Additionally, riders can opt to download third-party apps to add to their Kawasaki SPIN library to be able to interact with them on the TFT display. Available apps include Sygic (navigation), SENA (headset communication), and more. Kawasaki SPIN also allows riders access to view vehicle info, riding log, phone notifications, and general settings. Kawasaki SPIN app is not intended for use during vehicle operation. Only use SPIN app when the vehicle is not being operated and it is safe to do so.
• FULL, MIDDLE, & LOW: The Ninja H2® SX SE hypersport comes with three power modes: Full, Middle, and Low, allowing riders to select power delivery to suit their preference and riding conditions.
• EXCELLENT VISIBILITY: The Ninja H2® SX SE is equipped with LED lights from headlamp to taillight to deliver excellent visibility. The Auto Hi-Beam (AHB) sensor automatically turns the high beam lights on and off as necessary depending on brightness ahead.
• SUITED TO YOUR RIDE: The Kawasaki Engine Braking Control (KEBC) system allows riders to set engine braking according to their desired preference. When the system is activated, the engine braking effect is reduced, providing less interference when sport riding.

Performance

• UNMATCHED PERFORMANCE: The massive power of the Ninja H2® SX SE hypersport’s balanced supercharged engine demands a multitude of high-performance components to ensure an effortless yet powerful experience to dominate the open road.
• SUPERSPORT-GRADE: Kawasaki Electronic Control Suspension (KECS) combines high-quality components with the latest electronic control technology to adjust damping in real-time based on riding conditions. Innovative software incorporates Showa's Skyhook EERA (Electronically Equipped Ride Adjustment) technology to deliver an exeptionally composed ride, contributing to rider comfort and enjoyment.
• SUPERB STOPPING POWER: In the front, a Brembo radial-pump brake master cylinder, 2 massive 320mm semi-floating discs are gripped by dual radial-mount, opposed 4-piston, Brembo Stylema® monobloc calipers, delivering strong braking force and superb feel. In the rear, a 250mm disc with twin-piston caliper provides strong braking performance.
• KAWASAKI INTELLIGENT ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM: ABS is a standard feature. The IMU-enabled Kawasaki Intelligent Anti-Lock Brake System (KIBS) is a supersport-grade high-precision multi-sensing ABS brake assistance system that uses high-precision control to modulate brake pressure during sport riding.
• STYLISH & SPORTY: The cast aluminum wheels were designed for optimized rigidity, which contributes to high-speed stability whether riding alone, or with a passenger and cargo. The star-pattern 5-spoke wheel design offers optimum rigidity for high-power performance at highway speeds.
• RIGID & DURABLE: The lightweight trellis frame provides strength to harness the incredible power of the supercharged engine and features a balanced flex to achieve optimal rigidity for both sport riding and comfortable sport touring. The Ninja H2® SX SE hypersport shares a trellis frame design similar to that of the Ninja H2® ABS and Ninja H2®R ABS hypersports but has been re-engineered to accommodate passengers and luggage. A USB-type power outlet is conveniently hidden under the rear seat, offering a source for powering accessories.

Sport Touring Capability

• COMFORT FOR THE JOURNEY: The sporty yet relaxed riding position of the Ninja H2® SX SE hypersport accommodates solo and 2-up riding for a wide variety of riding situations. The ergonomically designed front seat provides comfort for long-distance rides and accommodates position changes for sportier riding. Both rider and passenger seats are wider than previous iterations, in addition to revised shapes, thickness, and density that add to rider and passenger comfort.
• GO THE DISTANCE: The Ninja H2® SX SE hypersport’s superb fuel efficiency combined with a 5-gal fuel tank delivers outstanding cruising range. Added comfort comes thanks to a balance of wind protection and aerodynamics produced by the full-fairing bodywork.

Supercharged Power

• POWER FOR THE DISTANCE: The Ninja H2® SX SE hypersport is powered by a supercharged 998cc inline four-cylinder engine, designed to deliver power where it is most useful, in the low- to mid-range, in a fuel-efficient manner. With this powerful engine at the core, Kawasaki has created one of the most advanced and well-balanced motorcycles in performance, comfort, and efficiency that prioritizes everyday usability for an array of street-riding conditions.
• ABSOLUTE POWER: The balanced supercharged engine was developed for everyday street riding and delivers a versatile engine character that supports relaxed long-distance riding, easy manageability at slow speeds, exhilarating acceleration, and superb fuel efficiency.
• POWERFUL & EFFICIENT: The supercharger was designed to offer both power and fuel efficiency. Operating in sync with the engine, the supercharger allows high-efficiency operation over a wider range of conditions. Because the supercharger design is highly efficient, compressed intake air is minimally heated and, as a result, no intercooler is necessary.
• OPTIMAL AIRFLOW: To match the airflow requirements of the supercharged engine, the Ninja H2® SX SE hypersport was designed with a Ram Air duct which routes fresh air to the supercharger in as straight a line as possible, contributing to the increased supercharger efficiency. Air supplied to the supercharger enters via a single Ram Air intake in the left side of the upper cowl to optimize flow.
• PRECISELY ENGINEERED: The shape and angle of the supercharger impeller blades are optimized for the high-efficiency engine. The complex impeller is formed from a forged aluminum block using a 5-axis CNC machining center for precision and durability. Grooves etched into the blade surfaces help direct the airflow.
• BUILT FOR PERFORMANCE: The planetary gear train runs off the crankshaft—with speed stepped up by an intermediary gear—ultimately producing an impeller rotation of 9.2x the crank speed, reaching maximum speeds of nearly 130,000 rpm, to produce optimal airflow.
