I bought one in the USA without a test ride. The best feature of the bike is the confidence it transfers to the rider. Surprised at how planted and stable it is at deep lean on crap roads. It’s a brilliant bike for long days on B roads in sparsely populated areas of the northeast corner of the USA. Windy roads and no cops!!!! I love it. Also I’ve owned close to 30 bikes in the past 10 years with 8 in the garage, this bike exceeded my expectations.

A friend of mine owns the spiritual predecessor to this beast: the zx14r. And despite being such a land whale, with unbelievable amounts of power and torque, its a surprisingly easy bike to ride and really holds its weight well. Kawasaki sure knows how to make a heavy bike with tons of power work. And it seems they're finally taking their major issues like braided lines, brakes, suspension packages seriously. The return of the sport tourer has been a marvelous thing to behold in today's day and age of adventure tourers.

I Just bought a 22 S1000rr in June I had to raise the bars with helibars and vortex rearsets for more comfortable riding then went to look for a 22 zx14r for my cruise bike and next to it was 22 H2 SX SE I bought it in late July . What a machine especially with the electronic suspension and blind spot monitors in mirrors also love the adaptive cruise control. Super comfortable rediculous fast and smooth it builds speed like a Tesla very electric you need to hold on tight it will rip your hands off the grips in sport mode if you crack it open around 4k rpm in first or second. It gives my S1000rr a good run in a race 20-140 with similar 220lb rider . I love both bike for different reasons but this is a fantastic do everything bike it is seriously amazing in the twists considering when you pick it up off the stand you say wow it’s porky but as soon as you roll it feels light how they did that I have no idea. Loved my ZX14r had 2 of them but they didn’t handle 1/10th as good as H2SX even though the both bikes have the same wheel base . Anyone unsure about this bike like I was just ride it and your wallet will fight it’s way open. I didn’t want to to like this bike the dealer made me ride it and It was over my decision was made in 7 miles .

Hi Chops, thanks for the reviews... I AM LOVIN' my H2 SX... i work in Newcastle NSW Australia and travel to and from home in Grafton 448km one way.. i will be doing over 1000km/620mile every week..Very happy with the THRUST, B22 battleaxe tryes 95% now with 1200km on them they stuck real well in the torrential rain last weekend coming home, was getting between 20-24km/litre ie 47mgp-56mpg on a tight engine in road mode.. First weekend home then straight back for its first service and roughlt 11hrs sitting in the seat... as comfy as, no probs.. now 10 days later with 1900km/1100 miles on the clock i went for a blat and i was getting 5ltr/100km 20km/ltr or 47mpg in Sports mode.... I dont want to ride another now... i've had so many young fellas stopping at traffics lights saying to me this is their dream bike... the lines are beautiful, colours stunning, ride is soooo comfy, it goooeeeeessssss, ergonomic for me and i didn't even get wet in torrential down pour without my wet weather gear.. I am paying it off with the difference in what it would cost me in the car to run...but i get this lovely green missile on wheels for free.... yay... All the best and keep up the reviews.. Ps where is the link for the new 360 i'd like one for my beauty... Safe riding Wazza.....

Got 4300 miles out of the standard BS22 rear, 5000 out of the front, now changed them for Road 6’s see if they give more longevity. I love my girl, changed the end can, it’s one heavy beast, and changed a few other bits n bobs.

I've had mine 2018 h2sx se and she's already on 40k miles on the clock. The road 6s should last you for about 6-8k miles . Only tire I managed to squeeze a bit more life of was some very expensive metzeler but when they wore out the front started shaking at high speeds so I switched back to the road 6. 40k miles and she still feels like new. Nothing but brilliance about this bike.

Good reviews on the this motorbike. Was a difficult choice between this and the ZZR1400. Took the plunge after looking at this and pruchased a Kawasaki Ninja H2 SX SE Performance. Love the braided brake lines, the Akropovic exhaust and the adaptive cruise control. Going to be an interesting experiance with a set of wide modified straight bars attached by the previous owner. Not even had a first ride yet until collection day.

The ZH2 is more wersatile bike and wery fun to drive fast even if you cant push like the Aprilia. It likes even to go slow. The Tuono hated legal speeds.

