Kawasaki Vulcan description
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE BIDDING!!
This is a perfect bike for cruising around town, light weight,
powerful and quick. You can check for reviews online as it is one of
the best in its category. I bought this not too long ago (less than 2
years) and barely get any time to ride any more. The mileage is only
2160 miles. I have installed the backrest, luggage rack, saddle bags
and windshield. This bike is in like new condition. I will not ship so please arrange for pickup. Also, I have this on loan from a credit union. It is very easy to transfer title directly with them. All I have to do is put a transfer form and I owe them around $1800. I have done this before many times so it is not an issue at all.

Moto blog
You want a nice little car, you do.
Wed, 08 Sep 2010We ran a couple of stories last week - both, coincidentally, about new Kawasakis. One was the first peek of the new ZX10R – hot stuff you’d imagine – the other, the new W800 retro parallel twin. I suppose it shouldn’t have shocked us, which story was most popular in terms of hits but it really does mark a seismic shifts in British biking attitudes that the W800 story doubled the hits of the ZX10 piece.
Kawasaki Electronic Service Book
Tue, 03 Mar 2015Starting from April this year, every new Kawasaki motorcycle will be equipped with a branded USB flash drive, which will store the entire service history of the motorcycle and other data about it. The so-called History Key will go in addition to the regular service book, as well as the element confirming membership in the free community of Kawasaki Riders Club.
Conquering the Nurgurgring In Under 8 Minutes + Gyro Cam Video!
Mon, 31 Mar 2014With a nickname like The Green Hell, the Nurburgring Nordschleife is nearly 13 miles of terror wrapped up in a historic race track. Famous for its sheer length, close confines, and the fact it is open to the public most the year, the Nurburgring has a dual reputation as a great testing facility and a widow maker – certain reports estimate as many as 12 deaths a year here. To lap here in under 10 minutes is considered a fast lap.
