2000 Kawasaki Vulcan 1500SE review from United States of America
"Good bike and reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
Nothing.
General comments?
Great bike, the only one complaint I have is that it was too top heavy. With a medium weight passenger and full gas tank, the bike is a little hard to keep balanced at a stop. After riding in the Florida hot sun for several hours, you get tired, and if your passenger moves off center, it is very hard to hold 1200 pounds up on center.
