Kawasaki Vulcan EN500

Video of bike with music at the beginning.

The bike being ridden and revved. The vulcan had JAMA slash-cut exhausts fitted not JAWA as stated in the video, it had them when I bought the bike.

How many kilometres or miles did the vulcan have when you bought it? Because it looks and sounds really good

[Bearcatz5]

@C0verdale1 Hi, it had 12,000 miles on it when I got it, it does sound good, better than you can hear in the video.

What kind of exhaust is on your Vulcan 500?

[Bearcatz5]

They are slash-cut JAMA ones not JAWA as stated in the video, my mistake.

I do have a open ? Does anybody know the amount of oil to refill this bike, been told 3.2 Qt's & 4.2 Qt's with a new filter ? Thank's, yl

Nice bike you have, I have a 04 LTD model. I like the way the gauges are on the handle bars, mine are on the tank it makes it harder to read. I also like the wheel's on your bike. Mine has the wire spokes type. Like to find an older model and swap over the gauges & wheels. Then a great bike would be almost perfect. Mine had 2300 miles when I found it. Just about broken in good. To bad they stopped making them in 09. Have a ? What amount of miles to the tank do you get ? Best, yl

What does it say that a 5 year old Harley costs the same as a brand new Kaw? Does it say the Harley is a better bike and holds it's value better? Or does it say wow, they're asking a lot more than that bike is worth for what it is? A case can be made for either. Depends on what is important to you. If you can't be comfortable riding your Kaw into a parking area full of shiny Harleys then there's your answer. All I can say is, I love my ride, (EN500LTD) and I don't make payments.

@drewbocop

Drewbocop, thanks and I agree. This, for me, is a starter bike and I will keep it forever because it turned out to be a fantastic buy as well as a great ride. It handles so well I almost hate to move on. I'll move up to a bigger bike, but never to a Harley. I won't pay the premium and the enormous maitanence costs. Plus, they're just to darn loud. I'll probably stay on a Vulcan. Although I'm really liking the new Interstate from Honda. Ride safely!

@doug12361 Dude, many Harley's are shit compared to this bike. Old Harley's are unreliable. Plus, this bike is fast. For only 498cc, my bike easily pulls 5.5 0-60.

Bad copy of a Harley? I have one of these and am having the time of my life! Which is the whole point. I've run into you Harley snobs and honestly, yeah cool bike, but waaaay overpriced. The market is glutted with used Harleys asking almost sticker because a bunch of wannabes bought em and can't afford em. I'll stick with what I can afford and be just fine. Thanks. You can take your Harley and move on down the road. I'm not a lemming.

@dumapies well i'm giving you facts of why they run better , i don't see why you have to talk bad about them with out a reason just because they're not made in USA ,harleys is just a big name too expensive for what you get old obsolete technology they break and needs adjustments all the time one of my friends took his fresh out the shop parked in his garage and burned to the ground they run too hot, other friend use to have harley broke all the time bought a vulcan 800 he said never breaks

@KennyMckormickk

these bikes are just really bad copies of harleys, but whatever man...you guys aren't in touch with old school bikes so just stick to jap scrap
