My VULCAN VN2000J CLASSIC LT
By (I am an Owner) on May 20, 2017I purchased because of the size and comfort. I am 6'2" 275 lbs. and I am very comfortable on this bike. It is not a beginner bike. It is heavy when topped off near 850 lbs. It is absolutely a powerful bike with 2053 CC it has a very Smooth ride and changes gears very well. For a larger person I ... would recommend this bike as the best in its class. I cannot imagine ever riding anything else. I love this bike. It handles well with my wife on board also. Great gas mileage and just an over all great bike.

By (I am an Owner) on May 10, 2009This bike has tons of power and is just a blast to ride. It has a longer wheelbase than the biggest Harley and handles great. It is smooth with very little vibration felt through the bars. The only downside I have found is seat comfort. It is a little stiff at the back side of the saddle but ... hopefully it will break in some more and soften up a little. You just can't beat the 2000 Classic LT for value at a great price!!

08' 2000 Vulcan Classic LT
By (I am an Owner) on Sep 03, 2008First, I disagree with some of the reviews that rate this bike as 75th of 98...by what method of comparison?? If you consider value as defined by performance, quality,reliability and ride comfort the rating would have to be much higher. I would rate it in the top 10. Clearly, anyone should agree ... the value is there. Compare it with your favorite cruiser and it stands out. At just under 15K it's far less expensive than most of the pack outfitted with the same equipment. Large and powerful, it motors thru the curves effortlessly. It's not a sportbike, yet in comparisons with-in it's cruiser class, I believe it bodes well and is often under rated. I purchased mine, new in May of this year and have almost 4000 miles on it to date. I give it high marks, with the only exception being an overly firm seat... which becomes evident on long hauls. Overall,I'm an owner that is very satisfied.
