Carbon H2 ^

My Local dealer had 2 2022's sitting on the floor yesterday i bought 1 of them yesterday ! 1500 off no freight no prep!!! I got really lucky as i was not looking for this bike and Just purchased a 22 S1000rr in mid june but i made the mistake of accepting an offer of a test ride and then could not resist such a different special bike ..I would expect people to probably be getting their orders soon being that there was two on the floor in past 3 days -seems stuff is trickling in now as inventory has been really hit or miss past 8 months and have not seen any yamaha products in a dogs age either i think they are worse than kawasaki with inventory !!

You sure they were H2’s and not SX’s? Seems… unlikely not one but two people paid the deposit and then walked away.

Do you know if they refund deposits or only store credit?

Deposits are nonrefundable. Since it’s an order from the factory, I don’t think you get store credit either.

Not totally sure i think i glanced at it .It was not green like mine . had a painted trellis frame i was really excited to be getting what i got so i didnt pay to much attention to the showroom i think the tank looked silver/grey the day before i saw another one it was sharp too red frame and said supercharged in red my frien was looking at that one . Dealer said they had a total of 5 h2 carbons coming in september late or early october because i was interested in grabing one of those too if i didnt keep my s1000rr

can a dealer order H2 carbons for inventory if they lay out the deposits !!!

i haven’t heard of a dealership making orders like that. I suppose it’s possible though. Just seems unlikely.

Picked mine up 1 Sept. I was also told there will be a 2023 model year and it will be the last.

I don’t really believe that. I’ve heard “20XX will be the last year for the H2” so many times now.

Lol I bet haha. They will prob keep producing them until the money stops rolling in.

I live in the California Bay Area and I'm the only one who ordered a 2022 according to my dealer. I don't think the market for these is that big anymore, if it ever was.

This one will be replacing my 2015 H2 that sadly got destroyed last year (just under 20k miles). In all my time with it, I've never seen another one around here.

Well it is a $30k+ motorcycle. A lot of people may have a hard time justifying that price. It is a trophy bike more than anything. I mean, a turbo’d ZX14R would probably beat it on the drag strip and a zx10r would beat it on track.

Beautiful machine, but it is Kawasaki saying “my dick is bigger than yours” to all the competition.

It has finally arrived at dealership. Evotech rad guard to be installed before being transported to me. It's been quite a wait for this day to come...

 

[H2015]

Just responded to your post on KawasakiWorld too,
Enjoy!

 

[Kyjelly]

It has arrived this morning and so the break in process begins once all the rain is gone. 6 months of waiting is finally over!

 

[pieter3d]

I was told Oct 17th, but still nothing....

Mine was built in August so yours shouldn't be too far away.

So after only a couple weeks of ownership, the paint on my 2022 ninja h2 started peeling off and separating into tissue like flakes. Dealer looked at it and said that it definitely looks like poor prep work from Kawasaki. The layer underneath still have bubbling/orange peel. They’re going to file a claim and have my back to have Kawasaki cover it under warranty. I’ll get some pictures the next time I go to the dealer.
