First I would like to thank everyone with the information that ya'll have given me its helped out alot.

But I'm got one more question which one would be the best for the money.
Honda VTX1300c or the Kawasaki vulcan 900 custom both 2007

I'm not talking about the which one would be best for me because its my first bike. I just want the best bike for my money? because I like both of the bike the same.

Which bikes?

The Honda is 641 pounds. The Kawasaki is 557 pounds.

So get the Honda. You'll get to have your first-drop a little faster.

Have you sat on both of them? This is really your call. Both are good bikes but only you can say which is the best for your money.

yes and that's the problem I like both of them.

well if you want a straight up answer, I would say the honda. The reasons are because my family has had all different makes of bikes, and none have been as good as any honda we have ever had. Not saying the other brand are bad in any way, it's just that I think the honda's are superior. Quality, fit and finish is about as good as it gets. Reliability is basically what they are known for. And their slogan? - Performance First - I can't say anything bad about a honda, my 26 year old bike starts everytime, never had any issues. Even Mike's cb400 started after he totaled it.
I will tell you I have not looked into the kawasaki bike though.

good luck

also i think there are enough votes to justify it.

I like the Vulcan 900.


I think the whole "best bike for the money" rather than the "best bike for me" is just a ploy to justify the "bigger" bike.

Buy what you want, seems like you don't like some of the input that was already given in the previous thread.

Well said!

Honda is the highest quality and the most reliable of the metric bike bunch. Honda doesn't come out with much changes or new models every year like everybody else does, Honda improves their existing models by updating them every new year, yes Honda costs more but for that price you pay for better quality, Honda is the type of bike that you plan to own for 10 years, other brands are 2 or 3 year throw-away bikes. A Honda is a bike for a serious rider that plans to ride his bike almost every day, to commute, to take on long road trips, other bikes are designed for the casual rider that takes a short joy ride maybe one day a week. If you own a Honda no other metric biker will tell you that you made a mistake buying a Honda, HD guys will, but they don't know any better. Yamaha is moving up with the Star line of bikes, but Yamaha still has some quality control issues, Kawasaki and Suzuki have the reputation as the cheaper, generic bikes, and Suzuki has yet to earn any respect building a serious street bike. Buy what you want, what bike feels right, trust ur gut, make sure ur dealer supports you after the sale cause you will need his help.
