Vulcan 900 Classic LT

Awesome bike. Got my 1st street bike in '74 and have owned several makes and models over the years. This bike is my favorite. I ride all the time from day trips to long haul. With it's large fuel tank I can cruise over 200 miles before I need to think about a gas station, and still have a good 50 mi...les left in the tank. I looked at the Suzuki C50T, and the Yamaha V Star 950 Tourer before deciding on the Kawasaki. The Vulcan was just all around the best bike for me, also listed for $400 less than the C50T and $700 less than the V Star. Also the largest fuel tank by far at 5.3 gals verses 4.1 on the C50T and 4.5 on the V Star so a much longer range. Looks department to me was definitely the Vulcan with the C50T next then the V Star. I ride a lot of open road so a good windscreen is a must and the Vulcan was tops. The Vulcan and V Star are both belt drive while the C50T has a shaft system. Belt drive is a maintenance free system and reduces weight as well. The only thing I think that would make the Vulcan a bit better would be to add a couple teeth to the front pulley to reduce RPM at interstate speeds. So all around this is a great bike and am glad I bought it. Read Full Review
