#1 Unread post by wickedrider »

Does any know anything about the 800 Vulcan Classic? Are they and Kawasaki's in general a good reliable bike? I 12k a lot for a four year old bike?

Hey,
I'm pretty new to MC's in general, but I do know Kawasaki makes a good bike. I've seen reviews on the Vulcan 800 HERE

12k is ridiculous for a 4 year old 800, unless it's been totally customized.

after all, The 07 Vulcan 900 that I'm lookin' to buy sells for 7.2k.

I hope he means 12 k miles.......the 04 sold for 7000 (after tax title and accessories) new.

The Kaw 800 is a great bike....as long as your brother doesnt lay it down.

Ditto!

I have a 2001 Kaw 800 classic and I absolutely love it. The 800's are built to be driven in to ground (not literaly ofcourse :wink: ) My experience with them and people I know that have them is that they are solid dependable bikes.
