Trending Questions on Kawasaki Vulcan S - Answered by Autocar Experts
I am 39 years old and 160 cm (5′5″) tall. I have been happily riding a Honda (or Bajaj) Avenger 220 for the last 12 years, and I want to upgrade. Although I really want a Super Meteor 650, it’s too heavy and would be difficult for me to maneuver, so it’s not a practical choice. I prefer cruiser-style bikes and have been exploring the Keeway V302. Please suggest a good bike with at least 350 cc.
The Keeway V302C is a unique offering with its V-twin engine and mean, bobber looks, and it is also a rare sight on our roads, which might persuade you to get one. However, in our experience, there are a lot of areas where this bike needs work. Its rear suspension has very little travel, leading to a jarring ride over less-than-perfect roads.
Its fit and finish, as well as overall build quality, cannot justify its Rs 4.15 lakh (ex-showroom) price tag, and Keeway has a minuscule dealer network across India. Also, the V302C isn't a machine that has cemented its reputation for reliability like other, more mainstream rivals. All this being said, we recommend you steer clear of the Keeway V302C and, for that matter, other Chinese-origin bikes on sale in India.
Sadly, the cruiser space in the middleweight displacement segment has seen very few entrants and aside from the Super Meteor, you are limited to the Kawasaki Eliminator 500 (Rs 6.16 lakh) and Vulcan S (Rs 8.13 lakh), the only two offerings from a reputed make under the Rs 10 lakh mark. Other options will require you to significantly increase your budget.
