No... It's ugly,I'll stick with my 2017 z1000r. Nice power but looks is a total let down. And the new Ducati 2020 Streetfighter is 217hp,and 220hp with a full system. I'll keep what I've got...

If i decide to make the jump i wont hold it against anyone (as the general consensus its an ugly duckling) but at the end of the day....it makes some serious power...its just a case of ironing out the weight issues and looks although youre stuck with that headlight...!
And if i do....i aint getting rid of the gen 4!

Smart move Comfy, you have transformed your Z1000 and certainly a keeper. Let’s see what the H2 Z is like on the road, I guess it will be around March 2020 before they are in the dealers and test rides available. On the looks, apart from the exhaust it does not look that different from the current lines of the 2019 Z1000

Without a doubt.... I'll be taking loads of photos... Its a little like the gen4.... Y'have to see past the superficial stuff... Although i do agree the front headlight you ain't doing anything with!

I agree,looking past the disappointment that I feel in design,and I do wish it was like the pick comphysofa put up. But all joking aside it is a good bike,and the power,like u all state is some power,for a naked and it's not a total failure,by a long shot,it is what it is,and what a machine,I still want to see one in the flesh... And it will be very,very interesting what people like us on here would or will do with it,when it comes to aftermarket parts,it could look a totally different bike with a bit of tweeking... It will still be good to see the outcome of what it can look like...

Yeah... If it was like that pic you'd have had to fucking beat me off with a shitty stick..! Seriously I'd have put my name down for one there and then...

Ooow... Yes, whoever put that pic up in the first place should go and ask Kawasaki for a job.... I would have been so pissed that I couldn't afford one if it looked like that pic. As is I'm not to bothered I can't afford one looking at what they put out,yes it's quick,and the engine is good,but until you're sat at at the lights and a 2020 Ducati Streetfighter pulls up at 217/220hp,u will feel pissed...

Yeah... But... Crucially if you could loose say.... 20kilos which is pretty doable... An ecu flash will give you 260 at the wheel.... No matter what you do to an sf it ain't never going to make that!

Same here I would defo have been a buyer I been waiting g 2 years.. but I have to visually like a bike, I have to turn around and look back and think dam that bike looks good, and I know the new kwak has an engine to die for, admittedly 99 percent of riders will never touch its true potential and that includes me, but we would use the acceleration and the rider aids, essential on a 200bhp beast are all there but I cant get over the ugliness.. and after dropping 16 grand u dont wanna be spending more cash to change the looks and by the time you had you could have spent the cash and the New Ducati which is a superior bike in every feild and by god it looks good ..

Yes... Admittedly,the Ducati has stolen the look of a gen 4 zed,but that,and the pic comphysofa put up is what it should look like... That z1000h has a face only a mother could love,and it doesn't do anything for me,but like the Yamaha niken there's someone out there for it. But that zed h is as ugly as a Yamaha niken.... Lmfao....

Taking orders for early 2020,£250 deposit... But u can look at it,on pic's better.... It's still an ugly bike thow,that headlight may look better if it's blacked out,tinted,may blend in better...
