Review

The 2021 Kawasaki Ninja H2 SX SE Plus represents a significant evolution in the sport-touring category, building upon the legacy of the supercharged Ninja H2 platform. While not a direct competitor in terms of engine layout, the BMW S1000 XR offers a similar blend of high performance and touring capabilities. This machine aims to provide a unique riding experience compared to more traditional sport-tourers.

At the heart of the Ninja H2 SX SE Plus lies its defining feature: a supercharged 998.0 ccm inline-four engine. This powerplant generates a maximum power output of 228.0 HP (166.4 kW) at 11500 RPM, making it incredibly potent. The torque figure is equally impressive, peaking at 141.7 Nm (14.4 kgf-m or 104.5 ft.lbs) at 11000 RPM. This abundance of power and torque translates to forceful acceleration and effortless overtaking. The fuel capacity is 17.00 litres (4.49 US gallons), which allows for reasonable range between fill-ups. The seat height is 836 mm (32.9 inches) at its lowest adjustable setting, which may pose a challenge for shorter riders.

The riding experience is characterized by a balance of sportiness and comfort. While not as aggressively track-focused as a pure sportbike, the Ninja H2 SX SE Plus offers a relatively sporty riding position. The suspension is electronically adjustable, allowing riders to fine-tune the damping characteristics to suit their preferences and road conditions. This contributes to a comfortable ride even on longer journeys. The bike also features a suite of electronic rider aids, including traction control and cornering ABS, enhancing safety and control.

The 2021 Kawasaki Ninja H2 SX SE Plus is geared towards experienced riders who appreciate both high performance and long-distance comfort. It's for someone who wants more than just a standard sportbike or a dedicated touring machine. If you are looking for a motorcycle with a unique supercharged engine and the ability to cover significant distances, then the Ninja H2 SX SE Plus is definitely worth considering.
