## What is Kawasaki SPIN?

Kawasaki’s new advanced infotainment functionality can bring new experiences to every ride. Kawasaki SPIN* is a launcher-style iPhone app displayed on the motorcycle’s LCD instrument panel that can be navigated via switches on the handlebars.

Once displayed on the motorcycle’s LCD screen, the app functions using the same interface as an iPhone. 

By downloading third-party apps compatible with Kawasaki SPIN, common functions like navigation, music streaming, and weather reports can be added and used. Currently available apps are listed in Kawasaki SPIN’s library, which will continue to be expanded. The following five apps are included as standard to support your riding lifestyle. 

- Contacts: Displays the iPhone’s Contacts list, allowing the rider to select who to call.
- Phone: Calls can be made by inputting a telephone number directly via switches on the handlebars, and calls can also be received. If the caller’s number is stored in the Contacts list, it is displayed on the LCD screen.
- Maps: The motorcycle’s current location is displayed, and destinations can be searched for. A simple view of available routes can also be displayed.
- Music: A list of songs stored in the iPhone's music library is displayed, and songs can be selected by title. Music can be listened to through a separate headset installed in the helmet.
- Calendar: A calendar function listing upcoming appointments can be displayed. This can be useful for showing meeting times and places while touring.

*The Kawasaki SPIN app is compatible with the Ninja H2 SX and Ninja H2 SX SE (2022 and later models) 
*Headset must be purchased by the rider separately.
*Please read the owner's manual and use this application while keeping safety in mind.

### 1/5 — iOS 26

*2025-11-24, version 2.23.0*

Sadly no longer works since iOS update. Motorbike has now lost all satnav/music making the entire dash useless :(

### 3/5 — Hat Potenzial

*2025-09-25, version 2.23.0*

Nachdem ich den Aktivierungscode angegeben habe, lief soweit alles flüssig. 
- die Navigationspfeile erschienen gut ablesbar auf dem Display meiner Z900 (2025). 
- Die Sprachsteuerung habe ich noch nicht getestet (klappt bei mir vermutlich eh nicht, da es unter meinem Helm regelmäßig zu laut ist). 
- Was dann als erstes auffällt: es handelt sich nicht um ein Navi für Motorradfahrer - irgendwie unverständlich für einen Motorradhersteller, aber naja! 
- Die Sprachsynthese habe ich auch schon besser erlebt aber das ist wohl nicht so einfach. 
- Wenn man das Ziel erreicht hat, stoppt die Navigation automatisch, jedoch nicht die GPS-Kommunikation. Hier muss man das Programm dann killen.

Also, geht da noch was?

P.S.: Bin schon sehr gespannt auf das Preisschild, wenn das erste Jahr kostenloser Navi Nutzung vorbei ist.

### 2/5 — Fussy App

*2025-04-15, version 2.23.0*

You need to leave your phone screen ON the whole time to use this application, it’s a stupid design.

When setting up apps supported by Kawasaki SPIN it needs to open the app, but when it opens the app it closes SPIN and then SPIN looses connection and needs to ask to join again.

When not using SPIN it pops up randomly closing my Google Maps or phone screen.

Please fix this app.

### 1/5 — Ne fonctionne pas sur iPhone 14

*2024-12-08, version 2.22.0*

Comme de nombreux utilisateurs, ne fonctionne tout simplement pas sur iPhone 14, à quand une application qui fonctionne enfin ?

### 2/5 — 使いづらい

*2024-12-05, version 2.22.0*

バイクの電源を入れてから繋がるまでが長い。
繋がった後も画面を開いたままにしないといけない。
ポケットの中で何かに触れてしまい画面が閉じたら接続が切れる。
ツーサポでナビをしながらでも、アラーム等で画面が閉じたらナビも止まる。
位置情報を常に許可にしておかなくてはならない。
これってスマホ固定してスマホナビで良くないか？
繋ぐ意味あるのか？
そもそもバイクの電源入れてからの準備が長すぎて、普段使いは面倒だ。

### 1/5 — Faut appliqué Waze dans spin svp

*2024-10-28, version 2.22.0*

Avoir sa et pas pouvoir mettre Waze directement sur l'écran la h2 sx faut vite une mise à jour

### 1/5 — Très déçu

*2024-09-09, version 2.22.0*

Ne fonctionne pas avec mon i-phone 14. La moto ne détecte même pas mon téléphone.  Le téléphone , dans les paramètres Bluetooth ne détecte pas la moto non-plus . Alors que ça marche très bien avec le téléphone oppo de ma femme . Plus de 20000€ la moto et ça ne fonctionne pas avec iPhone … j’ai la haine .

### 1/5 — Die App ist schlecht, einfach schlecht

*2024-07-13, version 2.21.0*

Ich kenne keinen , der sich über die App mit Motorrad sich verbinden konnte. Am liebsten würde ich 0 Sterne vergeben , geht leider nicht

### 1/5 — Impossible de connecté iPhone 14 plus

*2024-06-07, version 2.21.0*

Dégoûté avant avec un Samsung ça fonctionnait et avec mon iPhone impossible

### 1/5 — What’s the point?

*2024-05-17*

Took me 10 min to plan a trip using the switchgear to type in an address. Can’t specify “avoid tolls” or anything like that. Can’t pick different routes. Can’t select previous destinations and edit the search. Can’t use the phones keyboard. Can’t set up nav on your phone and then use the dashboard. 

Can only use Apple Music 

Can’t lock the screen. Requires WiFi and Bluetooth and wacky permissions. 

What’s the point in setting this up?
