The Japanese auto major, Kawasaki, has revealed the 2 special models of 2016 Vulcan S cruiser at AIMExpo in Florida, USA, which have been christened as Cafe and Special Edition (SE). Both the versions will be launched in 2016, joining the new Ninja ZX-10R, ZX-14R (ZZR1400) SE and KLR650 Matrix Camo Grey edition. The new editions of the Vulcan S have received many cosmetic updates, however, there is not any mechanical change in the machines.
The new Kawasaki Vulcan S Cafe gets a new custom three-tone paint scheme with a combination of Matte Carbon Grey and Black having Candy Lime Green Stripe running down in the middle of the bike. However, the most noticeable change in the motorcycle is the addition of a semi-transparent fly-screen over the headlamp. The windshield is not only aiding to the looks of the cruiser, but it also improves the comfort by reducing windblast from the rider. The accessory is also available for the existing Vulcan S owners, and they can install it using an additional mounting bracket.
The Vulcan S SE special edition comes with a premium dual-tone paint scheme with Metallic Imperial Blue having Metallic Spark Black Stripe running down in the middle of the bike. The bike gets complimenting Blue pin stripes on the wheels as well. There is no any alteration in the 2016 Kawasaki Vulcan S continues to get power from the same 649cc, liquid-cooled, parallel-twin motor, which powers the standard version. The motor makes 61bhp of maximum power and a peak torque of 62Nm, and it comes mated to a 6-speed transmission.
The Kawasaki Vulcan S comes equipped with ERGO-FIT technology, offering adjustable footpegs, seat and handlebar options tailor-fit to help suit a wide range of riders. The bike features 41mm telescopic suspension at the front, an offset monoshock suspension setup at the rear, 120/70 R18 section front tyre, 160/60 R17 section rear tyre, dual disc brakes with ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) and much more. The Kawasaki Vulcan S is expected to be launched in India next year and its closest competitors will be Harley-Davidson Street 750 and Hyosung Aquila Pro 650.
Kawasaki Ninja 300 User Reviews
- Kawasaki Ninja 300 STD | 2022 Model | Lime GreenIt is a fantastic bike. Dual engines. Aesthetically pleasing. Smooth driving and cruising experience. Authentic servicing and maintenance could be a little challenging given the limited number of Kawasaki stores. It offers 25-30 KMPL mileage in the city, and over 30 on highways. The fuel tank capacity is also huge at 17 liters of petrol. Amazing control of the driver on bike even at top-notch speeds.Read More1 1
- A Budget BeastBeen using it for almost 5 years now and never had it left me on the road stranding. The bike is a superstar with almost 26-30 mileage, it is just an unbeatable combination of power and efficiency. Cornering is so much fun after I upgraded the three and barely I was ever unsatisfied with the looks and styling its got.Read More5 7
- Performance and reliabilityI chose Ninja 300 for its performance, strong top-end power as I was about passionate about riding. Its good beginner- friendly and revs without being jerky. Has comfortable ergonomics and is a balanced bike with reliability. So far engine was smooth and linear. Sporty but not aggressive and power is usable for city and highways. Longer rider are somewhat comfortable and is stable. Display and techs are basic and is slightly heavy. Braking could be sharper to some extent. Yes, I would recommend Ninja 300 for smooth, reliable and well-balanced to ride easily and still have fun on rides. It tend to have better performance but lacks some basic features which other bikes in the same segment offer.Read More6 3
- Smooth engine, strong highway performance and sporI choose this bike mainly because of its smooth engine and highway comfort. It feels very stable at high speed and gives confidence while riding. Looks are sporty and premium which I liked. In city suspension feels little stiff but I was ok with that compromise. Ride experience is mostly positive. On highways it feels planted and smooth even at higher speed. Handling is very good and cornering feels safe. Mileage is decent not too low not too high. In city traffic and bad roads you feel bumps little more. Yes I will recommend this bike to people who love riding on highways and enjoy sporty riding style. It is not for someone who want soft suspension or only daily city use. Buy it if you want performance and feel, avoid if mileage is main concern.Read More2 3
