Greetings everyone,
Been riding since 2007, Looking for other people to ride with in and around Birmingham.
I've got two bikes,
A 1981 Suzuki Gn400 (https://scontent-atl3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/14225603_10208517256501217_3785435568742609416_n.jpg?oh=12cfb7b326190f8920941feba89f3887&oe=586EE429)
and a 2004 Kawasaki Vulcan 750 (https://scontent-atl3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/14040149_10208353842775976_1705202493569588398_n.jpg?oh=ab2b7b840f6073f8e205bedc6fafc538&oe=5843834C)

Welcome. That Vulcan looks nice! I'v been thinking about getting a mid-size cruiser in the 750-900cc range.

If i Could make a recommendation, I would avoid the 750 vulcans unless your comfortable working on your own bike. I've owned this one since 2006, and it's an 04. It has been very finicky over the years. If you do some research you'll find that electrical problems are not uncommon. Neither is stators burning out, and when it does you can either pull the motor or cut into the case with a rotary tool (referred to as the tuxedo mod)
However, If you're comfortable with turning a wrench and consulting google occasionally. then you WILL NOT find a Smoother more powerful 750 out there.
I weigh 396Lbs as I'm writing this, My wife weighs 190Lbs (or thereabouts) and even though we're 200Lbs over the weight limit... It pulls us Just fine, I would dare to say it hauls Ass (mine and hers)
It's the only 750 I know of that makes 68Hp from the factory (which tends to be 10% underrated)
Welcome, Cheese. And kudos to you for being brave enough to post your wife's weight! Very adventurous that is!
Welcome from LA.... Lower Alabama.... THE Redneck Riviera.... Welcome aboard!!!

Welcome from Florence. I don't think you'll have a problem fitting in here.
Welcome to the forum. I to had a Vulcan 750. Didn't have any problems with mine other than the stator. Did the mod. It could be replace with in an hour. The seat and passenger backrest I did to mine was the best thing sense sliced bread. Stock seat was a killer for my azz.
Welcome from Birmingham! I love the look of that Suzuki. We're glad to have you.
Hey welcome from the Inverness area!
Welcome from cahaba heights. I had a Vulcan 750 as my starter bike, Pulled the motor to replace the stator about 3 months into ownership. Great little bikes. Hell mine ran a low 14 in the 1/4 mile with my 270 lb butt on it. Amazing how well they can handle for a cruiser.
And welcome to the nucking futhouse.
Welcome from Tuscaloosa.
Hey welcome from Inverness.
