What an incredible machine. Rode a 95 1500 vulcan 88 for six years and traded for a 02 fxdl dyna lowrider. There is no comparison. The twin cam 88 feels nearly as powerful as the twin plug/twin carb. vulcan with better fuel mileage. the balance and stability is probably the best of any cruiser I have ever ridden (with the exception of the v-rod). Fit and finish were outstanding and visually the lowrider has always been a great looking machine. I would highly recommend this motorcycle to anyone and feel it is the most versitle of all the newer HD bikes.
