The Supercharged Streetfighter
Unparalleled street performance is centred around a Balanced Supercharged Engine and a compact, lightweight design. Feel the ultimate rush on the most exhilarating Z motorcycle ever.
Dimensions Chosen for Excellent Turning Characteristics
Complementing the supercharged engine’s manageable low-mid range power delivery, the chassis design was carefully considered to ensure excellent turning characteristics at low and medium speeds. Caster angle, fork offset and wheelbase were all carefully selected to ensure the ideal dimensions to deliver the light handling for which Kawasaki’s Z Supernaked models are renowned.
Predatory Design
Minimal bodywork, maximum attitude. That’s the mantra of the Z H2 Supernaked design. A raw and distinctive profile is indicative of aggressive performance and unapologetic boldness.
State-of-the-Art Technology
Kawasaki’s top-level electronic rider support systems, enhanced with feedback from a compact Bosch IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit), allow riders to harness the Z H2’s supercharged power and take the streets with confidence and swagger.
