Looking at buying the Vulcan 900 but would like to hear opinions on the bike if you own one, or have heard...?

Question

of any good, or negative ones. Thanks.

Answer 1

Its hard to get an opinion because the owners won't park them long enough to talk about it.

Answer 2

A co-worker of mine has the 900 Custom. Riding that bike was the reason I decided to buy my first cruiser last year. I really like that bike, it looks good, rides good and is a great deal. That's about all I can say.

Answer 3

Real good bikes for commuting, short to medium distance trips. I know several people who ride them.

Answer 4

Owned an '06 VN900 Classic. Loved that bike.

After awhile, the seating position got to be very uncomfy, so I tried a different seat (keep in mind, I'm 6'3" and 300lbs). Seat didn't work, so I got another bike which was easier on my back. Another small complaint was the heel-toe shifter. My feet are large enough to where I got hung up often on it.

Power-wise, I had no complaints whatsoever. Even with me on it, I always had plenty of passing power. I think the 900cc engine is the best middleweight mill out there.

I would recommend the bike to anyone. If you plan on any true long trips, get a new seat. Other than that, it'll last you forever in stock form.
