2009 Kawasaki Vulcan® 1700 Nomad™ REVIEW

My 09 Vulcan Nomad

Reliability:

Review: Sure enjoy the ride, and easy starting engine. It is a joy to ride, and I get a lot of positive comments about the bike. I hear that some are concerned about the belt drive, and after owning a shaft drive last time, I must say that this belt drive is more efficient, and I don't get any of the driveline windup and torque. I hope it lasts a long time, being carbon fiber instead of kevlar, I'm sure it'll be expensive to replace. Kawa redid their 1700 engine, and when I engage the tranny into first, it gives a resounding 'clunk', morso than any other bike I've ever owned. Any one else having this issue? Thx!
Features: The cruise control and six speed!
Improvements: More seat options... I'm six four, and it's a little short, although not as bad as the others i've had.

Review: Love the bike, but the fact that "Kawasaki" or "Vulcan" is stamped all over it, has kept me from buying another. Leave the branding to Nike and Harley. Give me a quality product that I can personalize. Believe it or not, there are a majority of us "non-sheeple" out here that don't wear somebodys name on our shirt or vote Obama.
Features: The styling on the 1700 Classic. No cheesy highway bars or windshield w/ a beltbuckle stamped to the front of it.
Improvements: More color options. Quit stamping "Kawasaki" or "Vulcan" all over it. Concentrate on the quality, not the name.

Why mess with a good thing?

Review: Having just purchased a new 2008 Blue & Silver kawasaki Nomad 1600; I was disappointed to see that kawasaki had given in to dropping the shaft drive in favor of a belt. The one main reason I bought the 2008 Nomad, was to get a bike with nearly zero maintenance and WITH a shaft drive. Having owned and maintained a belt drive Harley for over 20 years, I can assure you that belt drives may be efficient but do not live long lives around crushed gravel roads which can destroy a belt in short order from debris. A steel propeller shaft spinning inside a sturdy steel swing-arm makes a whole lot better sense and will out last the bike. Belt changes are a headache and having to avoid gravel and dirt roads limit the sense of freedom which a bike should provide. It is obvious Kawasaki has decided to target the Harley Davidson Ultra-Glide Classic with the new Voyager . A bike which although offers the benefits of additional power, cruise control and a music system is now nothing more or less than a glorified rendition of the Milwaukee brand. In so doing, Kawasaki's bean counters saw benefits in reduced manufacturing costs by tossing the ring & pinion gear set, attendant housings, universals and shaft drive in favor of a cheap belt. Big Mistake Kawasaki. I for one am so thankful I bought the last model year of the Shaft Driven Nomad. This leaves only Honda, Suzuki and Yamaha with a line of shaft drive cruisers aside from the European offerings.
Improvements: Go ahead and build the 1700 but offer it with a shaft drive: or make it an 1800 to rival the now discontinued Honda VTX 1800; but with enhanced performance and exclusivity from the Harleys. BMW and Moto-Guzzi & Triumph Rocket III's will now siphon off market share for those of us who are shaft drive purists and will no longer consider Kawasaki.
