Vulcan 900 Classic LT

I bought an 06 Classic LT. I found the seat to be torture so replaced it with a mustang with driver backrest. Now it is great. Have ridden over 9000 miles and plan to ride it many more. It handles great. Is great in the twisties of NC and can keep up with a nomad 1600 without straining when on ...the superslab. I have tried a Nomad 1500 and a Yamaha 650 silverado and also a HD Sportster 1200. Without a doubt, the Vulcan 900 Classic LT is my choice for a comfortable dependable fun bike. I graded it down one on comfort but not anymore with the Mustang Seat. Read Full Review

Great Bike

Wow, was not planning to buy a Vulcan, looking at Yamaha's 950. Glad I bought this one great ride, as strong as my brother's Honda 1100, no problems keeping up with him. Perfect for both highways and city riding. Read Full Review

09 Vulcan 900 classic

Traded in a VLX 600 for a Vulcan 900 and am more than pleased. I have owned the bike less than a week and have put about 500 miles of in town and moderately curvy roads. The Vulcan is easy to handle in the city and is a dream on curvy scenic roads. I plan to ride the Blue Ridge Parkway, beginning in... VA and ending in NC,in Aug. I have no doubt that I have chosen the right bike. The only thing I would change is a better shock on the rear. Read Full Review

Amazing little Vulcan 900

I purchased a brand new 2009 Vulcan, and added floorboards front and aft..saddlebags, luggage rack, windshield, and backrest. This little? cruiser has been great! After the initial break-in period..I ran it for 200 miles with wife and suitcase..yes, suitcase, strapped on the back...along with my w...ife's laptop! We rode with another couple..they have Harleys..."big un's" and we kept up nicely, thank you! This bike is smooth, very stable in wind and rain, and I am very comfortable anywhere I go. I only average about 38 mpg as we live in a fairly mountainous region, but this bike can do it all...There is no lack of power, and the standard exhaust looks great, and sounds OK. I may change the exhaust later...but for now...The only thing I would change is to add a "real" luggage bag for longer trips. My wife loves this bike! Nuff said!!! I give this bike 6 stars!!

2009 Vulcan 900 Classic

I rode 125 cc bikes 15 yrs back. When deciding to buy a bike last month, i thought 500 cc should be more than enough. Finally got convinced by others that i need atleast 900cc if i want to ride on freeways.



So, bought the 2009 Vulcan 900 Classic few weeks back. Bike looks great and i hear from o...thers other engine is best in market for reliability.

But after riding on it for 300 miles, i feel that i should have bought a Vulcan 1600. Vulcan 900 is flat on freeways when you are in the 5th gear. Seat and handle position aren't that great for riding more than 20 mins or so.

If you are looking for a cheap and good looking bike to just ride on internal roads, go for this bike, else look for some other bigger bikes Read Full Review
