However, the Vulcan 500 LTD isn t just limited to beginners. More experienced riders will appreciate its ample power and comfortable accommodations, while the Vulcan 500 LTD s practicality, efficiency and reliability as a transportation source are sure to be appealing to riders of all calibers.A healthy dose of sportbike genes in the Ninja 500R-based parallel twin-cylinder engine gives the Vulcan 500 LTD serious cruiser muscle to outperform its rivals.
