2022 Kawasaki Vulcan S Event Data Recorder
Event Data Recorder
In common with many other vehicle manufacturers, Kawasaki has equipped this motorcycle with an event data recorder (EDR). The purpose of this device is to record data that assists with understanding of how some of the vehicle’s systems were performing during a short period of time immediately before and during an accident or similar event involving minor damage. Due to accident variables, all vehicle performance data may not be stored on the EDR.
NOTE
- During normal riding, data is recorded but not saved unless the vehicle is involved in an accident event.
- At no time other than in the event of an accident or similar event involving minor damage is it possible for EDR data to be stored for retrieval.
- Depending on the type of accident event, it is possible that the EDR may not record some or all of the data, or it may not record if the EDR is damaged.
- This device does not collect or store personal data or information (e.g. name, gender, age).
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record only data that is relevant to the vehicle’s running condition at the time of an accident like, but not limited to, vehicle speed, engine crankshaft rotational speed and throttle opening, etc. This data can help provide a better understanding for both the rider and the manufacturer of how the vehicle was performing at the time of an accident or near accident-like situation. To access information on an EDR, special equipment and access to the EDR is required. Kawasaki will not share EDR information without obtain- ing your consent, unless required by government authorities, or acting pursuant to lawful authority.
