Pros and Cons in comparison
Yamaha Tracer 7 2025

The new Tracer 7 impresses with its harmoniously tuned CP2 engine and playful, easy handling. Sit on it, ride off and explore the world - that's the Tracer 7. The new chassis, more electronics and suspension do it good. We miss the quickshifter, which is only available as an option for an extra charge; Y-AMT will not be available until 2026.
Kawasaki Vulcan S 2023

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.
