Is a Kawasaki Vulcan a good bike ?

[Doomer]

Or is there something better in the same class ?

Thanks

Hayabusa is in an entirely different class. Hell, it's in it's OWN class, so you can hardly say it compares to a Vulcan.

yeah you can't compare a Hayabusa to a Vulcan.

A Hayabusa is a sports bike while a vulcan is more of a cruiser. diffrent class of beast.

I have a 96 Vulcan EN500. I love the bike. Even though its only 500 CCs it has really nice pickup and operates stronger than one would expect.

Thanks,
The Hayabusa is a good looking bike but I'm looking for a touring bike.

Any other suggestions ?

There are very few bikes that are NOT good bikes, well, except for the obvious (like HD 😉).

vulcans are decent bikes... but ive never been much of a kawi fan

and for the record - the busa is considered a sport touring bike, not a sport bike

in japan they are named the king katana - and as those who know motorcycles will tell you, a katana is hardly a sportbike
