KAWASAKIVulcan 1700 Voyager 2011 - 2012

　　The Kawasaki Vulcan was a series of custom or touring motorcycles manufactured by Kawasaki from 1984. The bikes were also known with a VN designation and were primarily powered by V-twin engines with displacements ranging between 125 to 2,053cc.

　　In 2011, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Kawasaki Vulcan 1700 Voyager, a motorcycle part of the 1700 series that also included the Classic, Classic LT, Nomad, and Vaquero versions, with several differences between one and the other.

　　The Voyager model was a more touring-oriented machine than the Classic model, packing several accessories that enhanced its overall capabilities. The bike was designed for those riders who set their navigation system over the horizon line.

　　As standard, the 2011 Voyager came equipped with a large frame-mounted front fairing, a large windscreen for better wind protection, a two-piece dual seat with a large top case with an integrated passenger backrest for more comfort, side-mounted hard panniers for extra storage, a dual chromed exhaust system, and nine-spoke lightweight aluminum wheels.

　　For 2011, the bike featured minor modifications, such as redesigned silencers that improved the sound quality and had a more classic look, a quieter shifting action due to some alterations inside the gearbox, and an improved fuel injection system that matched the new silencers more accurately.

　　As for power, the 2011 Kawasaki Vulcan 1700 Voyager had its soul brought to life by a 1,700cc four-stroke V-twin liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 73 hp at 5,000 rpm and 136 Nm (100 lb-ft) torque at 2,750 rpm.
