While still street-legal and street-able, the 2019 Kawasaki Ninja H2 Carbon Sports Motorcycle has allowed engineers to chase pure performance. It was decided to create a particular edition variant of the Ninja H2 with a carbon fiber front body and unique symbols. This model is known as the Ninja H2 Carbon. The free, track-only Ninja H2TMR motorbike was indeed Built Beyond Belief, and the Ninja H2 and Ninja H2 Carbon follow in its footsteps.
Kawasaki has installed Brembo’s newest high-spec brakes to the Ninja H2 in addition to the greater horsepower. Smartphone Connectivity allows riders to connect to their motorcycles wirelessly using a new TFT (thin-film transistor) color instrumentation display with four configurable display settings. New Bridges tone RS11 tires put all that muscle and cutting-edge engineering to good use on the road.
2019 Kawasaki Ninja H2 Carbon Sports Motorcycle – Features and Specs
NEW More Powerful Engine
The Ninja H2’s turbocharged acceleration is more exciting than ever, thanks to the considerable enhancements. Due to feedback from the “balanced supercharged” engine of the Ninja H2TM’ SX motorbike, the new engine’s performance does not affect fuel economy, consumption, or range. A new air filter, brand new intake chamber, and spark plugs all contribute to the gain in horsepower.
NEW Brembo Stylema Calipers
Brembo Stylema front calipers have been added on the 2019 Ninja H2, Ninja H2 Carbon, and Ninja H2R hyper sportbikes. To enhance the high-tech innovation and luxury quality of the Ninja H2, Ninja H2 Carbon, and Ninja H2R, the Stylema calipers gripping semi-floating 330mm discs are fitted with KIBS ABS.
NEW Bridges tone Battlax RS11 Sport Tires
With all-new Bridges tone Battlax RS11 sport tires (12/70-17 up front, 200/55-17 outback), the Ninja H2 and Ninja H2 Carbon continue to be technologically advanced.
NEW TFT Color Instrumentation
An analog tachometer and a high-quality full-color TFT LCD screen are two of the features that contribute to the Ninja H2’s premium quality. Riders may prioritize the information they wish to view based on the kind of riding they are performing using four different display modes.
TFT technology is used to create a high-quality full-color display that’s easy to see. To change the screen’s color (black or white) and brightness, all you have to do is press a single button on the device. Riders may choose from four different display options in addition to the scrollable multi-function windows. Simple handlebars control the rider’s complete control over selecting modes and viewing information.
As well as speedometer and gear position indicator, display functions include odometer (current mileage and average mileage), bank angle display and max bank angle recording function; coolant temperature (intake air chamber) temperature; boost indicator (intake air chamber) temperature; clock; and Economical Riding Indicator (ERI).
NEW Smartphone Connectivity
The 2019 Ninja H2 model from Kawasaki is the first motorbike to have smartphone connectivity. Riders may connect to their motorcycles wirelessly thanks to a chip embedded in the instrument panel. Several instrument functions may be accessed, recorded, and reviewed using a smartphone app, improving the motorcycle experience. The following information may be accessed through the app on the linked smartphone:
- Information about the vehicle, such as fuel level, odometer, trip meter, maintenance schedule, battery status, etc.
- GPS route information, speed, rpm, gear position, and fuel economy are all included in the ride log.
It is possible to get notifications on the car’s instrument display when a call, text, or email is received from a smartphone connected to the bike.
Additionally, the smartphone may be used to adjust the vehicle’s general display settings (such as power or riding modes and ride assistance aids, such as the Kawasaki Quick Shifter (KS)).
When not on the motorbike, you may still use the app. As long as a rider has the app open and is riding, your bike and phone are constantly linked. After turning off the engine or removing the smartphone from the instrument chip’s range, the app saves the most recent riding data and makes it available for viewing on the smartphone. The app will affect any adjustments you make even if you don’t have the engine running or aren’t within range as soon as you turn it on and turn the app on.
NEW All-LED Lighting
There are new LED turn signals and an LED license plate lamp on the 2019 Kawasaki Ninja H2 Carbon, which means all lighting equipment (headlamp, position lights, taillight, and turn signals) are now LED technology.
Styling
The Ninja H2’s supercharged engine has been given a new “Supercharged” badge to indicate the vehicle’s improved performance. Images of high-velocity air being whirled about provide a sensation of speed, while red color accents highlight this high-performance engine’s individuality. Wheel pinstripes, a new addition for 2019, are another way to portray a high-class image.
NEW Highly Durable Paint
Kawasaki’s Highly Durable Paint is also brand new (used on all non-carbon bodywork parts). Using a unique coating, the fresh paint can heal minor scratches, allowing the color to keep its high-quality surface during typical wear and tear. Microscopically soft and hard segments behave like a chemical spring, generating a trampoline effect that absorbs several shocks.
Kawasaki Ninja H2™R
For the second year in a row, the Kawasaki Ninja H2TMR hyper sport motorbike reigns supreme as the most sought-after motorcycle globally. Kawasaki’s Highly Durable Paint and Brembo Stylema® Front Calipers are among the new features for 2019.
