So its finally happened, I have to change my bike. My present motorcycle a Kawasaki W 650 has been my comfy pair of shoes, for most of the last 8 years I have owned it. The last 2 years my seat time has been getting shorter and shorter (hip and knee problems).

The reason my old bike has been so comfy ( I am 5′ 2″ on a good day) is we have changed suspension, handle bars, slide the front forks and did a whole lot of tinkering to make it fit. This seem to be the norm for most people my height if  you don’t want to buy a cruiser.

So Pat – did you happen to notice, the Vulcan S is a Cruiser…..Yes but it doesn’t handle like a cruiser, and that is as important as fit. And there is lot more about this bike that I have discover!
