Motorcycle specifications Kawasaki650 VULCAN S Performance 2021 A crisp morning


presentation of the 650 VULCAN S Performance 2021
On the one hand, there's American-style custom, with huge engines approaching 2 liters in displacement. This segment is so closely tied to manufacturers on the other side of the Atlantic that Japanese and European brands have given up the fight (in our country).
Then there's light custom, where the battle's still on, with the CMX 500, the V7, and one of the most sparkling, the 650 Vulcan S.
Maneuverable, homogeneous, with a sound chassis and body, and powered by the right caliber for its size, Kawasaki custom bikes are sure to please. And its cheeky side is refreshing, with its engine and chassis derived from the ER-6/Z 650 roadster.
You'll soon feel like playing the rebel. And a little more, if you like the scent of metal in your mouth and ears. A twin needs to belch, more or less richly. With the Vulcan's Performance Pack(formerly known as Sport), the engine's voice is unleashed. The throttle blows through a complete line by Arrow. Made entirely from stainless steel, then finished with a carbon tip, it boasts a 40% weight saving and up to 10% extra power. Not to mention a more gratifying melody.
For style rather than protection, a Café-style smoked bubble adds presence to the bow. With these two elements, the 650 Vulcan S "Performance" is a hair more cheeky. An add-on that can also be added to the Special Edition.
