You should work for Ducati, they couldn't figure out rerouting the exhaust would fix it.

He's dead.

You could drive it down there next week. I hear the weather looks decent.

Yes, but less stupid than the Ducati TARDS as this is easily fixed.

Come on, dude is just talking shit on the internet. Every thread on OR is 99 percent the same, stop taking yourselves so seriously.

We appreciate it, thanks for taking one for the team.

I forgot the one big annoying issue. Factory specs on the belt are WAY too tight. It squeals like a pig in West Virginia. 3/8" to 7/16" of deflection at 10 lbs is the proper setting to fix that issue.

Bet he is trying to use the full version on the phone.

Probably too many big words.

Oh, and I am in Seven Hills if you want to look at it without a sales droid breathing down your neck. It will be at my house for a few more weeks, then into my father in laws garage after that. But he is just a few blocks away.

I love it. Bought it new at the end of the 2013 season and have about 33K on it. I will drive it to 100K or so, maybe more. I test drove every bike in the same class before I bought this. Nothing really grabbed me and made me smile like it did. There are tons of them out there at 150k to 250k with no major issues. No major issues, but a couple of things to watch out for. The steering head bearings suck. They are crappy lightweight ball bearings. There is a great aftermarket set of tapered rollers that we all use, like 30 bucks and all is well. Most people replace them around 20k, it starts to feel weird. Factory tires suck, worst tires I have ever had. Hated the rear so much I replaced it at 4k. Michelin Commander II's or Dunlop Elite III's are the tire of choice for it. 20K on a rear is the norm with either of those. There is a recall on the ignition switch, so when you get yours run the VIN with Ma Kaw to see if it needs to be done or has been done. Not a big deal, a few people had a wire on the switch rub against the tank. For comfort and mods: I don't like looking through a windshield. So I replaced the factory one with a Clearview recurve that sits just at my nose. Tosses the wind over my head just fine. That is personal choice, some people like to look through a windshield I guess. Highway pegs on the crash bars. Kury grips, a cup holder, little holster for my e-cig/vap and a ram mount for my phone. One big mod, a dude in Canada makes a fork brace. I ride pretty hard for a big cruiser guy and the front forks flex a bit when leaned over hard. The brace fixed that, I love it. But unless you scrap floor boards a lot you won't need it. The wheel base is shorter, so a bit more crowded 2 up, the plus side is it turns really well for a big bike. Wife and I fit on it just fine, but both of us are on the skinny side. Tons of room for a weeks worth of junk for the two of us. The rear shocks adjust both for load (air) and damping....you can tune it easily for what you have on the bike so it rides very well. I suggest 2012 or newer if you can swing it. In 2012 they put an air management system on it to get rid of a lot of the heat on the right side. You can retrofit it on the earlier models but it is like 500 bucks. If you are thinking new you should be able to get that bike all day long for under 16k. I paid 15,500 for mine new and that included shipping since Ohio Motorcycle didn't have one. And it is the ABS model. And I love the ABS, I will never own another bike without it. Also, in 2011 they changed the gearing a bit and changed the EFI a bit. 2011+ is noticeably peppier, especially at 50mph and up for passing. There are two pretty busy forums for this bike. Often used ones for sale there, if I see any I will speak up. http://vulcanbagger.com/forums/ http://forums.delphiforums.com/n/main.asp?webtag=kawvulcan&nav=messages&start=Start+Reading+%3E%3E&prettyurl=%2Fkawvulcan%2Fmessages%2F%3Fstart%3DStart%2BReading%2B%253E%253E&gid=1877977879

I can help with Voyager questions if you have any assuming you are thinking 2009 or newer.

Www.google.com Http://www.google.com Need the htpp:// in front of it would be my bet.

I know of what I speak. If the newer ones are the same as the gen 2 you will have NO back brake.

So that would make the engineers at Ducati idiots. Especially since the didn't fix it even with a recall. Kind of like the gas tank bullshit too. But my understanding is that the issue is heat, they fade badly when hot, and get very hot because it is right next to the damn exhaust.

By app do you mean Tapatalk? Not complaining, for a change, just making sure I am not missing anything. Mobile site is just fine.

Get ABS no matter what. And yea, the rear brakes on the gen 2's blows dead goats, I forgot about that. Hopefully this gen is better.

So her computer blew up, which Casper takes care of. Her password was all messed up which Casper changed because he allowed OR to get hacked. And she is overwhelmed with kids, again because of Casper. Thanks Casper.

I keep mine in my ass, on vibrate.

With a trunk and saddle bags? Was the battery dead?

Also take a good look at how much higher my passenger seat is than where I sit. Similar to your future bike but not as pronounced, and how much further you have to stand away from the bike to clear the saddle bags. If your nuts are up against the tank you will kick your saddle bag.

Put a trunk on that thing when you buy it and let me know how that works out for you. My way can't be that hard, I am old as hell.

That's how I get on. Has nothing to do with height. Keeps you from scuffing your seat or dropping the leg too soon and scuffing some plastics. All the smart kids do it.
