While the H feels narrower at the tank it felt much wider at the seat. It may be due to the aftermarket gripper seat but I don't know for sure. It was also taller than my E even though I have KX forks on mine. I couldn't touch both feet to the ground while seated like my E. The one thing that really stood out to me, though, was how much louder the KIPS was on the H. Man, it was annoyingly loud! It is a low hour bike that is very well maintained so I know it is just the bike and not some other issue. Power felt pretty good but it definitely doesn't have the low end the E does. The E just has more power everywhere and a lot more over rev. BTW, the H bike has an FMF "Rev" pipe with Q silencer and RAD valve so it is somewhat similar in power mods as to my bike.
In conclusion, the H is a nice bike and I had a blast riding it but I still like the E better. The E just fits me better and I also like the power of the E over the H (especially the low end).
Seriously, maybe I'll have to record a vid before I give it back so you guys can hear it. I honestly didn't think there would be really any difference in the KIPS sound but it was significantly louder.
