Harley-Davidson® Street Bob® vs Kawasaki VULCAN® S

2021 Harley-Davidson® Street Bob® vs 2022 Kawasaki VULCAN® S
The 2021 Harley-Davidson® Street Bob® made a lot of waves when it first arrived. A dapper, chromed out bike with a chopped fender style, it sports a unique Harley-Davidson® 70s retro tank graphic and bold wheels. It's a perfect foil to the 2022 Kawasaki VULCAN® S, an up and comer that seeks to make a name for itself in the new year. Our 2021 Harley-Davidson® Street Bob® vs 2022 Kawasaki VULCAN® S is serving Stuart Port St. Lucie Fort Pierce Vero Beach customers with an in-depth comparison on the merits of both bikes.

Comparison
Kawasaki will never be Harley-Davidson®, but does the VULCAN® S push the brand further into the public eye or get left behind in a Street Bob®'s dust?

Torque
Most people recognize torque as being important on pickup trucks, but it's an extremely important spec on your motorcycle, too. Torque is the rotational force available to your motorcycle. "Low-end" torque means that even at lower speeds, you're picking up greater rotation. For those of you who love to really sprint off in a hurry at a green light, a bike with more torque is a lifesaver. The relatively low torque of the 2022 VULCAN® S is set at 46.3. Your Street Bob® grabs 119 ft-lb of torque and a much faster takeoff speed. If you want a bike serving Stuart St. Lucie Fort Pierce Vero Beach with a fast launch, the Street Bob® is a better choice.

Design
The Street Bob® has better quality materials than the VULCAN® S. The model's customization accessories are also more numerous, so if you love to get creative and really decorate your bikes, the Street Bob® has more to offer. For example, there's a nice set of Moto bars available for the bike that you won't find on the VULCAN® S. A "Number One" graphic on the Street Bob®'s fuel tank is another Harley-Davidson® original. Compare it to the relatively plain tank of the 2022 Kawasaki VULCAN® S. The blander paint options on the VULCAN® S will likely never do for a typical Harley-Davidson® biker. This year's Pearl Robotic White and Metallic Matte combo colors are mundane and don't stand out all that much. The way the bike is laid out, it's almost like the tank and fender colors blend in with the wheels themselves. For the average H-D® buyer, the VULCAN® S looks too plain to ever be effective as anything but a bike to briefly consider. When it comes time to buy, going with the Street Bob® is a wiser choice.

Customization
Harley-Davidson® is always serving Stuart Port St. Lucie Fort Pierce Vero Beach customers with more ways to customize a bike than any competitors serve up in the year. Your Street Bob® has a whole range of H-D® accessories designed to give your model a truly unique look apart from its modern peers. Grab some nice connectivity accessories and safely take your phone/music along with you. Customize your handlebars and seating areas. Many people over the years will even choose to re-paint their Street Bob® into one of Harley-Davidson®'s exclusive blends. There's a golden rule in motorcycles, and it's this: if you want to customize, buy Harley-Davidson® bikes. They're always laid out to give you an out for non-factory fashion decisions.
