2016 Kawasaki Vulcan S Cafe ABS

The 2016 Vulcan S Cafe (pictured top) adds a new tinted wind deflector and an exclusive color scheme. The deflector mounts over the headlight, changing the flow of air coming toward the rider. The wind deflector is also available as an accessory for regular Vulcan S models for $349.95 plus $219.95 for the mounting bracket. The bracket is the same kit used for mounting the accessory windshields, so Vulcan S owners who already have one can simply buy just the deflector to achieve the cafe look.

Besides the wind deflector, the Vulcan S Cafe adds a Matte Carbon Gray color scheme with a Candy Lime Green stripe running down the middle of the bike. ABS is also standard on the Cafe.

The 2016 Kawasaki Vulcan S Cafe ABS will be available for $7,999, a $600 premium on the regular Vulcan S ABS.

2016 Kawasaki Vulcan S ABS SE

In addition to the Cafe, Kawasaki announced a special edition Vulcan S with a two-tone Metallic Imperial Blue and Metallic Spark Black color with matching blue striping on the wheels. The SE model comes standard with ABS and is priced at $7,399.
