KECS with Skyhook

KECS, Kawasaki’s semi-active electronic suspension system, adapts to road and riding conditions in real time, providing the ideal amount of damping called for. Updated software incorporates Skyhook technology to deliver an even more composed ride, contributing to increased comfort and enjoyment.

Supercharged Sport Touring

Originally conceived to be the fastest sport tourer on the Autobahn, the Ninja H2 SX offers a unique riding experience. With supercharged acceleration and the equipment to cover long distances in comfort, Kawasaki’s supercharged sport tourer will have riders smiling in their helmets as they eat up the miles.

Flagship Convenience Features

Befitting a flagship model, the Ninja H2 SX features large, full colour instrumentation in addition to a host of high-grade convenience features including KIPASS and TPMS.

Leading-Edge Technology

The Ninja H2 SX is Kawasaki’s first model to integrate an FI-ECU with torque-demand capabilities; new IMU that measures in six DOF; and boost-circuit-equipped ABS with high computational power, enabling coordinated chassis control. Equipped with Bosch’s Advanced Rider Assistance Systems and (on the SE model) Showa’s Skyhook Technology, the Ninja H2 SX is Kawasaki’s most advanced model to date.

Balanced Supercharged Engine

Designed to offer both power and fuel efficiency, the Balanced Supercharged Engine delivers a maximum power of 200 PS. Tuning focused on the low-mid range prioritises everyday usability in street-riding situations over outright performance, and helps to achieve fuel efficiency exceeding that of the Ninja 1000SX and Versys 1000.

Kawasaki Rider Support Technology

Tuning focused on the low-mid range prioritises everyday usability in street-riding situations over outright performance, and helps to achieve fuel efficiency exceeding that of the Ninja 1000SX and Versys 1000.

Auto High Beam (AHB)

Using a camera sensor to assess the brightness of the lights of vehicles ahead, of streetlights, etc. AHB automatically turns the bike’s high beams on or off as necessary. For the system to function, the dimmer/passing switch must be set to high beam, the bike must be travelling above 20 km/h, and it must be dark. When the system has been engaged, the icon displayed on the instrument screen will show green.

Emergency Stop Signal (ESS)

During hard braking, ESS causes the brake light to flash, calling attention to the bike’s quick deceleration.

BSD (Blind-Spot Detection)

The rear-facing radar sensor monitors the bike’s surroundings and alerts the rider to presence of a vehicle approaching in the rider’s blind spot.

FCW (Forward Collision Warning)

When the system determines that continuing at the current speed may result in a collision with the vehicle in front, it warns the rider.

Wind Protection & Aerodynamics

With its large windshield and full-fairing bodywork, the Ninja H2 SX provides substantial wind protection, contributing to rider comfort on long rides. In addition to contributing to sporty styling, the aerodynamically shaped bodywork is also a benefit when riding at highway speeds.

ACC (Adaptive Cruise Control)

A more advanced version of Electronic Cruise Control, ACC maintains the speed set by the rider, but adjusts the vehicle speed to maintain a suitable following distance from the vehicle in front.

6.5” TFT Colour Instrumentation

A more advanced version of Electronic Cruise Control, ACC maintains the speed set by the rider, but adjusts the vehicle speed to maintain a suitable following distance from the vehicle in front.

Vehicle Hold Assist (VHA)

Activated when the rider has stopped and firmly applies the brake(s), VHA engages the rear brake to allow the rider to relax their brake hand/foot.

Kawasaki SPIN

Kawasaki’s new smartphone-based infotainment app enables various third-party applications to be downloaded and displayed on the cockpit’s TFT display.

Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

TPMS continuously monitors tyre air pressure while riding, adding to rider reassurance on long tours.

LED Cornering Lights

Lean-activated lights built into the fairings help illuminate the road when cornering.

Brembo Stylema Monobloc Calipers (SE)

On the SE model, high-spec Brembo Stylema monobloc calipers offer enhanced control. The compact, lightweight calipers minimise the internal space taken up by fluid, enabling a more direct response. Stylema calipers cool very rapidly thanks to a design that promotes airflow around the brake pads, space around the pistons, and an opening that allows air to exit from the central bridge.

KIPASS

KIPASS (Kawasaki’s Intelligent Proximity Activation Start System) master key system allows remote activation of the bike’s main switch and steering lock.

Advanced Rider Assistance Systems (ARAS)

Bosch’s radar-based ARAS systems made their Japanese mass-production motorcycle debut on the Ninja H2 SX. These surround sensing technology features help add to rider reassurance while touring or riding in heavy traffic.

Comfortable Seating for Two

Ergonomically designed front seat both provides comfort for spending long hours in the saddle, and accommodates position changes for sportier riding. Both rider and passenger seats are wider than previous, and revised shapes, thickness and density add to rider and passenger comfort.

Clean-Mount Pannier System

Attaching and removing the accessory panniers is simple and convenient thanks to the mounting system. When mounted, the panniers integrate seamlessly with the rear of the bike; when removed, the clutter-free design ensures the rear of the bike looks good.
