Re: Bought a Vulcan EN750 on e-bay today
Hey Bill,
I am attending SPSU in Marietta. We probably have passed since I ride through Kennesaw back and forth each week as I travel home on the weekends up towards Tennessee. WW, I hope your Corbin seat comes in soon and I hope it takes care of your discomfort. Corbin is known for making great seats. Let's see some pictures when you get it. |

If I am real smart I will post pics of the stocker, the gel and the Corbin seat for comparison.

Why don't you get one like this? Looks real comfy.

I already have a backrest to lean on but the map pocket on that highback might be handy.

Re: Bought a Vulcan EN750 on e-bay today
I bought a rack from a guy on the VN750 Forum. His name is Matt and he makes these as a sideline. He is a machinist by trade and did a great job. This baby is made from solid stock, not tubing and I have no doubt the mounting bolts would shear off before the rack ever bent. I painted it and installed it today and got my trunk bag mounted. Here are a few pics.

Nice rack. Looks well thought out and finished with some care. Looks like you have a touring bike now.

Re: Bought a Vulcan EN750 on e-bay today
Thanks WW, I'm close to having the 750 where I want it. It's a pleasure to ride except for the seat, which is my next project for it. Once that is completed I think it will be my favorite of the three bikes I've had as an adult. (GZ 250, Vulcan 500 and Vulcan 750). I took it for a nice spin up Lookout mountain on Nick-A-Jack Road Saturday night and she really hugs the curves well and no lack of torque to climb the mountain even in the highest gear. She ran nice and smooth as I traveled across the top on Highway 157 and was really just a pleasure to ride.

Color me envious. I haven't had a night ride this year and I do need one. Little to no traffic, I can ride a lot slower and smell the flowers plus the solitude of being very alone. Shoulda been a hermit.
