webAutoby's 2026 Japanese Motorcycle Encyclopedia features the Kawasaki Ninja H2 SX SE. Built around a supercharged engine, this flagship sport tourer combines long-distance comfort with overwhelming power. Its one-of-a-kind supercharged feel gives it a unique presence in this category.
Kawasaki's obsession with putting a supercharger on a production tourer — I don't hate it. That sudden surge of acceleration is unforgettable once you've felt it. There's an excitement here that doesn't fit inside the 'tourer' box. Just imagining the feel of boost kicking in on corner exit makes me grin. Japanese manufacturers keep building this kind of gloriously deranged machine, and that's something to be proud of.

Balancing long-distance comfort with real power - that's exactly one ideal form of a touring bike.
What's actually different between a supercharger and a turbo?
A turbo forces air in using exhaust gas energy, while a supercharger spins the compressor directly off engine power, so its characteristic is good response even from low revs.
It's a luxury tourer in a different direction from something like BMW's K1600 - just having forced induction already makes it one of a kind.
They push overwhelming power as the selling point, but factoring in weight and price, it's a pretty niche choice as a practical tourer.
Since the selling point is balancing long-distance comfort with power, I'd say it's a category-specific model aimed at a different customer base than a pure tourer.
A production bike with a supercharger onboard is a lone-standing thing that basically only Kawasaki does.
I've heard that forced-induction feel is addictive enough that once you experience it you can't go back to another bike - the H2 SX really is in a class of its own.
