Sorry to Swear...
07/24/11 at 05:58:15
I've inherited a Kwack EN500 (Vulcan) from my old man...
He got it new in '93 and last rode it in 2001.. only 4K on the clock..
In mint condition apart from a more than rusty tank.... Not had the chance to ride it yet but I know I'm not going to like her...
I've had my Sav for over 2 years and I just can't swap her for a Kwack... despite my squeeky belt....

The Vulcan 500 is very good bike! That's a Ninja motor on that puppy.

If you decide you can not except this inheritance.
pass it my way...
Nice to know it will remain in the family. Is ok to
swear when it means a new to you bike..

your belt is too tight! you should be able to twist it at a 45 degree angle. mine will squeak a bit when wet but other than that, never.

I had belt squeak as well. I adjusted the tension so I can turn it 90 deg without too much effort. Then I centered it in the rear sprocket. No more squeak.
