Ulasan Pembeli Bekas
"Underrated touring cruiser that punishes brand snobbery with excellent value."
$7,500-$13,500 usedThe Vulcan 1700 Voyager is Kawasaki's serious answer to the touring cruiser segment, and used examples offer genuinely impressive value if you know what you're buying. That 1700cc parallel-twin punches hard with real low-end torque, and the full fairing actually works — you'll arrive at destinations without feeling like you've been in a wind tunnel for six hours. The adjustable windscreen is a legitimate feature, not marketing fluff. Before buying, pull the infotainment panel and check for cracked mounting tabs — a known weak point on earlier models. Inspect the final drive shaft output seal religiously; leaks happen and dealers charge aggressively for the fix. The suspension is competent but not sophisticated, so press hard on the forks and rear shock looking for leaking seals on anything over 30,000 miles. Tire wear on the rear can be aggressive given the weight. Overall it's a genuinely capable tourer that gets overlooked because it doesn't wear a Harley badge. That's your advantage as a buyer.
