April 19th, 3" of fresh snow! What the hell! Bought my first cruiser bike today, I haven't owned a bike in 10 years and before that I was riding an 06 R6. Once I walked in the sellers garage I knew this bike was coming home with me. It's a 2006 Kawasaki Vulcan 2000cc limited. Has only 22 thousand km. Mostly rode in Arizona by a snow bird. It's a good thing I have hand surgery in two days so I'm not tempted to ride until the roads are clear. Im so excited I had to share.

That is a nice clean bike. Congratulations. One of these days we will all have to get together for a snow and mud bike ride

Wow! I've never seen a Vulcan that looks that good! That bike is a beauty! Good luck on your hand surgery. How long will it be until you can ride it? And, any day is a good day to buy a bike!

That's a nice looking bike. Looks like you've been doing what the rest of have probably been doing the last few days, polish, polish, polish, rinse and repeat.:p

I'm hoping I will be recovered and ready to ride for June. That will give the roads time to be cleaned and hopefully other drivers are a little more aware of bikes on the roads. I am fighting the urge to order a set of pipes and have the ECM reflashed. Maybe over the winter it will get some upgrades.
