Kawasaki Vulcan description
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE BIDDING!!
This is a perfect bike for cruising around town, light weight,
powerful and quick. You can check for reviews online as it is one of
the best in its category. I bought this not too long ago (less than 2
years) and barely get any time to ride any more. The mileage is only
2160 miles. I have installed the backrest, luggage rack, saddle bags
and windshield. This bike is in like new condition. I will not ship so please arrange for pickup. Also, I have this on loan from a credit union. It is very easy to transfer title directly with them. All I have to do is put a transfer form and I owe them around $1800. I have done this before many times so it is not an issue at all.
