Falling in love

Seen one of these in amsterdam a few weeks away & i fell in love

if you ever wanted an old Indian, but dont have the copious amounts of moeny to afford one, check this out

Kawasaki VN Drifter 1500





i LOVE the masive fenders & the elongated frame

droooool.....

I'm a cruiser-head myself, I'd have to say I don't like it... I'd prefer the more modern Rocket III myself!

yeah the rcket is nice, but i have realised that i will never own an indian, & this is pretty close

I want to trade up to one of these in the next few years. They are part of the Kawasaki "replica" range which includes the W650/400, Estrella, and Drifter models.

Pictures do not do the Drifter any justice, it is a monster of a bike and makes even the biggest Harleys look small.

I don't think it was available with a single seat , alot of people in the States insisted on putting on a very camp studded single seat on to them. The pic in the middle with the sky blue paint is the original seat and it really sets the bike off.

If you're going to get one make sure you get the original seat with it.


Oh yes it will be mine

but yeah the bike is frickin huge, its over 8 feet long

B-b-b-but its been soiled , no amount of Autoglym could remove the "dirty" feeling of having a gahey saddle.

all you need are some frilly chaps & a frilly leather jacket with beads on it & people will never notice the seat

how much is he looking for it anyway?
