alwrmcusn Posted January 6, 2013 #1 Posted January 6, 2013 Is there a Kawasaki forum(s) that are as good as Venture rider? I have a cousin who could benefit from having resources for his ride as we enjoy here.
Eck Posted January 6, 2013 #2 Posted January 6, 2013 Venturerider is one of a kind... There are many other motorcycle sites. Some are found to be helpful and some...well they just arent. Your cousin may have to sign up on a few and try them out...until then, I can only hope he is as lucky as I was to find one that is as freindly and helpful as VR.Org. In the mean time, if your cousin has a question or needs help, maybe he could tell you, and you post it here and just maybe we can offer some advice on his needs until he does find a helpful site..
Guest Swifty Posted January 6, 2013 #3 Posted January 6, 2013 I've visited here off and on when lookin into a Concours. http://concours.org/
KIC Posted January 7, 2013 #4 Posted January 7, 2013 What type of Kawasaki does he have ? There are Vulcan forums, KLR650 forums and Voyager that I have been on. Other than the KLR650 forum I wasn't on them very much since I joined just to help a friend who had the bikes and depended on me for information. If he is into dual sports, the ADVRider forum(s) are pretty good. You can get into a local area on the forum and meet and ride with locals.
djh3 Posted January 7, 2013 #5 Posted January 7, 2013 I joined a few when I had my Kawasaki. http://www.kawasakimotorcycle.org/forum/ (I probably used this on e the most) Has sections for different types bike, cruiser-touring-sport touring etc. http://forums.delphiforums.com/kawasaki900/start Dont seem to be a sbusy as the Kawasaki.org site. http://www.gadgetjq.com/gadgetsfixitpage.htm Although this site was put together by a guy for the 1500 & 1600 Nomads there is some very good overall info on maint, oils and filters and how to's. http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/VN900/ If its a 900 vulcan this Yahoo group was a good bunch of folks. There are other Kawi model groups on Yahoo. But not all are the same, the one for Ventures is pretty much dead. http://www.vulcanforums.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=49 Think I only went here acouple times. I still go to the first one I listed once in awhile.
alwrmcusn Posted January 7, 2013 Author #6 Posted January 7, 2013 I believe it's a Vulcan 900 T. They live and work just far enough away to not get together very often. I sent them a couple of those links. Thanks.
djh3 Posted January 7, 2013 #7 Posted January 7, 2013 Hmm dont recognize that letter as a model. C-custom Mine was a classic and was like B and then the LT his the classic with factory bags and windshield. All have same power plant. Custom had narrow front tire. Reliable bikes though. The yahoo group had a good knowledge base, but has had some fellows move on to different bikes in the last year year and half. The first link is probably the most resourceful one. And the Gadget fix has some good fixs for stuff that drives you nuts like a gas gauge that is in the yellow range after like 80-100 miles.
Whistler Posted January 7, 2013 #8 Posted January 7, 2013 There is a site called ( The american Voyager association headquarters) that covers all Kaw Check it out it has everything that can help a person out Ron:whistling:
Pegasus1300 Posted January 7, 2013 #9 Posted January 7, 2013 There used to be a good forum over on Delphi Forums. You would have to do a search for it tho as I can't remember the URL. www.delphiforums.com They want you to join their group and pay so much a month but you can become a basic member for free.You can also post and search without filling out a profile.
alwrmcusn Posted January 7, 2013 Author #11 Posted January 7, 2013 For djh3, that was supposed to be 900 LT ......oops
djh3 Posted January 7, 2013 #12 Posted January 7, 2013 Sota what I figured. Nice mid-level bike. I put over 35K on mine and only major thing I had to do was put a stator in it. Tires gas and oil otherwise. Mine averaged about 46mpg I think on trips, got 50 once or twice. I had the front Overdrive pulley, mustang seat and a pair of scootworks risers. I did give a link to the Delphi site in those that I posted pretty sure.
k9cottage Posted January 7, 2013 #13 Posted January 7, 2013 i found this site good for the vulcan models http://www.gadgetjq.com/gadgetsfixitpage.htm
GatecityAl Posted January 8, 2013 #14 Posted January 8, 2013 I would recommend www.vroc.org A great bunch of guys and gals who will help with any issues.
