Kawasaki Vulcan S vs Yamaha Exciter 155 VVA TCS

The Kawasaki Vulcan S (2026) and the Yamaha Exciter 155 VVA TCS (2026) are compared with the same Moto Kıyas physics model under identical conditions: flat dry asphalt, no wind, a 75 kg rider and no passenger. The Kawasaki Vulcan S is a cruiser with 649 cc, 59.9 hp and unlisted weight; the Yamaha Exciter 155 VVA TCS is a cub / underbone with 155 cc, 18.2 hp and 124 kg. Power-to-weight with the rider: 226.5 hp/ton versus 91.7 hp/ton. On this measure the Kawasaki Vulcan S is 147% ahead.

In the simulation the Kawasaki Vulcan S covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 4.49 s and the Yamaha Exciter 155 VVA TCS in 10.46 s; the Kawasaki Vulcan S is quicker by 5.98 s. In the 100-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 44.7 m for the Kawasaki Vulcan S (with ABS) and 46.8 m for the Yamaha Exciter 155 VVA TCS (with ABS). The Kawasaki Vulcan S stops 2.1 m shorter. Calculated top speed: 173 km/h (estimated from power and drag) versus 115 km/h (estimated from power and drag).

All values are an estimated simulation, not road-test measurements. Technical data comes from the sources listed below; the model uses model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for the Kawasaki Vulcan S and class-average calibration (no accepted model-specific road test) for the Yamaha Exciter 155 VVA TCS. Missing manufacturer data (weight) is estimated by class regression, not measured. Open the interactive app (currently in Turkish) to watch the run side by side and change the load.
