Kawasaki Vulcan? Anyone ridden one??

Wonder if they made any enhancements with the newer models or made the handling any better.

I'm not knocking the Vulcan, it is a good bike for it's intended purpose. But like most cruisers the low stance and floorboards limit lean angles and because of the long wheel base, turn in is a bit slow with the tendency to feel like the bike is falling into the turn. It was a comfortable and steady bike out on the highway in it's element.
