Kawasaki ZH2 review by KNOX

[@M4rkmcc21]

After watching your zh2 vs sdr video I was very impressed at the quality and open minded approach to the review and fair bench mark testing for the 2 bikes. This video is just as good. So glad u focused more on the zh2 as this is the one I own now after selling the 2020sdr for one. I love both bikes. Uv summed up the zh2 perfectly and reviewed it without the taste of dislike towards its looks that every other "reviewer" seems to so sheepishly follow. Well done for speaking the truth. Top bike top review 👍🏾

[@KnoxArmour]

Thanks Mark, thats really nice feedback! We are unbiased and will commit to being so... We have owned various Kawasaki's over the years, so can confidently speak about the general quality and reliability from previous Kawasaki machines we've owned. Many thanks, Aaron KNOX

[@AkansasRIDER]

@markmcc21 - can you talk a bit more about your gen3 to zH2 swap, any regrets or surprises other than what we can guess from watching the vids? I'm coming off a 2021 SDR & a few MT10's, real ZH2 curious, mostly holding back b/c our roads can be pretty tight, so agility is a factor for me.

[@M4rkmcc21]

@@AkansasRIDER hands down the gen3 was the better handling bike. Probably a smidge better bike over my 2018 tuno factory and 2019 tuono factory electric ohlines handling wise. The only regrets I had with the zh2 over the gen3 was the looks. For me the gen3 is am absolute winner. Its exactly how I'd design a bike to look. Better than the streetfighter. However removing that nasty large can to a smaller scorpion, adding some carbon fibre here and there and the zh2 started to grow on me. Only other regret was the seat. Stock seat is pants. Get the oem comfort seat. All day comfort with that. You can't really grip the tank with your knees. Your knees are placed on the trellis frame. The suspension is inferior to the gen3. I had a few slips of the rear om places I know the gen3 would stick. I replaced with a £400 nitron shock. Good improvement. Had the whole bike set up. Changed the angle of the bars and the bike was more planted. Fit some S22 tyres. I loved them on my gen3 so put them on my zh2. Grip was far better and the bike handled more like the gen3 but just with split second delay in everything. Like say running an assault course with a 5kg vest on, againt your twin who's not. But it does help it feel more planted esp at Hugh speed. Only times ul significantly feel the extra top heavy weight is slow speed stuff esp pushing and pulling the bike around the garage or doing a U turn. I dropped my bike doing one as I'd not got used to the extra top weight. Surprisingly no damage at all. Brakes are more than adequate. Will stop you very quickly. Just lack the feel of the gen3. Better fluid or master cylinder will improve that. Main improvements over the gen3 is the bikes super smooth. Engines almost like an electric motor. I found myself forgetting to change down to 3rd or 4th when going through slow villages. The bikes range is fantastic. Larger tank and about 50mpg on cruise. Its also a very comfortable position. I bought SW motech saddle bags for this bike. Was planning a trip through Europe on it. Take one out for a test ride. I bet you'll buy it!

I've got a green frame US spec model with almost 1600 miles on it and love it! No issues with the side stand but I agree it could use a steering dampener. Incredible acceleration and that famous supercharger "chirp" put a smile on my face whenever I ride it! No regrets. Good honest review. Ride aware mates.

[@coderhead]

I know this is an old video but I just bought a 2022 ZH2 and am absolutely in love with it. I can identify with all of the pros and cons presented here but I just can't get this smile off my face after spending a few days with the bike. One of the things I think is really worth mentioning is the wheelbase. They could have stretched it or made it more comparable to a ZX-14 or Busa but they kept it trimmed down so close to my K7 Gixxer its handling is nearly indistinguishable from a top-end track bike. That makes a world of difference to me. Pushing 500+lbs around corners with little effort is something everybody can agree is impressive.

