A cruiser should be big, American, have oodles of chrome and a throaty exhaust. Well, this one certainly doesn’t fit that description. So, what do we make of the Kawasaki Vulcan S?
The word ‘cruiser’ usually conjures up images of large motorcycles with oodles of chrome, a throaty exhaust and, most likely, American origin. Well, the Kawasaki Vulcan S is none of these things. It’s washed in black, doesn’t have a roaring exhaust note and is of Japanese genealogy. Also, it borrows its engine from a sports tourer. It’s true that all this makes it stand apart from traditional cruisers. But being different doesn’t necessarily translate to being better, so the question that arises is this – with all that it has to offer, will it be able to make a mark in the middle-weight cruiser segment?
