2010 KAWASAKI Vulcan 1700 Classic, Retro and techno come together to create one timeless cruiser. At Kawasaki, we dont believe classic looks and high technology need to be mutually exclusive. As a matter of fact, just the opposite. Witness Exhibit A: The Kawasaki Vulcan. 1700 Classic combines things like the latest electronic throttle technology feeding a visceral overhead-cam V-twin, with a dose of old-fashioned cruiser simplicity that lets the rider focus on the experience and not the machine, mile after reliable mile.
