Has your dealer given any indication of future service costs?

That is the one area that would put me off owning the ZH2.

I might be visiting Texas this week.

And keep the Z1000 for those days when visibility conditions means no flying.

I change my own oil, tires and brake pads and could revalve my shock if I felt i needed to. Its a little stiff but Ill wait till it breaks in a bit before deciding. i dont really trust shop mechanics, they have no skin in the game. I do.. my skin. I actually modified my muffler baffle so it wont blow out, and its awesome. Waiting for carbon fiber bits to come to market, and riding riding riding. I didn't know I would love this bike. I went for it - I love it. I didnt know I would love my first Z either.
wtf

I say, what if I died? What if I chose to not buy this bike? What if I chose rational? What if indeed. Choose to live this day with the life you want. fK all and do what you will and be better man for it.

I cant say YOU will love it, but I certainly do.

I retract that statement. Im well over 1000 miles as of today, and I can say without a doubt if you like your Z you will absolutely love the ZH2 holy sht this thing hauls ass! You would not regret buying one i have found no disappointment. It rides like my old Z, on steroids

Just watching this older 2016 H2 & a ZX10.

Fun starts around 5.43 & fireworks at 7.20.

And you have a 2020!

Watch "2016 Supercharged Kawasaki H2 and Zx-10 Full Power!" on YouTube

Oh they are different bikes. The Z-H2 is to the H2 what the Z1OOO is to the ZX1O. Geared shorter for more kick, less top speed. Of course, being sans fairing, top speed isnt where the Z lives. Its an urban gorilla, making more torque lower in the R's and more upright position means more comfort, more seat time. The H2 has a lower compression ratio, meaning you can cram more boost (air/fuel) in the chamber making more HP safely. The Z-H2 is already maxed out with 11:8:1 comp, meaning the effective boost PSI that can be applied is already there @200hp. When the brains figure out the ECU there may (should) be more HP to be found, but honestly, I lifted the front shifting into 5th at 100+ and that was with wheelie control on. its fast enough for me, and If I ever think I need more power, I'll turn off the TC. Got 1,200mi so far, and I'm loving it.

2WHEELS,
Do you agree?

Well, the adjustability of the shock is not in question. It seems that heavier riders get further into the stroke, and have a worse time with it than I do. Im only 190~ lbs with gear so its tolerable. Like I said it's a Z! Shes a rough mistress
