there is no need and no news about that. The bike is good enough, next year it will be a paint change and 2020 might be a self-repair paint.

The bike already uses ram-air. Its intake is in the front fairing and uses a duct to feed the supercharger intake....

(Not that ram-air would make much difference to the intake manifold pressures after the supercharger...)

Are you confusing the H2 with the H2 SX? Because the 2019 H2 is getting a hp increase, more so just removing some restrictions. But I haven't heard anything about the SX getting a boost.

Our member that went to the motorcycle show said the 2019 was identical.. not even a color change.. somehow i kinda doubt this.

What was said is that the H2 is getting the RAM-air from the H2SX to help it achieve more power.

you probably right but in the future, we might see the self-healing paint, and also MAY BE blind spot indicators on the mirrors. but future.

It's the air filter, intake manifold, spark, the lcd screen and the ECU that taken from the H2 SX.

The ram air is just a pipe and the air filter is exchangeable between the H2 and the H2 SX

The H2 SX 2019 is exactly the same as the 2018
