Funny I am in the same situation either vucan 1500-1600 or boulevard.
I am leaning toward vulcan due to watercooled over c90 beng aircooled.
I also like style of vulcan more then c90.It's the price tag makes me hesitant...

Probably will go with Vulcan anyways.
it's better break the ground and head in to the wind then break the wind and head in to the ground

I can't speak for the C90, but the electrical on the vulcan's is a pain in the "O Ring". They're also TOUGH to roll around. Too much dead weight, and almost excessive rake that makes the steering floppy at slow speeds. Harsh? Maybe, but I like sportybikes, and I'm not a big guy :P Haha.
Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.

Hi

Yes the Vulcan is a weighty beast, and some don't like the rake, but I've got used to her and we have roundabouts in the UK - manage 40 plus out of some.
The Kawasaki hydraulic valves are a must.
