Love the bike, but................
By (I am an Owner) on Aug 19, 2011I have a 2010 Voyager that has a howls, almost a whistle as you shift up through the gears. Once in fifth gear this howl remains and can be very annoying. I have asked the dealership where I bought the bike and they recommend I bring it back (second time) so they can tear into the gear box and ... check sprockets etc. Has anyone else experienced this annoying howling/whistling?

shopping, shop no more
By (I am an Owner) on Jul 26, 2011This is a great touring bike, so far I've put 5200 miles on mine, very comfortable for me and my wife, real good power, install kaw intercom works great with radio and rider to passenger.
We live in s.wv. lots of turns and hills so mileage on rear tire was poor i got 4100 miles out of rear. ... This bike has no problems at all eating up the hills and corners great too for a heavy bike. Would definitly buy again.

Vibration
By (I am an Owner) on Mar 11, 2011I'VE had my 2010 Voyager for 7 months and it's had a vibration from new, It feels like your sitting on washing machine on the spin cycle. The vibration is coming from the drive gear as you feel it more so going through the gears. There is also vibration noise coming from the plastic cover on the ... furl tank. Has anyone else had these problems?

Awesome bike
By (I am an Owner) on Dec 15, 2010I bought the 2010 voyager in March and have been rode quite a few miles on it and i love it! There was quite a bit of leg heat until I bought some "baker built" airwings. took all the wind off my wife and i can direct the wind on or off my legs. The Vulcan kit was around 300 bucks,but well worth ... the money.I also added a drivers backrest for comfort(p.s.-get a quick detach for passenger comfort). Plenty of power,turns well on mtn. roads for it's size. Love it!

Great Bikes
By (I am an Owner) on Dec 12, 2010I have a 2006 2000 vulcan classic lt and a 2010 voyager. Both are great bikes. I only wonder if they could not have made the voyager better if they had used the 2053 cc engine

poor quality, lack of service training
By (I am an Owner) on Jun 26, 2010I bought a new 1700 voyageur, when i picked it up the forks were off centre and it took 2 visits and 8 days to almost correct the problem, still needs some tweeking. Then the cruise control only works every other time. You have to downshift back to first gear and start over to get it to work. ... The dealer knows nothing about this problem and says Kawasaki never heard of it. Still waiting for a solution. I have driven kawasaki for over 40 yrs and this is the worse bike i have had. if they are going to launch a new product they shoud know how to fix it.
