things you love about it.

Nice one buddy and yea, the colour is fine. Would still have a black one though lol. The positives do outweigh the negs by a massive amount but I think it’s important to point out the negs. Cheers pal and see you very soon 💋

The key argument just makes 100% sense. Makes no sense to make the bike “keyless” if in fact it is not keyless at all, so you might as well have the key rest in the ignition all the time. Ohh well, pretty sure Kawasaki engineers will fix this at some point. Had a 2010 Z1000 back in the days and enjoyed it massively (had a candy from it tuning wise, even had an Ohlins steering damper with custom mount as well as back suspension by them, full tune/ PowerCommander, quickshifter, full Akrapovich exhaust…) Looking forward buying the H2 SX SE one summer day:)

The screen induced buffeting is a surprise. Your list is very recognizable, easy to identify with. Color wise I wish they'd have it in all black with a green frame, sort of like they did with the original H2.

Hey buddy. Deffo an amazing bike. I love the pants off it 🫡

Buy a lanyard, fit to fob, drop down the the front of your jacket. Easy to access and harder to lose too.

Yeah I know what you mean it’s weird because my 2023 Yamaha MT 10 has a guard on the oil cooler but not on the radiator from the factory. Now granted the oil cooler sits below the radiator so is the lowest part but it’s just weird that they would put one on the oil cooler and not the radiator. Then again my motorcycle was only $14,000 not $30,000 like yours. I know what you mean about the fuel also. If I’m playing around, I’m fueling my motorcycle every other ride. i’m getting about 35 to 38 miles per gallon and I’m not completely dogging on it but I do like to have fun. And of course 93 octane. Now of course nobody buys a bike like mine, or especially like yours for fuel economy

Great vid pal I think every bike has bad points but as long as they are out weighed by the good. It’s not the greatest with no room under the seat considering older bikes like my gixxer have ample room. Take care pal ❤

Great review. Its funny but I got used to my keyless fob and I like it. You must remember to always have it on your person though and on a Goldwing you could easily put your jacket in the trunk with the fob inside the jacket, and the bike could auto lock everything! So I actually like the fact that the Kawasaki requires a key for the panniers, petrol cap etc. You can get into a lot of trouble if the fob is needed for everything. The biggest hurts for me are the side stand, the radiator guard, and the skid engine protectors, which should be stock. I may also seek out a higher windscreen as I am about your height too and buffering would bother me too. Some after market screens have a steep curve outwards at the top thereby pushing the wind flow higher so you may not need a higher screen if it has a steep curve. Does the bike come with the tinted shield or was that an extra? Nice review, thank you!

If you want to be realistic, the TFT is just a stupid aesthetic item, it's got little to no actual functionality as using the phone with it is complete trash, and not even possible if you have a flip phone, which are normally GREAT for motorcycles as they fit a belt holster nicely. I kinda like the keyless functionality, but when you lock the head, it's really a PITA to get it to unlock until you get used to it.

Haha lol. Take a breath buddy. These are the things I don’t like and are very relevant to me. Best value bike though??? Use centre stand all the time??? Nah. No click bait here mate and I have no aspirations at all to review and be sponsored. Oh and I do think It’s a great bike over all. Think I said that. Thanks for the comment.

IMO..It wasn't thought out like it should have been.My 2015 H2 was actually a great bike.This 2020 SXSE+ I have has required a reshaped seat,bar risers.and a flash/piping to pull the ponies out somewhat.THen the recalls.My bike has been actually trouble-free in 8K miles so far.Only the tensioner seems to be getting a bit noisier at startup when cold.I have a manual one here.@@MotovlogUK

You could put the key under the passenger seat. 🤷

Just taking the piss a little as your dislikes were minor compared to what I have experienced on my new 2022 KTM super duke GT which Ive only had since March- Ive decided to trade it back and taken a hit after numerous problems including stopping suddenly, multiple fault codes, stranded in middle of nowhere, new battery etc in 5 months and half a dozen visits to the dealer (who was as helpful as they could be). I was looking at your vids to decide what to get next as I decided to go with the 2023 H2SX SE !@@MotovlogUK

PS I agree about the side stand and fuel cap need the key. My Beemer has all that sorted, and I use a lanyard which works great

@@stellaracrobat hey it’s all good pal but OMG it sounds like you’ve had an absolute nightmare. What a shame pal. I thought KTM were sorted now. That sucks big time. Haven’t had any major issues atm 🤞 on the H2. You’ll love it mate. You getting the performance and touring packs on it?

@@stellaracrobat I tried the lanyard approach but I kept swinging the key into the bike when I unzipped my jacket at the cafes lol. It went in the bin

I’ve an H2 Sxse + No problems at all , I think your comments are pathetic, the keyless are a nuisance, I do prefer a key.

I have an idea where you should put the key. But you wouldn't like that either.
