Kawasaki Vulcan S 2016

Kawasaki Vulcan S 2016

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.

powerful engine

real cruiser seating position

You can already read it above: The CFMOTO 450SR offers a lot of sports motorbike for an A2 bike and that in a chic dress with great workmanship at a fair price. What more could you want? Well, actually nothing at all. Maybe an adjustable fork and a bit more image. But it's clear: if CFMOTO continues on this path, the Chinese brand will close the gap to the established players in no time and position itself on an equal footing. The know-how is there, and the CFMOTO 450SR has no need to fear comparison. There is a new kid on the A2 sports bike block!
