The Appeal

Emerging stateside post-WW2 in order to shed as much weight a possible for standard or ex-military motorcycles for the purpose of street racing, the art of "bobbing" is still alive and well. Even more modern machines are getting the "Bobber" treatment, including this 1998 Kawasaki Vulcan VN 800 which now offers a captivating blend of classic style and modern upgrades thanks to several upgrades courtesy of Blue Collar Bobbers.

With premium parts imported from the USA, including a drag bar kit and 13” spring seat kit, this bike really looks the part, and we're assured that it's a joy to ride. Located in Barcelona, Spain, this well-maintained machine is ready for a new owner.
