They say the 2020 SDR is smoother, more refined and more like a sportsbike. That's why I love and will keep my 2014 until it dies. There's nothing like an unrefined, rough naked with massive torque, snappy delivery and sketchy suspension when pushed to make you feel alive. I call it character.

The 4th 5th and 6th gear roll ons show how much midrange punch the zh2 has compared to the ktm. And lets not forget, the zh2 is SEVERELY restricted from the factory. Theres another 30-40 wheel horsepower to be had when the ecu flash is available.

Whine of supercharger may be nice, but it IS a gimmick with the problems mentioned above...

[@ManishKumar-gb8rq]

The best thing about dual cylinder engine in ktm is that it delivers peak torque at just 7000rpm

[@Schlum99]

Great video! This is the first time I have seen the ZH2 at full throttle over 150mph up close, the shake is pretty severe, the KTM looked better planted at this speeds. No wonder the street fighter has all those winglets, I think they would make a good after market add on for the Z. Anyone who is thinking of tuning the Z to 250hp without considering some additional downforce and a steering stabilizer better have a big set.

[@KnoxArmour]

Thanks for your feedback, appreciate it! Yes, the shake on the ZH2 makes it hard to put all the power down and yes the SuperDuke was much more planted at high speed. In principle, yes, extra downforce and steering damper on the Zed would have made a big difference to the 0-150 range, the roll on performance less so. Thanks, Aaron KNOX

[@rudedog3529]

How about a ZH 2 at 180 Mph.... Didn't get on it till I got past the only car on the road at 23 sec. No wings or stabilizer needed. Shut down about 100 yards before my usual brake marker. kzbin.info/www/bejne/immni2SPaLKifM0

The summary summed it up nicely. It might even depend on rider age come to think of it.

Naked*🌝

[@BlocklandTerminata]

The ZH2 seems to be sort of just a novelty. If you're looking for power and comfort, why would you get a super naked? Gentleman's sportbikes like the Ninja 1000sx are specialized for that sort of thing. Better wind protection, options for pannier cases, cruise control, heated grips, and 140 fucking horsepower. Not to mention its 5 grand cheaper and 10 pounds lighter. Having 200 horsepower doesn't mean anything when you can clearly see in the video that the Zh2 has trouble remaining stable at very high speeds. Horsepower porn is fair enough, but in the ZH2's case, its just on paper. Apparently it can go 240 miles an hour, but if its slapping tank at 130 I'd wager you'd be dead at 200 with a strong wind. Glad this bike exists though, you'd never see something this wild in the car industry. The SDR is a much more focused machine with a much clearer identity. Austrians get this one for me.

[@leosanchez4516]

Ur right abt that , i had to buy a little windshield for my z h2 and it feels much better going over 120mph

[@ur2slob724]

[@masterswish3355]

Pushed my Z H2 to 160 and didn't have any of the wobble here. The tuffs of grass certainly don't help! I would like to see a factory damper on the H2 none the less!

[@carlmiller9310]

All of these guys on here saying that the KTM isn't reliable are completely full of crap. I have a 2015 super Duke R that that has never had a single mechanical problem, only general maintenance. It even has the original chain and sprockets which are still in excellent shape. I have put 5 sets of tires on it and that's it. One hell of a motorcycle, and that's coming from a guy who drove nothing but Kawasakis for 50 years. I started out riding 750H2s in 1972. I also drag raced many different Kawasaki's and in fact have 2 in my shop right now that I used to race at the strip. When I ride the super Duke it is almost never under 100 miles an hour and many times I'm running at 130 to 150 mph. I have owned almost every big Kawasaki ever made. They have all been extremely dependable bikes, but out of all the bikes I've ever owned, I like the super Duke the best. It is like a razor blade in a box of butter knives compared to the rest. For anyone to say this bike is unreliable shows their complete and utter ignorance. Every piece on my super Duke screams quality and precision. The 1st thing I did was get rid of the SAS system and put on a graves cat delete exhaust, Rottweiler air filter and shorter stacks. It sounds otherworldly. Scares people when it starts up. No more tin can sound.Then it was a Power Commander and a dyno tune and now it is well over 200 hp, and blows the doors off of just about anything that has come up beside it. I also have a 2018 Z900 RS. It is a really nice bike but it only has 300 miles on it because every time I go to the garage, I go Z 900 or super Duke? 9 times out of 10, it's the superduke it's just that much fun to ride. With all that being said my next bike is going to be a ZH2. I think it will be a better bike for longer journeys. The 1st thing it will get is a steering stabilizer. There is no excuse for that kind of headshake on a bike that goes that fast and Kawasaki was nuts for not putting one on it from the factory. WTF were they thinking? In conclusion, a great bike is a great bike, enjoy them all.

[@KnoxArmour]

Agree the SuperDuke is amazing! Yes, Kawasaki should have steering damper fitted, but they seem to have a strange strategy for that... even their ZX6r doesnt come fitted with one! On flip side, pretty much every KTM bike has one fitted and I think they are a very important safety feature. Thanks, Aaron KNOX

The ktm more like a mclaren P1. Light agile fast focused and super quick. Both will get u A to B quicker than u will ever be able to master but just in different ways.

I have an H2SXSE and its solid and stable like you are being pulled on a chain. Also like you said about sitting on the ZH2 but in the KTM - thats exactly how I described it as well. I said early on that I felt as if (at 6ft) I sat IN the H2SX and agree that you feel perched on the ZH2. I'm just not connecting and hope for a new H2SX in 2022

I've ridden the hell out of a BMW s1000r. For me, SuperNakeds are best around 35-100mph. Slower than 35mph and they are heavy beasts. Faster than 100mph and you are getting so low you might as well have fairings. Also, the key to taking a SuperNaked to 170mph or so is to pinch the fuel tank hard with your knees and make your hands feathers on the bars. They're a lot of fun but I still prefer Standards for their relatively better performance balance.

I recently sold my 2016 Super Duke GT for a new 2018 Super Duke 1290r last year. I love the SD motor with torque and horsepower at the same time all under 9500 rpm. It is too much for the street. I recently bought a Beauty to go with the Beast 2.0, MV agusta Dragster 800rr Pirelli Edition. A little less horsepower and weight with another unique engine, the triple. I bought the MV over the Streetfighter V4S as again too much power for the street. Middle weights have the perfect horsepower but you still need HALO bikes where the tech will filter down to their other bikes.

Definitely looking to trade my blade in for a Duke! Torque monster, class for the road

[@TIMHARTTT]

Which Blade do you have ?? I am torn between 2024 Blade and the new 1390 KTM.

[@talimawafghani586]

the headlight design from ktm is superb. i wonder how they made it

[@gm16v149]

First off, that’s one of the best comparos I’ve seen. I think for our Australian roads the Z H2 would be better. Plus you’ve got the legendary Kawasaki reliability. First thing would be to ditch the OEM Kawasaki muffler though. I’ve got a Z900RS “Jaffa” that’s a keeper, but I keep looking at the Z H2 at the dealer haha.

Thanks, glad you thought so! Aaron KNOX

$100 used zx10 muffler and your set no need for a $1500 akra.
