CONCEPT
VULCAN S
The VULCAN S is not your average cruiser. It stands apart, with its Parallel Twin engine, unique frame and suspension layout, and its very non-traditional looks. Designed for independent-minded riders, it does not require conformation to any heard-mentality fashion or lifestyle.
Special attention paid to ensuring high levels of fit & comfort, and confidence in riding make the new VULCAN an attractive option for new riders and female riders looking for a stylish, accommodating motorcycle. Accessible in all senses of the word, with the VULCAN S riders can come as they are, and just get on and go.
TOP FEATURES
POWERFUL, YET EASY-TO-CONTROL ENGINE
Liquid-cooled, DOHC, 8-valve 649 cm³ Parallel Twin with fuel injection delivers smooth, responsive performance, especially in the low and medium rpm ranges.
LARGE DISC BRAKES
Large-diameter disc brakes balance ample stopping power with easy control for beginning riders. Large φ300 mm front disc is slowed by a two-piston caliper. At the rear, a φ250 mm disc is gripped by single-piston caliper.
ORIGINAL MULTI-FUNCTION INTRUMENTATION
Compact, stacked instrument cluster matches the bike’s overall design and features an easy-to-read layout. The analogue-style tachometer and multi-function LCD screen use blue LED backlights for excellent visibility at night.
INVERTED TRIANGLE HEADLAMP
Curved, flowing style blended with a powerful, long-and-low stance and modern elements creates a unique, eye-catching design. At the front of the bike, an inverted triangle headlamp contributes to the VULCAN S’s fresh, unique design.
LINKAGE-EQUIPPED OFFSET LAYDOWN SINGLE-SHOCK
The offset laydown single-shock rear suspension is equipped with linkage to enable a longer stroke for increased ride comfort. The rear shock features adjustable preload, with 7 positions to suit rider size and payload.
ADJUSTABLE FOOTPEG POSITION
The compact engine and slim frame result in a design that is narrow at the knees and feet. Forward-positioned footpegs are ideal for relaxed, cruiser-style riding. Three possible footpeg positions (standard, 25 mm forward, 25 mm back) allow riders to adjust foot position to suit size and preference.SPECIFICATIONS
