Long story short I loved my gixxer 750 to death, modded the hell out of it and I designed a custom paint scheme for it and rode it all though college.

But, now that Im out of college, It was finally time for bike suited for longer distances. So, I sold my Gixxer and bought this Vulcan Meanstreak 1600cc today. I love this bike. Rides like a dream, dont have to fight the wind, and its got plenty of power. Wish I could own both, but im more than happy with my new bike.





Heres the gixxer:











Heres the Vulcan:

Both of them look awesome and I am sure you have somethings in mind for this one

I liked the orange crotch rocket better.

That was one sick looking Gixxer look really badass. The other one is nice and all but U should paint it to match ur car that would look sick.

[Dr.Manhattan]

Being a track star.... why on earth did you get rid of the Gixxer for a freaking Vulcan ?. I have my Honda 600 RR for the track, and at least a 2000 Hayabusa for the road. You need speed.

gsxr to that wow never seen that happen before....just dont put puma stickers on it.the gsxer looked real good except for the puma thing

[AzItaliaSS]

I smell lots of customizing in this bikes future!!!! Lots of good ole machine shop, bike builder chrome customizing! Sweet Austin!

After an 2hours on the road you would change your mind too. Just saying.
It was very fun for short rides, not so much for long ones

Haha, I want to go on long trips. Like 5-8 hour trips. Even on a busa thats way too long.

Ya it was hard, but in the future (few years) im going to pick up a 1000Gixxer, so i can have the best of both worlds.

And, my 750gixxer was a K6 that i bought for $4,200 which was a steal, I found it in the middle of nowhere ohio on craigslist, put a grand into the paint and mods, and sold it for $6,800.

And this vulcan I got for a steal too only $4,900 with 2 new tires, and battery.

I agree, but for anything more than 2 hours on the gixxer = back, wrist and ass pain. Thats what she said.
