Amid the turmoil of plots, government defeats, resignations and riots, the United Kingdom’s choice to leave the European Union and make its own way in the world has left the country more fractured than ever. At the heart of the chaos is Alan, a special adviser to a government minister; Mitra, a Labour MP; Jenny, a TV news producer; and Davey, a UKIP activist.

Andy is wrapping up his time on the Kawasaki Z-H2 SE, so what are his final thoughts? Catch up on his thoughts after 2 weeks, 6 weeks, and 4 months. Finding myself with a couple of days available and with limited time remaining with this bike in my possession, I decided to plan a mini road trip. I have a great fondness for Scotland so plotted a route up to ride around the borders with an overnight stay.

Andy Bell shares his thoughts on the Kawasaki Z-H2 SE, six weeks in. If you missed Andy’s first impressions, read part 1 here. After receiving the Zed a bit later into the year than I had preferred, I was concerned how often I’d be able to get out during the better weather days, but we’ve had some good fortune over the last few weeks with plenty of dry time to get out and about to appreciate this bike.

When you are offered a bike as a Termer, it’s hard to say no to something you’d rather not have for fear of sounding ungrateful or like a spoiled kid. When I was offered a Kawasaki Z-H2 SE, I didn’t have to make any fake noises or feign any signs of pleasure. I have only covered a few miles on one of these bikes before now, when FB put one through its paces in last year’s supernaked test, and I remember how I was left feeling that I wanted more time on it.
