Confirmed: Kawasaki Vulcan S to Launch in India Soon[/caption]
Kawasaki Vulcan S comes with a seat height of 705mm, making it the best seat if considering from a smaller than average built. Front comes with standard telescopic forks while rear uses the same monoshock as other 650cc bikes.
The suspension tune on the Vulcan S is completely different from Ninja 650. When seen in terms of price, the motorcycle is priced at INR 5.44 lakh, which is around INR 45,000 more than Z650 and around INR 11,000 more than Ninja 650. Vulcan S comes with ABS as standard as all other 650cc models are offered with the same braking system.
A unique set of alloy wheels have been used on the Kawasaki Vulcan S as it comes with a 18 inch front and 17 inch rear wheel. However, the front and rear wheel width remains the same as Ninja 650.
Wheel travel is limited while a 14 liter fuel tank is on offer with the motorcycle. Ground clearance stays 130mm and that is almost similar in most Kawasaki bikes. The long 1575mm of wheelbase makes Vulcan S an ideal model for long distance travels.
