Cruisers

These are not machines made for full face helmets and racing leathers.

To cruise is to confront the wild, to feel the rush of air pulling at the cheeks as the speedo climbs inexorably higher and the deep throb of the exhausts turns into a roar. Classic looks and classic times. Sit back, relax and take the cruise of your life.

Flagship of the Vulcan® 1700 family, the Kawasaki Vulcan 1700 Voyager® comes equipped with everything the serious touring rider needs to pile on the miles in comfort and style: a large frame-mounted fairing, amazing storage capacity, a sculpted touring seat, electronic cruise control, a premium sound system and a powerful long-stroke 1700cc, liquid-cooled, 52° V-Twin engine.

With its large windshield, hard saddlebags, passenger floorboards, sturdy backrest and standard cruise control, the Vulcan® 1700 Nomad™ is designed to reel in many comfortable miles of adventure at a time, with or without a passenger, using thoroughly modern hardware belied by its classic American appearance. Get that powerful, fuel-injected overhead-cam V-twin loping, set the cruise, and be prepared to be impressed.

At Kawasaki, we don’t believe classic looks and high technology need to be mutually exclusive. As a matter of fact, just the opposite. Witness Exhibit A: The Kawasaki Vulcan® 1700 Classic combines things like the latest electronic throttle technology feeding a visceral overhead-cam V-twin, with a dose of old-fashioned cruiser simplicity that lets the rider focus on the experience and not the machine, mile after reliable mile.

Kawasaki builds larger and more expensive cruisers, but they don’t build them any better, more fun to ride, or with more character than the Vulcan® 900 Classic: 903cc of fuel-injected V-twin Kawasaki know-how provides more than enough thrust in a bike that weighs just 620 pounds — accompanied by all the rumble the law allows. Classic looks enforce a long, low frame that carries the rider just 26.8 inches from the pavement. From there, Kawasaki adds plenty of expensive-looking chrome, quality paint and stylish spoked wheels, then sweetens the deal with an easy-to-swallow price tag.

The new VN900 Custom is a factory built custom bike that really stands out from the crowd. It’s the result of Kawasaki's pursuit of the essence of a true custom motorcycle. A study in contrasts, its low set rear, massive rear tyre and solid disc wheel are juxtaposed against a clean and lightweight front end.

Whether booming down the highway or cruising slowly through city streets, the Vulcan 900 Custom’s light sporty handling makes it one easy to ride cruiser.
