SPORTY FLOWING-DESIGN BAGGER LOADED WITH TOP-END TOOLS
The newest edition to the Vulcan 1700 line-up, Kawasaki’s first bagger model follows a wide-and-low concept, its design flowing from the front to the rear of the bike. A number of blacked-out parts and numerous original-design styling components give the Vulcan 1700 Vaquero a hard, sporty image and its own distinct look. Further, it is loaded with high-grade cruising essentials, like Kawasaki’s advanced brake system K-ACT ABS, Electronic Cruise Control, and a high-spec iPod-compatible audio system.
