The Kawasaki Vulcan 1600 Nomad


True to its name, Kawasaki’s Vulcan 1600 Nomad is ready to travel and there’s no surprise this ready made touring-cruiser is a popular choice. Highlighted by a strong frame and excellent power from a 95-cubic inch V-Twin, the Nomad also has extensive touring features, a stylish appearance, and excellent riding dynamics.
Propelling the vulcan is a 1,552cc V-twin engine generating plenty of highway power to take its rider anywhere the road leads them.and the engine has a distinctive V-twin rumble or power-pulse feeling from its single-pin crankshaft.
Crucial on a laden tourer - as when maneuvering in parking lots - the 1600 Nomad’s steering geometry is designed so that the motorcycle feels more neutral at low speeds, while an air-adjustable rear suspension allows the Nomad to maintain the correct geometry even when loaded with a passenger and luggage.
The Nomad is highlighted by several standard chrome and creature comforts: Chrome engine guards and a thick passenger seat equipped with a backrest and aluminum grab bars. Floorboards for the rider and passenger combine to make long-distance rides more comfortable and pleasurable. Streamlined and stylish hard saddlebags are standard fare and provide generous storage for those overnight rides.
Self-canceling turn signals, a 5.3-gallon fuel tank, topped by an elegant electronic speedometer and LED odometer/tripmeter display let Nomad owners fully enjoy their ride. Other standard features such as an adjustable windshield, plush air-assisted rear suspension and adjustable levers tailor the Nomad to its rider.
