The 903cc V-twin powered Kawasaki Vulcan 900 Line models have all the style and attitude of a one-of-a-kind build. From the detailed paint job to the intense exhaust, Vulcan 900 machines are an artful expression of individuality. Enjoy the dynamic fusion of hand-built design and premium fit and finish—a tantalizing combination that could only come from Kawasaki. With a presence that’s larger than its name, the Vulcan® 900 Classic out performs many big heavyweight cruisers, while its classic stance, rich paint and stylish spoke wheels remain true to the traditional classic cruiser. STYLISH CAST WHEELS LARGEST REAR TIRE IN CLASS AGGRESSIVE FLAT HANDLEBAR AND FORWARD FOOTPEGS BELT DRIVE LOW SEAT HEIGHT WITH SPORTY GUNFIGHTER STYLING BLACK PIPES, ENGINE CASES, AIR FILTER COVER AND WHEELS PARALLEL SLASH CUT EXHAUST PIPES DUAL THROTTLE VALVES Wide drag bars and forward-mounted footpegs Low center of gravity for easy handling Custom styling with teardrop tank Parallel slash-cut pipes Pinstripe wheels

Excellent motorcycle has the same engine as the Ninja 650, it has good acceleration ! Has a low seat height less than 28 inches. Both feet on the ground. Has a button on left hand grip to blink the headlight let people know your coming. Fun to ride adjustable suspension an excellent first bike. Low weight 500 pounds yet enough power that you will not have to trade after learning to ride.

This is by far my favorite bike. I have a 2002 Honda Shadow 750, got brand new. Nothing more dependable than a Honda, but under- powered. Got the Vulcan 900 used and have been riding it for three years. Very comfortable, low center of gravity, not top heavy, never worried about dropping it. Only negative is that it gets pretty hot. Bought a couple heat guards that took care of that. Last year bought my first Harley Heritage 1800, new. Nice bike but not my favorite. A solid bike that grips the road, rides nice, but top heavy and need help to pick up. Had issue with kickstand at night cause it is not seen being under running board. Modified to improve sturdiness. Highly recommend the Vulcan, All bikes get hot, especially the higher cc they are, but accessorizing is a must. I'm 5'4" and 130 lbs and 60 years young. Be safe!

I was looking for a cruiser style motorcyle that wasn't too heavy, had satisfiable acceleration and speed, and was not too costly. I looked at the new Kawasaki Vulcan S 650 but did not want to spend $8,000 to nearly $10,000 after taxes and mainly motorcycle dealer costs on a motorcyle as this is just a leisure form of transportation. I looked into the pre-owned Suzuki Boulevard S40 (LS650 Savage), Suzuki Boulevard M50, Honda Rebel 300, Honda Rebel 500, and some pre-owned Harley Davidson models but they were either too slow, too heavy, rated to have too uncomfortable seating, or too expensive for what they are. I looked into the Kawasaki Vulcan 500 and saw a few on Facebook Marketplace sell quickly for about anywhere from $2,000 to $2,800 and heard that these motorcycles (Kawasaki Vulcan 500) once had the quickest acceleration off the line for it's class at one specific point in time and were of the lightest in it's class. I found another Vulcan 500 on the market and purchased it. On the first ride I was impressed with the acceleration off the line and the handling. It was easy to put away or push into storage as it's not too heavy. After owning it a while, it has been reliable, and starts right up every time. In regards to comfort the seat can be uncomfortable after riding over an hour or so. Also, when riding at higher speeds on the highway it does feel a bit wavy or not fully stable I think due to it's light weight. It may be best suited for backroad travel, main roads, and in town travel but not highway travel at 70 mph travel.

I had the 1996 1500 classic and the only thing was to put on the Vance and Hines 2 1/4 straight shots with no baffles, take off the bladder underneath, added a hyper charger and Mustang seats. Top speed was 145 mph. Now I have the 1999 nomad, the factory seats are great, power is an issue and I shift into 5th gear at 65mph. The gas tank should be bigger. I removed the exhaust bladder and that helped with power, getting ready to install the hyper charger and Vance and Hines pipes, which should help out greatly. I have over 50,400 miles on it with no complaints.

I love this bike! I have been riding my 2008 1600 Nomad for about two years. It was supposed to be a place holder bike until I got the more expensive bike that I wanted. I ended up riding it much longer than expected. It has good power, it is smooth running, and has never given me a single problem. The bike is comfortable and rides nicely with a passenger,...hardly any different than alone. It starts right up in any kind of weather and always runs the same. The side loading bags are something you have to prefer or get used to. I do not prefer them over top loading but some do for whatever reason. The horsepower is sufficient and the motor has very nice low end torque. The torque shows when riding two up as the acceleration is practically the same as riding alone. It will not blow your socks or any doors off, but the bike is sufficiently powered for fun and safety. Overall, these are great, reliable, smooth running, good looking motorcycles.
