Many of the Vaquero’s parts are original designs, including the engine shrouds, rear fender, one-piece side covers, saddlebags, fairing, seat and mufflers.
Motorcycles, like fashion, are cyclical. What’s hot is a carousel – bobbers yesterday, baggers today, and who-knows-what tomorrow. But baggers have been hot. As has the anti-chrome movement of blacked-out engines and dark components. Kawasaki has been paying attention to the trends as it looks to spice up its Vulcan 1700 line of motorcycles with its new blacked-out bagger, the 2011 Vaquero.
The foundation for the newest Vulcan is provided by a single backbone, double cradle steel frame. Kawasaki has trimmed down the number of forged parts in the frame to a handful and those are used only in areas that need additional reinforcement like the downtube joint, engine brackets, side-stand bracket and rear fender/shock absorber bracket. source:www.motorcycle-usa.com
