Full Version: Kwaka Cruiser
THIS IS MY RIDE ! 1600cc VULCAN NOMAD, HAVE FITTED HYPERCHARGER NOW AND LOOKING FOR A SET OF COBRA PIPES
ok cool
Thanks mate she is COOL (as it says on rear guard)
Kawarleys arent my style, but does hypercharger mean its blown or something else???
Gday mate ! Yeah I thought that too when I was a bit younger riding 1000cc Katanas and zxr 750 Kwakas but as you get older you have an eye for detail and reliability and the kwaka will eat a Harley for speed and handling dont get me wrong I do love the shape and sound of a Harley I wouldnt have bought a lookalike otherwise but as i read somewere i didnt want my misses hooking up the trailer to the car everytime i went for a ride on my Harley lol ; )
And a hypercharger is air forced induction that replaces the factory air-cleaner its sticks out the side of the bike with a couple of butterfly in the front and catches more air....... more air = more power. Rick

LOL at the trailer!
Oh cool that makes sense.
Looks like you have plenty of room to kit up and dissapear for a fair trip
That thing is huge! If its anything like th big Hondas, you can start them with a glass of water on the tank and it wont even vibrate it. They are so torquey (Spelling) but they need to be when something weighs nearly 400kg!
I agree with you and VU_SS, the kwakaharley and yamaharleys and hondarleys arent my thing. But I dont like HD's either. The problem with HD's is as you pointed out the seemingly poor reliabilty of them, and for what you pay the brakes, suspension and performance is pretty average!

she tips the scales at 350kg dry weight ! but once she's up and running she handles great but if i do put her down she will be staying there lol
Good to see you getting the young one into it as well!
