Kawasaki's Vulcan S uses the Ninja 650's 649cc parallel-twin in a cruiser chassis with the Ergo-Fit system that adjusts seat, footpegs, and handlebars to fit a wide range of rider sizes — the most physically adaptable beginner cruiser available.

The Z900RS wraps Kawasaki's 948cc inline-four in Z1-heritage retro styling — the same engine family as the Z900, giving it modern performance behind the classic aesthetic while keeping cornering ABS and TFT instrumentation on ABS-equipped models.