[@KnoxArmour]

It really is a mega bike. Personally think it would benefit quite a lot from a proper steering damper set up and possibly a stronger shock, but the engine is like nothing else! Aaron KNOX

It’s having a similar effect as when the 903cc Z1 came out in 1972, it astounded everyone with immense power and the new Z H2 is doing the same. The big difference is, the Z H2 actually handles and brakes. I think the Z1 had 81 HP and the Z H2 close to 200, yet they weigh around the same!

@@soso3241 Shes quite the thirsty beast. If you ride conservatively you could probably get 35-40 miles a gallon. I average 30 a gallon with the way I ride but im not trying to conserve. So im filling up about every 100-110 miles. thats just the nature of having a supercharged engine.

[@ttr6611]

I took a Z H2 on the Autobahn and starting in 4th gear at 60 mph I opened the throttle completely up to 6th gear and 170 mph racing a Mercedes AMG C Coupé. But it stayed pretty good on track and I think it was more the lack of a better wind protection that made more unstable at higher speeds. But the German Autobahn I was riding was way better than your runway… If I would buy one I would try to get another steering bar (more forward oriented), a better wind protection (higher wind screen) and a steering damper would also be a good idea, thats right…

[@Firestorm637]

Forced induction will become more common just like cars due to emissions. VVI, VVT, hybrid, turbo, and Superchargers are the usual mix until full electric which is the best for torque and horsepower. Great review!

[@KnoxArmour]

Hopefully that would be awesome! Zh2 is an amazing mix of power and torque! Can't speak much reference emissions tho, we averaged 30mpg! 😂

[@Firestorm637]

Just like cars, will begin to shrink engine size with addition of forced induction with continued increased horsepower. Less emissions with smaller engines

[@estoylaroca]

Just got the ZH2. Sudden realization that I got as to how exactly to explain how the ZH2 runs... it runs like an electric bike. Power's there all the time, no matter the gear or rev range. It's mind blowing. I guess I got the realization because of how it sounds stock, kind of like an electric (bad thing I guess, but you can always change the exhaust). But yes I do love it. It's exactly a do it all, and it does it ALL not in a "decent" range, but it's really up there in terms of each category. VERY COMFORTABLE, but at the same time, top speed of sport bikes + torque of an electric bike.

[@buchakhilesh6516]

Which is better and faster the zh2 or the brutale 1000 serie rr. What is your opinion and the difference between the two bikes

[@KnoxArmour]

Very hard to say, the Brutale is much more track focused, whereas the ZH2 is a more all round capable and practical bike. In a straight line, its hard to see anything beating the ZH2. Thanks, Aaron KNOX

[@allwheeldrive]

Great, objective review. This amazing piece of work is a study in successful, modern-day compromises. We all like to go fast, but the definition of fast has been ever-changing. 200bhp in a bike, 700 in a car. Even some electric bicycles can hit 60mph and have bags of lbs-ft. To put all of this into a package that is actually usable - and not inherently dangerous - has become the real art. Looks like this ZH2 is a new high-water mark for this balancing act. I can't help but think, though, somewhere in the not-too-distant future that some kind of oversight will start to put the squeeze on things like this through taxation or outright bans. It's happened before, and, no, it doesn't feel right. We indeed have the right to make our own decisions (however optimistic). But it does take a special bit of preparation to get the most from something so capable as the ZH2.

How well dose the wheelie control work? By that I mean, if I want to wheelie a little (say 6”-12”) while under full power, will it do it? Or is the wheelie control an on or off feature?

[@KnoxArmour]

Really well, in fact normally on all the bikes we ever test, at some point we'll turn the TC off to do some wheelies.. However, as the ZH2 is supercharged and super fast and we aren't that experienced with the power delivery of supercharged bikes, we left TC on the whole time. So any wheelies that you see in the video are in TC1 and Full power mode, partly why the wheelies in the video aren't very high as the anti-wheelie knocks it back... It allows the wheel to come up around 1ft and holds it there basically, and works really well. Hope that helps, Aaron KNOX

Some of the H2 models, mine a 2022 being one of them. Push oil up though the crank case vent tube into the intake runner upstream of the supercharger. Given my aggressive riding style after 400 miles I have oil dripping out of the intake runner onto the floor. Kawasaki will not acknowledge the problem so they have no fix for the problem. My ZH2 is at the Kawasaki dealer were they are clueless as to the source of the problem. Tearing into my engine blindly. My advise, the bike is a rocket and despite being over 500 lbs. you can still run it though the corners fast enough you will wear your tires from edge to edge. Hold off on purchasing an H2 until Kawasaki has a fix for the problem.

