The Z H2 SE will also be available in the same colour priced at Rs 27.22 lakh (ex-showroom). The Kawasaki Ninja H2 R provided the powertrain and structural design for the Z H2. The bikes stand out from the rest of the herd thanks to their supercharged engine. They are propelled by a 998cc inline-four engine with liquid cooling and a centrifugal supercharger. This supercharger can generate 197.2bhp and 137Nm. According to the company, the Supercharger is made to deliver power smoothly and with an instant throttle response. 

Kawasaki Z H2 and Z H2 SE: Design & Features 

The aggressive and muscular design of the Z H2 makes it stand out on the road. The sharp lines and angular features of the bike give it a distinct appearance that sets it apart from other bikes. The naked design emphasizes the Z H2's muscularity and rawness. The bike's front fascia features a sharp and angular headlight flanked by two winglets. The fuel tank is sharp and edgy, while the tail section is simple and sporty.

The Sugomi & Minimalist design language has been used to influence the look of the Z Series' flagship model, the Z H2 SE. The asymmetric Ram Air intake on its left side and its dynamic crouching posture, are all a part of the unique Sugomi design. The model comes with a compact chassis. It gets a new steel trellis structure and has an aluminium pivot plate, displayed prominently, emphasizing design and functional aspects.

The "Kawasaki river mark" can only be used on models with historical significance, making the Z H2 and Z H2 SE one of the few products with this privilege. Since the Z H2 and Z H2 SE are unique products, the use of the Kawasaki river mark is only permitted with special authorization.
