New Kawasaki Ninja H2 debuts globally. Will it come to India?
It is not clear if the new Kawasaki Ninja H2 will come to India or not.
Kawasaki has taken the wrap off the new iteration of the Kawasaki Ninja H2. In an attempt to comply with the stringent Euro5+ emission norms, the Japanese two-wheeler manufacturer has reduced the power output of the supercharged sportsbike significantly.
The previous iteration of the Kawasaki Ninja H2 was discontinued back in 2020. The new version is expected to reach showrooms across global markets by the end of this year. However, it is not clear if Kawasaki will bring the new Ninja H2 to India or not.

New Kawasaki Ninja H2: Design and features
On the design front, the design and trellis frame of the new Ninja H2 remain largely unchanged. The new Kawasaki Ninja H2 standard and Carbon come in a single Mirror Coated Spark Black colour option. The dual-tip exhaust canister has been replaced with a single pipe, the same as the H2 SX and Z H2. The motorcycle weighs 238 kg, which means it is quite heavy.

Apart from that, it gets advanced technologies such as traction control, launch control, cornering ABS, an up/down quickshifter, engine braking control, an electronic Ohlins steering damper, and cruise control.

On the suspension front, it gets manually adjustable 43 mm USD front forks from KYB along with Ohlins TTX36 monoshock at the rear.
