2015 Kawasaki Vulcan S ABS
The 2015 MY Kawasaki Vulcan S sports a 649 cc parallel-twin, derived from the Ninja 650 but tweaked for more torque at low and mid-range revs. The two-wheeler is ideal for novice riders, but still packs a serious punch at high-speeds to keep the more experienced ones satisfied.
Designed to be a cruiser, but with a more unconventional style, it suits the type of rider that defies conformity and adopts their own, unique lifestyle. The ABS ensures optimum braking in adverse conditions. The pegs are three-way adjustable to accommodate riders of different statures.
The model is available for purchase without ABS only in the USA.
