2013 Kawasaki Vulcan 900 Classic

Tucson, AZ

I purchased a new (2013 model year) cruiser, having felt pretty comfortable learning on the Honda Shadow VT600.
This Kawasaki is a bit bigger, a bit heavier, and a whole lot smoother to ride. Now I begin the process of modding it
to make it one of a kind. I'm not sure that ever ends but hope to have lots of fun along the way. So far so good.

Below, my youngest modeling as we were picking it up from the dealership in Santa Fe, NM.



Below, a quick iPhone selfie with the bike in tow. My daughter was a real trooper riding along for a grueling
"point A to point B" round trip that had us covering almost 1,100 miles in less than 2 days.



And a couple of weeks later after adding a windshield and an engine guard (just in case).


other sizes: small medium original auto

Beautiful HDR shots of your new cycle. And grueling though the journey may have been, for so many miles in such a short distance, I bet your daughter (and you) have great memories. Something special, alone time with Dad. Can't be beat. Have fun with your new bike.

Fathers and daughters have a special bond that covers 1100 mile trips to get a motorcycle :-)

A very nice raide! My last bike was a 650 Kwasaki 4 chylinder, sold in 1990. I loved that bike. Too old to ride now!

Big step in just six month. This one is much heavier! I wish you always a safe ride!
