2001 Kawasaki Vulcan 750 review from United States of America
"A good motorcycle, not great"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
It is a nice looking bike, but too much of it will rust too quickly. I mean some of it could have been prevented in the manufacturing process.
General comments?
It is a good motorcycle. Runs good, had some fun on it.
After having a Midnight Virago, Yamaha 650, BSA Lightning 650, and a Honda 450, I would have to say I like Yamaha's best. If it was me doing it all over again, I would either get a Yamaha Virago again, or a Suzuki Intruder. On top of Yamaha's intensive high marks, they're also cheaper than Kawasaki's.
Thank you.
