ACCESSORIES

Akrapovic end can £1189

» Titanium with a carbon spouty bit. Road legal, gives a sniff more power, slightly alters the note, and saves 3kg or so. Standard on Performance model.

Heated grips £289

» Not having as stock on a techy £16k bike seems like an oversight these days. These use a Hondastyle control on the left grip. Nobrainer for the UK, but not cheap.

Large meter cover £111

» Another part that’s included on the Performance model, and that every Z H2 should have. The few extra centimetres and subtle flick make an appreciable difference.

Tyre warmers £751

» Might seem like overkill for road riders, but the Zed steers stodgily until the front tyre is warm. These would allow full tilt immediately on a quick blast.
