Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

Kawasaki Vulcan S 2019

Kawasaki Vulcan S 2019

No matter which platform Kawasaki puts the 650 cubic two-cylinder in, the result is always a great motorbike! Even though the engine is unusually rev-happy for a cruiser, it results in a cruiser that actually qualifies as a sports cruiser when paired with the sporty chassis set-up. The only brake is the limited lean angle clearance, but this will not deter lovers of hearty footrest grinding. With such a good bike, we hope that Kawasaki will follow suit - after all, the Vulcan S has been with us almost unchanged since 2015.

The Honda Rebel 1100 is a very fun, easy to ride, agile and powerful cruiser motorbike that will probably find many friends - whether rookie or old hand. My personal highlights are the ingenious engine, the electronic equipment and the low weight in combination with the low price compared to the competition. A successful Japanese cruiser!