My 2020 H2SXSE+ is rather good on fuel, at 55.3mpg (imperial). I use it for touring, and weekend / evening playing around. Why do people say that it is poor on the mpg? Maybe because it was run in properly and not abused in the run-in period by journalist? Although I am not a fan of the new front end, too me it looks bland, I do like that shiny green. It looks different to my '20 colouring or is that an effect of the video?

Great review, I do a lot of two-up riding with my partner. My current bike is a 2016 Multistrada. We are considering upgrading. And the H2 SX SE is an option. Can you go more in-depth with a pillion on board? It will be great to get an opinion on comfort and ride quantity as a pillion... In particular, on a descent long ride stint (250kms + ) 1/2 to 1 day of riding or more overnight etc. I hope you can include this topic in your next ride

Thank you for yet another excellent review- highly entertaining, but informative and professional. My only complaint is that I thought I had finally settled on the motorcycle I will get to replace my V4s but you have sewn some doubts. I recently moved to southern Spain from Canada and want a bike that will be used for local (2-3 hour) trips into the mountains or along the coast roads, with the occasional 4-7 days trips further afield. I am an avid cyclist so any motorcycle outing, comfort wise, feels like being on/in a Cadillac. I was leaning heavily towards the S1000rr, but now I will have to investigate the H2 SX. I am really looking forward to your next video.

That’s what I used to do before I got knocked off. I live streamed concurrently to Twitch and KZbin and I used ‘text to voice’ through my Sena so it was not distracting to answer questions even while riding. Its not easy to do this in the UK but it’s possible with the right tech on the right roads.

i own a 1000sx 2021. Slightly more lean forward. a bit more firm seat. You can feel the extra weight while pushing bike around, its heavy. Think of having a 50 kilo passager on the SX. New large display is super crisp and nice looking. Same smooth surge in power as SX. Torque is hard to describe, basically infinite power and torque compared to SX. You will only need like quarter throttle. I tested the "SE" version. Chassi and damping felt like a locomotive on rails. Its super planted sureal feeling. Breaks are super strong and feels good 10/10. H2SX feels like SX on steroids and put on quite some extra weight. I tested new Hayabusa also and it was a huge disapointment. Felt like squatting with knees in your face and 70% of all weight on your wrist. Like steering a cruise-ship. Brakes was on par with H2SX but suspension felt harsh on hayabusa. Reach to bars was a stretch. So 10min ride felt like worst in my life. High knees stretch over tank. Its like a racebike with 1300cc. Been riding for 20 years and owned 8 bikes. H2SXSE is like a wet teenage dream :D Its like having a playboy model asking you out for prom night.

Jeez, the rate at which you overtook that camper van 😮 It was just a dot, in a matter of a second 😂

A beautiful shade of green, I wonder about maintenance though, on my old Ninja 12 R it took an hour to change the battery. Very handsome machine

My last big Kawasaki was a Zx12r, which was a blast. The H2 SX sounds phenomenal, however no matter how I look at it, it just looks weird to me, especially with those gonzo pipes. No doubt I'd love riding one, but it just looks confused.

This bike costs $35,000 in Australia. It needs to have the electronic suspension for that price but here we can't ge that version.

The initial introduction showing the front end with the small head light I couldn’t help but think car drivers might be confused as to what is approaching them ! Which was confirmed later on with the car creeping out from the left 11.04 🤔 An additional test Chops Park it up for a day outside my place of work in central London and see if it’s still there at the end of the day !

I’ve been looking at this bike. But that’s probably as far as it will go. $35k here in Canada. Looking forward to more footage.

I didn't notice the H2 supercharger chirp that I've heard on other H2s. Doesn't this H2 model have the chirp?

i would suggest to go test the XR. I have mine 2 years, 60 k kms now and had a gs for two days this week (for the 60k service). Very happy to get backon my own. XR is around 225 kg wet

It weighs more but probably handles way better and the power of the GS wont even come close

So in your opinion, is it worth the extra cash to replace my 2019 SXSE🤔As far as I’m aware, nothing has changed power plant wise, it’s just the dash, radar etc and in my opinion, less aggressive looks at the front. I love my beastie and have been waiting for your 2022 H2 road test to help my decision👌🏽… Roll on the next vid👍🏽

It’s like an exercise in excess, fantastic bike but probably a bit pointless in the U.K. with revenue collectors and unrealistic speed limits……..Great Vlog Chops, looking forward to the next in the series, interested to see how you feel it stacks up against a top end ADV.
