A super loud thunder like screamer from a old vulcan exhaust last week still pumping my heartbeat a bit. Also reminds me with the daily afternoon-thunderstorm which struck Malaysia (Klang valley to be exact). Displayed, a much-much more super-power cruiser from Kawasaki, the KAWASAKI VULCAN 1600 MEAN STREAK. Her name itself indicates what she can deliver.
"Diabolically styled liquid-cooled power cruiser. Fuel-injected 1552cc V-twin engine that's rubber-mounted to reduce vibration. Loaded with high-revving sportbike components, such as inverted forks for precision steering and four-piston calipers up front for better braking feedback " -source
All the stuff you need to cruise around with all eyes on you. Its all your for +$11,000.
