2018 Vaquero & Voyager

I know there was some discussion earlier about the 2018 Vulcan line up.
They are now posted on Kawasaki's website.

The Vaquero is only available black and the Voyager is Red and Gray.

I was at a Kawasaki shop last Saturday, and ask about them. They were not listed in his new 2018 model sheet that they just got.
He was surprised, said they sell pretty well for them.
They did have 2- 2017 Voyagers (really like the colors) and a 2017 Vaquero.

That 2018 Vaquero is sharp with the dark grey and green ascent / striping.

I like the Voyager. The red would match my truck.

They finally brought out a color I would have replaced my 2010 with. 18 months too late though. Maybe as in income winds down into retirement I can have a used one.

Good to see the big bore tourers Voyager and Vaquero in the 2018 line up. A few nice upgrades seem due though, especially when we see how well the new Yamaha Venture fares up in sales and popularity in the coming months and next year.

Voyager can probably be had for a little over half of the venture. A newer sound system would be nice though.

Interesting Colors on bikes. I always look for upgrades on Kawasaki bikes. Price of everything keeps going up along with motorcycles. Been very happy with Kawasaki motorcycles.

I'm curious as to what the cost increase per bike would be for a solid metal flake color ?

Solid colors on models are usually less than two tone colors.
