2009 Kawasaki Vulcan 500 LTD, Affordable cruiser styling, outstanding small displacement efficiencyThe ranks of first-time motorcycle buyers are swelling just as fast as the price of gas. The Vulcan 500 LTD is Kawasaki s answer to motorcyclists yearning to ride into the cruiser lifestyle. A low seat height, friendly power delivery and affordable purchase price make it an excellent entry level motorcycle and an easy platform on which to develop those all-important riding skills. 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. The powerplant provides a smooth, predictable torque delivery that s ideal for boulevard cruising, yet it still has plenty of gusto for strong acceleration at highway speeds. However, there s more to the 500 LTD than its excellent engine. An equally user-friendly chassis with a long and low, matte black steel frame really puts it into the great category. A stepped seat, bobbed rear fender, tank-mounted speedometer and chrome-plated wire-spoke wheels give it the classic cruiser looks sure to please the custom style crowd. The rider calming low, 28-inch seat height rounds out the Vulcan 500 LTD s rider friendly chassis. Admire it as is, or select additional enhancements to add your own touch from any of Kawasaki s accessory line available through Kawasaki dealers.
