Great video. It certainly isn't the the most competitive neither does it have the best brakes or suspension but man does it make you feel good and put a massive smile on your face. I'll be doing the full review on the Z H2 2021 in the coming weeks, then have some mods to add such as the Scorpion can and Sprint filter (doing videos for those too). Will be an excellent comparison to the nakeds I have already done videos for.
The whistle is the supercharger spinning around, in case you wasn't aware.
Jup, I know but guess I just forgot to explain that... Thansk anyways though :)
Better looking than a MT10 for sure.
Lols less transform-y at least 👌
Much more costly too. Lol
Dr Guru much more hp also 20-25hp
@@yanroeung6289 that's the point, whole different level of a bike.
But is it faster tho
So many priceless raactions and distractions throughtout this video haha! Love the first impression! I think the bike definitely is something of itself!
I’m not even joking when I say I’m easily distracted! You have no idea how many times I’ve tried to get a single coherent sentence out of my mouth without getting distracted 😂
Close, but not quite. The sound he is hearing is called wastegate flutter. Your only hearing it when he releases the throttle which slams the throttle plate close. However there is still pressurized air inside the intake tract. This pressure has to go somewhere. That’s what wastegates are for. The pressurized air will push open the gate, releasing pressure on a spring. This releasing of pressure past the wastegate causes it to flutter, or open and close rapidly causing the sound. 😀✌️
Beast of a bike! Looking forward to the proper review 👍👍
A beast indeed! Thanks 🥰
Love the look and the sound 💯
The sound is something I dream off to this date 🥰
Thanks for this awsome review! I had to have one for myself, can't wait for it to arrive 👍🛵
Congrats man! May it bing you a lot of joy 🙌😍
Why havent I seen this before now?? Too bad my footage got wrecked from my testride. Amazing and HUGE-feeling bike!
Whaat RIP footage :(
The bike looks a lot better in person...very futuristic !
I bought the Ninja H2_ and it’s not a beauty but it’s a beast🤘
Enjoy the bike life
Oh man, enjoy your H2👌
Mr.Drakenhoff thanks mate it’s a track only machine so I’m riding it just 8-10 times a year😅
Have a great week buddy
Wooow, What a monster!
Ermax it truly is!
Weird, in my country, the price difference between this and the MT10 is less than $2000.
Not a small amount, but for the value you're getting though...
Also initial impression of it... it takes speeds EFFORTLESSLY. It doesn't feel like it struggles, and that makes the ride very comfortable.
100% agree with you! no struggles from this bikes engine ;)
Mean Machine🔥🔥🤘
This bike IS a machine!
Dream bike ❤️🔥 Kawasaki ZH2 💚🖤
It’s a beast! 😍
@@MrDrakenhoff yes ❤️
Gleder meg til neste video av denne sykkelen! 😁
Nice Bike :) Drakenhoff Gleder meg til review
Kan bli bra detta 👌
Good choice !
Tnx bud
What's the price of zh2 in your country ??
Which action cam are you using?
Gopro hero 7 Black👋
@@MrDrakenhoff awesome quality
Mileage kya hai bhai
Which one is better this zh2 or bmw s1000r ?
Northwest Side have not been able to test the s1000r yet, so i’m not really quelified to answer that...BUT the BMW probably has better electronics and suspension from what i’m hearing from others.
Mr.Drakenhoff thank you man, will be fine if you have the opportunity to do a video comparison between this two bikes 👍
Is this a good beginner bike
Probably not my first choice, but if you have the discipline for it, yeah sure 👍
Yeah it’s a great beginner bike make sure you buy a coffin with it
“Feels incredibly stable somehow”. Um yeah it’s not somehow, it’s due to the high quality Showa suspension components. You’re noticing a huge difference in stability versus the mt09 because the mt09 has budget suspension, the ZH2 has proper Showa fully adjustable ans in my opinion Showa is a close runner up to Öhlins. Someone once told me suspension is everything and it really is !
I agree! Just to fill in on that the SP model, which I am most familiar with when it comes to the MT09s, have upgraded suspension. I'm not sure if this or the "regular" MT is the one you are refering to?
Suspension is definitely a key to everything though!
Tnx
Where can I test ride it ?
Monsterbike, Drammen - but I think they have the undated SE version this year
Lean down on the bike with bent elbows a bit more. Less input is good. Keep weight off the bars.
I’ll take that into consideration. Thanks! :)
How tall are you?
185cm
REED FOR SPEED!!!
REED MOTOVLOG ! 💪🔥🇵🇭
is it as power full as h2
cool right?
Not as powerful, tuned more for roads instead of track.
But that's not to say it's not powerful.
It's like saying it's a tuned down rocket... which means it's still pretty fucking fast.
🤩
🤩
is english your native language? doesn't sound like it anyway🤔 would be nice to see the videos in german too
Oh I can assure you my German is by far worse! My native language is Norwegian, and the only words I know in german is either offensive or pure rubbish 😅 but thank you for thinking I’m German!
