2001 Kawasaki Vulcan 500

This my first bike (with my granddaughter seated behind me). I bought it on June 6 of 2011 and have ridden over 2500 miles since then, mostly by myself. With my husband getting his license this year, I'm sure I'll triple that in the year to come. Next year, we're both going to upgrade to bigger/newer bikes, but I'm sure I'll stick with a Vulcan. Fits like a great pair of jeans.

Vulcan the best
by: Tammy

I have an 01 Vulcan 1500 Classic. I got my endorsement Sept. 2011. I started with a Suzuki Marauder 800 I always felt top heavy on it. I am a big girl and thought I needed a bigger bike so my b/f found the Vulcan and I have to say when I first rode it I was in love. It has progressive shocks which lowered it some the balance of that bike it awesome. If I ever think of getting rid of it there will be another Vulcan in it's place.

Loving my Vulcan too
by: Donna

I just bought the identical bike 8 weeks ago.800 miles so far, many of them solo. It does fit like an old pair of jeans but I am finding it might not have quite enough power.My husband bought a Vulcan 900 last year. They are great bikes.

Kawasaki Vulcn 500
by: Ivana

Congrats my dear...I agree, it fits perfectly!!! I ride an '09 which I bought brand new as an overstock last May 2011 after I got my M2 (after doing the safety course) and have put on almost 4,000 km. Enjoy the bike, it rides like a dream. And don't be too quick to want to upgrade as that little bike has a lot of power and keeps up to the big boys no problem. Check out this forum and see what they have to say before making that decision
