Kawasaki Vulcan S 2015
La Vulcan S redonne vie à la scène des "petits" cruisers de classe moyenne - et ce non seulement en raison de son design original, mais aussi de sa facilité de conduite qui vise particulièrement les débutants. La hauteur de selle basse et la selle étroite favorisent une bonne stabilité du pilote au sol, tandis que le centre de gravité bas assure une maniabilité simple et sûre. Le moteur s'adapte lui aussi parfaitement à l'allure simple de la moto, il peut monter en régime à partir de 2000 tours et ne s'arrête qu'à environ 10 000 tours - du jamais vu sur un cruiser. Le système "Ergo-Fit", qui fait varier la hauteur de selle, la distance du pilote par rapport au guidon et aux repose-pieds, coûte certes un supplément, mais permet au propriétaire de la Vulcan S de bénéficier de généreuses possibilités de personnalisation.
