2007 Kawasaki Vulcan® 1600 Mean Streak® for Sale

17 in. Aluminum Wheels With Radial Tires

• Radial tires front and rear on 17 in. cast-alloy wheels make a performance statement
• Wide 170 / 60R17 rear tire delivers excellent traction

Additional Features

• Unlike most cruisers, the Mean Streak enjoys nimble handling with excellent high-speed stability. Sportbike-style 43 mm inverted forks and a reinforced swingarm with dual air-assisted hydraulic shocks aid handling, while still offering enough compliance to offer the smooth journey demanded by cruiser riders. Dual radial-mount front disc brakes and six-piston calipers lend additional street credibility and excellent stopping power to the Mean Streak’s bag of tricks.
• The Vulcan 1600 Mean Streak’s 1,552cc V-twin engine offers a smooth wave of torque to make your ride more entertaining, thanks to high-tech features like liquid cooling, electronic fuel injection, dual spark plug digital ignition and four valves per cylinder.
• In the cruiser world, appearances and rider comfort are every bit as important as massive power, so Kawasaki polished the valve covers and cooling fins for a bright, high-performance image. The 1600 Mean Streak’s bright 17-inch aluminum wheels enhance the bike’s high-performance image, while radial tires provide exceptional grip and stability.
