I put a deposit on one and had a test ride but didn't like it.
I found the fuelling pretty crap, ticking over at 1500rpm and slow to come off the throttle, it hits 2000rpm then slowly goes down to 1500rpm, not great in town or approaching a corner wanting to throttle off. it will literally run on with no throttle input....It was also very snatchy and not smooth below 6000rpm. But man it flies when that supercharger kicks in. Definitely ballistic but not nice to ride unless you're giving it a handful.
Suspension was not good, batting you up the arse with the front feeling a bit vague and it was hard work if you pushed it, I must admit crap road surfaces and it only dried up enough to begin pushing it towards the end of the ride......
Both things could be fixed with a re-map and a visit to MCT but you shouldn't have to on a bike costing this much.
Quick shifter wasn't that smooth, the one on my GS LC works better.
Be interested to see how others get on and especially if anyone gets a re-map or suspension set up.
Shame as I really wanted to have one. Going to take another test ride next week as its done a few miles now and they tell me the suspension has been adjusted. It hadn't been set up and apparently there was no pre load adjusted on it.....
Yes I was pretty disappointed tbh, I came away thinking I shouldn't be trading my ZZR in. They still have that in the showroom so I'm contemplating taking it back.
I'll get another test ride on the H2 this week methinks, encouraging to hear your like yours. Going to have a look on a few other forums to see what else I can find....
I rode a demo bike in Jersey a few weeks back-they insisted I take it out as my bike had been ordered through them as my Guernsey dealer is a subsidiary.
That bike felt the same as mine which I collected a week later.
I've only done 110 miles (I'm sat in the Seychelles typing this) but I didn't find any of the problems you encountered.
Handling seems very good.The suspension is just fine,and we have some very bumpy roads.
The fuelling is spot on as is the quickshifter.It provides very smooth changes,especially when above 2500 rpm which I think is the lower limit for its designed use.
I'm very pleased with my limited exposure to it so far.
Not done much mileage but I’d say the fuelling is spot on , as was the demo bike I rode in Jersey.
The final bits of the ‘Performance Touring’ kit arrived .
The pannier brackets/rubbers were on back order as were the frame sliders .
All fitted very simply . The panniers are basically the same as on the Versys and SX. They tuck in well but aren’t very big.
Fitted a Telferizer mount too :
