2000 kawasaki VN 1500 Vulcan Classic Questions & Answers
How do I remove my mustang seat from my 2000 kawasaki vulcan 1500 classic?
On my Roadstar and my Triumph Thunderbird there is a bolt at the back of the pillion seat you remove, slid the pillion back and out then remove (2) allen head bolts from each side of the riders seat just under the edge of the seat. Slide the seat back and off. If you go to www.bikebandit.com they have a parts breakdown of most bikes and it will show the locations of the bolts and brackets. Good luck!

Stuck in 1st and neutral is correct on a Kawasaki...2nd won't engage until the output shaft is turning at approx. 12 mph. This is to make neutral easier to find at a standstill. If you spin the back wheel to a decent speed by hand then second should engage. The stalling problem when trying to pull away is due to the sidestand switch...it's either sticking or not engaging with it's activating bracket properly. If it stalls as soon as you put it in 1st then the microswitch on the clutch lever has a problem also...
Where is the slave cylinder located at on this
It is behind the engine cover on the left side of the bike.
Remove left driver foot peg or floorboard and shifter and the case is a few bolts to get off. No oil will leak when cover is removed.

My friends Vulcan is backfiring thru the carb. Any
Check out the inlet tappet clearance as they could be to tight OR
A burnt out inlet valve seat having a slight burn trace or a Cracked seat OR the timing is out of wack by 1 or 2 mm.
Once you have check out the above and fixed the problem you will be riding high . Ron
