Summary: Kawasaki Motors Corp., U.S.A. (KMC) is recalling certain 2018-2020 Ninja H2 SX, Ninja H2 SXSE, and Ninja H2 SXSE+ motorcycles. In the event of a missed shift, the engine electronic control unit (ECU) programming cannot control a sudden increase in engine RPM. If the gears re-engage at a high RPM, damage may occur to the output gear resulting in the inability to shift gears.

Remedy: KMC will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the ECU software, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin November 16, 2020. Owners may contact KMC customer service at 1-866-802-9381. KMC’s number for this recall is MC20-10.
