The Kawasaki EN 500 is a mid-sized cruiser from Kawasaki, sold in some markets as the Vulcan 500. It uses a liquid-cooled 498cc parallel twin from the GPZ500S, giving it more performance than most small cruisers.

A restricted version was also sold for newer riders. Easy and reliable, it was a popular first big bike. Rivals included the Yamaha XV535 Virago and Honda Shadow VT600.
