Does anybody know a good Kawasaki dealer in Florida that I can come and buy a Vulcan 2000 classic? Dealers near where I live (Tallahassee) do not have this bike available in store. Thanks.  

My VN2000 has 17,500 miles on the clock and has been faultless for 4 years. Fuel consumption is 40 to 45 mpg solo and 45 to48 mpg two up (nagging keeps the throttle steady!)with tyres lasting 4000 miles rear, 6000 miles front.I had new front brake pads fitted at 14000 miles but no other parts have worn out yet.This bike still scares me rigid when I'm riding like a lunatic and shames quite a few sportsbikes off the line. Now what I want to know is does anybody do a rear wheel for a 240 section rear tyre either here in the UK or shipped from USA?  

Hey guys-
Check out www.kawasakimotorcycle.org . It's a VERY complete forum site sponsored by a Kawa dealer, and it's divided into different styles and models of bikes, though all users are welcome in all forums. There you'll find a LOAD of V2K owner/operators!
Enjoy!

I bought my new Vulcan 2000 L.T. last Saturday. WOW !!! What a fantastic bike. My wife loves it as much as I do. She is busy planning trips for us to take. The power is awesome and it handles great. And what a smooth ride. I calculated out its mpg for its first tank full of gas and it got 44 mpg. I think this is great for such a huge bike carrying me and my wife and lots of stop and go riding. When fueling up my new Vulcan some guy came over checked it out and said what a great looking bike it is. When polishing it in the driveway a neighbor also told me what a beautiful bike it is. Its red and black. I took the wind shield off and like it a lot better, the way it looks and the ride. Anyway, This FORUM sure helped me decide on the Vulcan 2000 L.T. Thanks guys. I am super happy with mine, Amigosaki3.  

Hey ! Where is every body at ? Can anyone give me some info on K&N air filters for the Vulcan 2000 ? Is it worth the investment ? Does it help with gas mileage ? Thanks for any info, Amigosaki3.

Con not a popular bike gadgetry not found with most seller, you have to go to your dealer for Kawasaki stuff, If you take the limited the windshield is a little short.

I have a 2005 vk 2000 fast powerfull very forgiving power funest bike i have ever road what a rush  

I own a '05 VN2000, I've got 28750 miles on it and love every mile.  I changed the exhaust to Vance & Hines Power Shot and put in a Power Commander to enhance the power curve.  Not that it needed it, but what the heck.  The only complaints I have is the seat isn't very comfortable after a couple of hours, and the back tire doesn't last as long as I thought it should.  Part of the tire wear is my fault, it's very hard to resist that right wrist twist.  As far as reliability, I have never had any problems, always started right away.  If you are even thinking about the 2000, get it,  that "occasional road trip" will turn into a fun addiction.  

ive got 2 friends who recently purchased KAW 2000s.both of them are very happy not only with the bike but with the price also.  

I have been riding since the late 60's and haved owned every TYPE of scoot there is.  I quess I am a sportbike speed freek.  Two years ago I was in the market for a new bike.  I already owned a 97 sportbike.  I wanted the new Kaw 1400 or Hyabusa, but I thought of Insurance, driving points, my driving habits and life.  Still regret not going down that road, a may trade in next year for the 1400 sport touring kawasaki.  But I looked at *** fit (I am 6-ft @ 190 lbs), finish, looks, accesories, and the whole picture.  I went for the 2007 vn2000 classic lt. It is not a sport bike, but it is a great bike. The yamahas were great, but my knee came above the tank and they would not dicker on the price(they sold the bike 4 months ago for 60%).  Suzuki and Honda did not come with the full package, and Harley wanted $20K+ for the same set up.  I compute to work 80% of the time 12 months out of the year. The rest of my driving is on trips.  I find the windshield tall enough, seat is good for two hours (ten min. leg stretch will do), of course I am push 55 so I believe a Goldwing seat would not fare much better. I have ran from Canada to Mexico in one day when I was younger, but not today.  I get about 44 mpg and if I try hard I can get 50 mpg, but drive like I am 80 on those days.  That is the best thing about the bike. The power and tourqe will set you free.  You can cruise around a pull from any gear or you can run the freeway at 90+ with the pretties sound you will ever hear.  There are no straight roads in west virginia including the interstates.  I went on a four hour trip with a friend on his Hyabusa, running up the interstate pushing 100, and the thing just purred, my friend took up the rear because he said he just loved the sound.  I got around 40 mpg that trip. In town if you want you can see which you can burn faster the gas or the rear tire.  I enjoy and respect my bike so keep away from the fast starts.  Gas, tires and belts cost to much.  The bike handle realy well on the road, it is a dragger, and at low speeds.  I can tool around a parking lot at speeds less than 10 mph.  If I were to purchase another cruiser, I would not purchase the 07, I would go for the 09, but it would be the vn2000 classic lt. I believe it comes all black next year.
