2017 Kawasaki Ninja H2, Ninja H2 Carbon and Ninja
H2R (India)
Kawasaki launched the
Kawasaki Ninja 300 SRT Edition in India. Now, the 2017 Kawasaki Ninja H2, 2017
Kawasaki Ninja H2R and the limited edition 2017 Kawasaki Ninja H2 Carbon have
been launched.
The updated Ninja H2 and Ninja H2R debuted at EICMA
2016 along with the new limited edition H2 Carbon. The Ninja H2 was launched in
India in April 2015, while the H2R and H2 Carbon are reaching the Indian shores
for the first time. The 2017 H2’s 1.0-litre supercharged four-cylinder engine
produces 200 PS at 11,000 rpm or 210 PS at 11,000 rpm
with Ram Air and 133.5 Nm of torque at 10,500 rpm. The 2017 Ninja H2R’s
specifications are yet to be revealed. It offers beastly performance but
demands for some special attention.
The Ninja H2 and
Ninja H2R see incorporation of the IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit), updated
KTRC (Kawasaki Traction Control) and KIBS (Kawasaki Intelligent Anti-Lock
Braking System). The exhaust system has been revised to adhere to the Euro 4
emission norms. The ride comfort has been increased with clutchless downshifts.
Ohlins TTX rear suspension and updated instrument
cluster with a bank angle display and max bank recording function (possible
because of incorporation of IMU in the electronics package), a revised boost
indicator with greater segmentation and a percentage display, and an IMU
indicator are among other changes for the 2017 model year.
The Kawasaki Ninja H2 Carbon is a limited edition
model painted in a new variation of the company’s silver-mirror paint with a
matte finish, and features a carbon-fibre upper cowl. It will be limited to 120
copies worldwide. Each unit is individually numbered and has its serial number
stamped into the supercharger plate.
The Kawasaki Ninja H2 is priced at INR 33.30 lakh
(ex-showroom) for the standard variant and at INR 39.80 lakh (ex-showroom) for
the Carbon limited edition model. The Kawasaki Ninja H2R, on the other hand, is