I think with the charger the engine
Wears out quicker I heard people
Like the 14 more. But for all purpose bike I will take the 900
You really don't need that much
Power unless u want to get chase
By a chopper like I was once at 160 mph. The 900 is very fast and
U can get around much easier and
Go off road and no matter how fast and how long u drive a 900
U cannot hurt the moter or trans or clutch or any thing else so b
Practical a 900 is the wise est
Choice and watch out for dogs
And deer when u are in the mountains or country👱⚡
Comfort on the Kawasaki Z900 is subjective though. For me the Z900 is cramped and very uncomfortable. I am only 5' 7" and would not own the Kawasaki Z900 because of the high and back foot peg location. Pure misery to ride for any length of time.
@@R1jamn u could wear boots that will ease your height I love the feal and power on the Harley
114 is ok only about 95 hp
The 900 has about 110 hp and is lighter, I just need the heated grips
And windshield made menny trips from Vegas to FLa on a 1000 ltd Kawasaki drove fast in the heat never broke down or let up and I drove fast very fast all the time
Wow you look huge on that bike haha
The bike itself actually isn’t humongous, and I’d like to think that I’m pretty average myself 😅
Man check out my helmet and let me know what do you think lol I was surprised when saw you have similar crazy
Good bike, extreme power... but it is too heavy! 239 kg in too many
It’s definietly a few kilos more that I would have hoped for, but don’t let the numbers fool you into thinking this isn’t fun!
Too heavy for what? Your girly ass? 😂
It’s a mans muscle bike not a track bike
@@ur2slob724 You don't know the basics of physics. when a bike has too much mass it is dangerous in road.
@@memeacademy2295 😂😂😂 dam you should take all the Harleys off the roads mate there way too dangerous because there too heavy
You bloody muppet go ride your scooter
@@ur2slob724 harley is made to ride slow... is complitely different
In my opinion in terms of look the ZH2 looks like shit compared to the Z 1000. Kawasaki lost the principle of naked bikes. Building fairing around the steering does not make it naked any more apart those visible pipes that made it more worse.
Going up till 110 - 120 and then okay . . . okay . . . :)
It was more than enough.. :P
You sound kinda Norwegian tbh
Casper Norden guilty 😅 100% a Norwegian
Trying too hard. There’s nothing polarising/controversial about the H2/Z H2’s looks. They are no Hayabusas!
Maybe not to the same extent! :)
only sold 19( jan-Juni 2019) bikes totally in Norway,ugly design. KTM 1290SDR and Ducati Streetfighter (43 sold KTM) and 37.. it is a reason for that. .
Thomas I guess - Statistics don’t lie, but I wouldn’t base what I buy on what is the most sold bike out there. 😜 if nothing else This just shows that we all have different taste and opinions 🙌
Great video , but to buy Kawasaki Z H2 that don`t sell is a recipe to loos a bunch of money in the
aftermarket.I would rather buy a bike that are popular as used and get a good deal on a brand new motorbike every 2 year. Take a trip to Allsupermoto in stavanger and try the new KTM 1290SDR they have a demo bike. I am a Kawasaki Fan and hope for a new Z1000 2021.
@@PsGetSid_ about re-sale value, you're right... I had the same thing with my Tuono; however, I'd prefer to take a small financial hit when selling it a few years later over riding something that 'everyone' has; I guess I like to feel special ;) For me the motorbike is more emotional than rational... I think it's like that for many people, otherwise everyone would ride a BMW GS ;)
@@joeridestrijcker445 thanks for answer :)
Less talking, more speeding!
Anders Johansson sorry, no can do 😅
@@MrDrakenhoff Meh! Hehe. Ok. I understand. ;)
Worst review ever....congrats
You should check out my full review. Much more in depth!
ZH2 is Ugly , Heavy & was Outdated even at launch... Substandard suspension / glorified drag bike.
This recent trend of 175+bhp super nakeds is a bit silly.
Agreed.. It's not my cup of tea.
Why is it outdated? Ugly to you , not to everyone else. Suspension is good for the road, not so good for the track.Yes it is really too much for the road but so are all Hyper nakeds and 1000 cc + supersports bikes. But so are Ferrarri's , porsche's etc. You don't have to own one. It's a free life so ride what you want and be happy dude.
@@fyorbane Sorry but it is one ugly beast... Some kind of kawasaki abomination that should have never been released. Fast yes! Ugly yes!
@@fyorbane The ZH2 @ 239 kg / 527 pounds - looks & feels like a bloated hamster, girthy & fat...
Its basically a Z900, tying to compete in the Hyper nakeds category, for as cheaply as possible!!
Just listen to what, Drakenhoff says from 5:21 regarding it's look's... lol 'struggling' to be nice... And he ain't the only one either.
Everyone who reviews it says the same thing about its looks, it ain't great & at best subjective.
Suspension is cheap bro... Saying " is good for the road" is in & of itself a compromise.
197bhp - brand new Hyper naked in 2020...
Why isn't the Suspension fantastic, like the rest of the bikes in its class?
Same deal with the breaks, cheap brembos with 'Nissan master cylinder' lol.
The stuff that counts, Its all budget parts!
The majority of people who buy this bike are fat old dudes in their 50's - having there 4th or 5th midlife crisis.
I feel sorry for anyone who owns one, what a waste of money.
I don't think it's ugly at all, and I don't mind that companies make overpowered street bikes. I'll never own one myself but I think it's cool that they just decide to make them anyway for the hell of it.
