Motorcycle specifications KawasakiNINJA H2 Carbon 2019 La proue d'escampette

The Kawasaki H2 clearly needed to become more emancipated, more sporty, more demonstrative. With an engine boosted to over 240 dynamic horsepower (231 static), this Ninja hunts in lands of excess. Much to the delight of enthusiasts of gigantic machines.

the H2 Carbon, which takes up the essentials of its sibling, logically benefits from the same evolutions. Before reviewing them, let's take a look at what sets this special series apart. To live up to its name, it boasts a carbon-fiber fork head - a luxurious piece, reminiscent of the full carbon-fiber cladding found on the H2R. No weight savings are announced for the machine, as the balance remains at 238 kilos.

2019 sees a judicious transfer of technology from the H2 to the H2 SX. Recent mechanical optimizations on the Sport-GT have boosted the super-sport in many respects. A reworked air filter, intake chamber, spark plugs and ECU deliver a 16% increase in power and a reduction in fuel consumption.
Under the eyes, it was no longer possible to pilot the machine with the original dashboard... while the H2 SX boasts a more advanced instrument cluster with color TFT window.
"So what do we do?" said the Kawas.
"Well, I'll steal it from you. But I'm adding Bluetooth so I can display certain information on a smartphone".
Another special feature of the new H2s is a self-healing paint that can "repair" minor scratches, the latest generation of Brembo brake calipers (M50 Stylema) and a set of Bridgestone RS11 tires. All this to get even more out of an unclassifiable, striking sports car. The only one with a compressor, a guarantee of pure sensations when it starts to turbinate.
