Kawasaki Vulcan 900LT

#1 Unread post by blues2cruise »

The Vulcan comes with an unreasonably large windshield. The manufacturer must think only really really tall people will buy their bike.
Anyway...I took the windshield to a place in Langley called Industrial Plastics. They cut it down the size I needed....I measured and then marked with masking tape.
Wow...they did a great job. It looks factory perfect.

I also got engine guards installed.

I can only afford one thing at a time...

I want to get a light bar and driving lights....and I want to get a rear rack that goes behind the passenger back rest.

I'll be taking it in for it's second service this Friday.

looking forward to admiring your rack :D
still recovering - back to crutches, then walking with a stick, then running - then hopefully riding again!

I just came back from a short road trip. My new motorbike handled admirably. I rode the Hope Princeton Highway and went to Penticton and back.
I must say having the extra power compared to the 650 V-star I had was remarkable. The 900 made those long steep hills so easily.
