KAWASAKI Z H2 (2023)
SUPERCHARGE Z FLAGSHIP
KAWASAKI Z H2 (2023)
BALANCED SUPERCHARGED ENGINE FOR A SUPERNAKED
The Supernaked Z H2 eliminates this problem by using a supercharged engine. The liquid-cooled DOHC 16-valve 998 cm3 In-Line Four Balanced Supercharged Engine generates a high maximum power of 147 kW (200 PS)*, while also being lightweight and compact.
DOG-RING TRANSMISSION
The Kawasaki Racing Team-inspired dog-ring transmission provides high-performance shifting that offers light operation and crisp, rapid shifts for quick acceleration.
ASSIST & SLIPPER CLUTCH
The assist cam reduces the clutch spring load for lighter clutch lever operation, which helps reduce rider fatigue in city riding situations like stop & go traffic or traffic jams.
RIDE OUT LOUD
The intake duct features a fine-tuned shape that highlights the operating sound of the supercharger for a unique and emotional engine sound, unlike anything you've heard before.
A UNIQUE DESIGN
The trellis frame is engineered for a special combination of high-speed stability and light handling so you can experience the ride with exceptional handling performance and confident control.
SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE
Enhanced handling care of the adjustable Showa SFF-BP front fork is complemented by the New Uni Trak rear suspension featuring a Showa shock absorber with adjustable rebound damping and spring preload for personalised performance.
STRONG STOPPING POWER
Radially-mounted Brembo M4.32 monobloc callipers grip large ø320 mm discs to produce powerful braking.
WIDE FAT-TYPE HANDLEBAR
The wide, Fat-type handlebar facilitates rider input, while compact control switches contribute to a sophisticated fit and finish.
FORM & FUNCTION
While the asymmetrical design of the Ram Air intake duct running along the left side of the chassis was dictated by the requirements of the supercharged engine, it is the perfect complement to the Z H2’s fierce sugomi design.
KAWASAKI RIVER MARK
The significance of the Kawasaki River Mark emblem displayed on the headlamp cowl should not be forgotten. Its use, an honour permitted only for very special models, confirms the Z H2 as a flagship model.
LEAD THE WAY WITH LEDs
The headlight and taillight are equipped with LED bulbs for vivid illumination. Modern LED lighting delivers excellent visibility and adds a high-tech accent to aggressive styling.
FULL-COLOUR TFT INSTRUMENTATION
All-digital TFT (thin-film transistor) colour instrumentation gives the cockpit a high-tech, appearance and visibility. The screen’s background colour is selectable, and screen brightness adjusts automatically to suit available light.
KAWASAKI CORNERING MANAGEMENT FUNCTION
From the entry, through the apex, to the corner exit, KCMF modulates brake force (KIBS) and engine power (KTRC) to facilitate smooth transitions from acceleration to braking, to assist you in holding your intended line through the corner.
KAWASAKI TRACTION CONTROL
Three modes cover a wide range of riding conditions, offering either enhanced sport riding performance or the peace of mind under certain conditions to negotiate slippery surfaces with confidence.
KAWASAKI LAUNCH CONTROL MODE
KLCM electronically manages engine output to minimise wheelspin and wheel lift when launching. KLCM should only be used under closed-course conditions; do not use KLCM during everyday riding.
JUST RIDE
For added convenience, Electronic Cruise Control allows the desired speed to be maintained with the press of a button, contributing to comfort for longer, relaxed rides.
KAWASAKI QUICK SHIFTER
Dual-direction Kawasaki Quick Shifter allows both clutchless upshifts and downshifts for seamless acceleration and smooth deceleration.
TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR PHONE
Bluetooth Smartphone Connectivity (using RIDEOLOGY THE APP*) connects riders to their motorcycles wirelessly like never before, allowing you to view vehicle info, riding logs, phone notifications, and general settings.
