2000 Kawasaki Vulcan 750

Pros: Excellent Engine and Handling
Cons: Foot Pegs Out Front

I owned a 1990 Vulcan 750, which even then was an older model. Actually this bike was introduced in 1985 as a 700cc, and raised to 750cc a year or two later, after that nothing much changed other than the colors.

I owned this bike for three...

Pros: Ample power, smooth ride, nice fit.
Cons: None, really.

I bought my 2003 Vulcan 750 three weeks ago. I was actually determined to buy a 500 LTD but as usual, the salesman tried to steer me toward a bigger more expensive bike. I shrugged off his suggestion, but eventually looked the 750 over. It was almost...

Pros: Full instrumentation, maintenance stand and sidestand, foot pegs
Cons: No rear disc.

I am 49 this month, 5' 6" tall, 162 lbs. Look, I know this is probably going to be a novel so consider yourself forewarned. I'm doing this write-up because I think magazines can be slanted but when real people with the real machine and real world usage...

Pros: Practical, great value, high tech design for a cruiser
Cons: Lack of aftermarket accessories, retro 1980's looks

I'm a big Star Trek fan, and got a real kick when I heard a good friend of mine was buying a bike called the "Vulcan". I'd never heard of the model before.

For non-trekkies, the Vulcans are an alien race on Star Trek that are known for being...

Pros: Dependable motor and drivetrain, nice handling and braking, quality components
Cons: awful seat, dated styling

I bought my Vulcan 750 about three years ago when I decided to begin riding again after a long absence from motorcycling. Once my kids were grown and on their own, I came on the Kawasaki through a casual conversation with a muscle car fan. He had this ...

Pros: Great power and brakes, very smooth and easy to ride
Cons: Seat and lack of accessories

I bought this bike as a new left-over 2001. I can see from reading these reviews that most VN750 owners love this bike and a few are less than satisfied. I can sympathize with the few about crappy dealer support, it can easily destroy your riding...

Pros: Shaft Drive,Liquid Cooled,Self-Adjusting Valves,Alloy Wheels,Full Instrumentation,"Outdated" Styling.
Cons: Consistently Bashed in Magazine reviews, for its "Outdated' Styling.

I'm sure intergallactic space travel aboard the Starship Enterprise, would pale in comparison to the fun I'm having on my Earthbound Vulcan. I picked up this Dream Machine on 01-06-03, and just dropped it off at the Dealer for its 500 mile service, ...

Pros: Price, Performance, Looks. Ride position
Cons: seat, and no rear disc

Yes I say this is the best of the kawasaki line! I have bought two 750s and loved them so much that I thought the enchantment was the name kawasaki. It wasn't. I bought a 1500 vulcan and before I finished the ride home with my new purchase, I was...

Pros: Reliability, Comfort, Style, Strong Accel
Cons: Lack of bolt on accessories

I currently own a 1999 Kawasaki Vulcan 750, and would buy another one in a heart-beat. This bike is the perfect blend of style and reliability. The bike is a great commuter AND trip-taker. It rides smooth and easy in practically all road conditions.
...

Pros: looks, tach, all the gages, shaft
Cons: rear drum brake ( for the look!)

well just got my 2004 new vulcan a week ago. Jumping from a ninja to that one was a culture shock b ...

Pros: price, features, performance
Cons: sort of weird-looking by today's standards, weak rear brake, fuel capacity could be better

I've had my 2001 Kawasaki Vulcan 750 about a month now and I just went over 1000 miles. I am very happy with this bike. I have had no problems. The engine is very smooth. I bought the Vulcan 750 primarily for it's features: shaft drive, low...

Pros: Handling, ride position, power, comfort and passenger comfort.
Cons: Not a selection of bolt on parts

I've only been riding this bike for just over a week. I spent the entire winter thoroughly shopping every touring/cruiser bike out there. Originally set out for Honda Shadow 1100 or Suzuki Intruder. This bike has just about everything you could ask...

Pros: Price, chopperesque style, full instrumentation, easy to ride, smooth strong motor with deep sounding exhaust.
Cons: Seat, ugly motor, rust, rear drum brake, lack of aftermarket parts, LACK OF QUALITY!!!

I've owned my Vulcan 750 since October 1997. It is my first and only motorcycle. I wish I could say it's been a wonderful experience, but it hasn't. I like the bike a lot when it works, but I've had 2 major problems. One of which dealership mechanics...

Pros: Shaft Drive, low maintenance engine, tubeless tires
Cons: Tank size, Warranty Support

I bought my 750, Sue E, in early March and only have about 1500 miles on her so far. I had her tricked out the Touring Package-fairing, windshield, hard bags, etc. from Kawasaki.

I get between 46 and 53 mpg. The bike has a huge fun-per-gallon...

Pros: Styling, manuverability & handling, seat height, balance.
Cons: Lack of Company support for their products

I bought a 2001 Kawasaki 750 Vulcan new from the dealer. Handling and Balance were major factors in the decision to buy the bike. The seat height is great for shorter riders. Women love the fact that they can sit on the bike flatfooted and that the bike ...