This bike puts you into a time warp and leaves your brain behind. It's like riding a jet fighter. It rolls on like a electric motor... near instant torque....and somehow, it's over 500lbs but still feels like a dirt bike. The handlebars and front fairings make you feel like your riding a race-spec Jetski or Wave Runner. It rips. You have to be careful with the throttle and lean forward or it will lift the front wheel in 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th. I think the most fun is quietly rolling aside drivers at about 40mph and then instantly DISAPPEARING away from them. The Stock exhaust is SUPER quiet and smooth.... Mwah!

I really like your content and wanted to support you and purchase the urban pro utility or zephyr but you pretty much have zero stock on your site.

[@KnoxArmour]

Hi Adam, thanks for your support. We do currently have a back order situation with some products due to massive demand. However, you can order and it will be delivered asap. Many thanks, Aaron KNOX

[@charl12]

Knox Armour thanks for the heads up Aaron will be sticking with Knox. (Got my urban utility pro today from urban rider in the UK. 30 degree day in Sydney today worked great and the armour not restrictive at all. Thanks Knox)

no steering damper on a 200 hp bike with a short ass wheel base? thats stupid. what was kawi thinking? i hope they offer one from the factory with newer models.

[@KnoxArmour]

Well amazingly, the new Triumph Speed Triple doesnt have one either. Think all supernakeds need one. Thanks, Aaron KNOX

[@erliedizon1210]

It’s missing a steering damper and it will be complete,l’ve seen a death wobble at high speed with this bike🤔

[@moderngames8892]

My dream bike

[@kpahk]

i can't understand how kawasaki is producing this beast with no steering damper

[@mrpatricksipai9197]

[@KnoxArmour]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! Aaron KNOX

Knox Gears always look a lot different in the video than the pictures on the website.

[@KnoxArmour]

Hi, we have them on models on the site and use the same products on different types of motorcycles. Thanks, Aaron KNOX

It's a powerful massin

[@petervrousgos5603]

Love this bike!!

[@KnoxArmour]

Missile!! ;)

[@questforknowledge750]

Hate that muffler! Should have gone twin to reduce size.

[@szn00]

But as a Naked bike it's just too much power!!! Just get the sport model...or get a better naked👍

[@jchelm1979]

There's no such thing as too much power 😂 I love mine

[@ThatMagaLife]

Totally different than a sport bike. These naked bikes are about torque and midrange.

[@Tenksen]

'who is going to be doing 120mph anyway?' everyone who has one: .........

[@steve-wu7jp]

Fantastic video and review. Id still take a Super Duke or Tuono over this but epic machine all the same. Who ever buys one will be happy for years

[@KnoxArmour]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! Aaron KNOX

[@mintysugarcube]

should've given a Steering Damper

[@ralphwarom2514]

And also put max traction control on. XD THe electronics are there for a reason. XD

[@joeridestrijcker445]

it's so charming that you consistently call it 'haitch' ;)

[@KnoxArmour]

Love to be charming!! Aaron KNOX

[@joeridestrijcker445]

@@KnoxArmour haha, cute! Just curious: where do yo live? We were always taught it's 'aitch' (as confirmed by the wiki sources I consulted) and 'haitch' is a regional variation of some kind... (I personally also speak dialect very often, so not judging... merely curious)

[@KnoxArmour]

$17,000. I paid $14,000 for a corolla when it first came out. I just see it as buying another corolla. In time, buddy, you’ll get it for sure😎👍
