Don´t know much about the Vulcan 900, but the C50T is an awesome bike! I have a 2006 c50T and I love it. In fact, I went to the motorcycle shop the other day and sat on every single bike they have there, and nothing was more comfortable than my C50T (except for the goldwing of course). You can´t beat the looks, quality, and price of the C50T. Most people have motorcycle envy with my Suzuki!
