Kawasaki Ninja H2 SX SE 2022

The Kawasaki Ninja H2 SX SE is certainly one of the nippiest touring motorbikes on the market. But is it also one of the best tourers? The lush equipment and electronics of Kawasaki's technological flagship offer comfort, stability and function flawlessly. You have to know how to deal with the powerful engine and somewhat sluggish turn-in behaviour, but then the Ninja H2 SX SE is fun to ride even in tight corners. Finally, the ergonomics determine whether the bike is suitable for travelling. Here, everyone has to decide for himself or herself whether he or she is comfortable with the very sporty stance. If so, the Kawasaki Ninja H2 SX SE is a formidable touring machine that cuts a fine figure from the motorway to the Alpine pass.
