We purchased a 1995 Kawasaki Vulcan from the Lewis Center location in May of this year while we were in Ohio. The bike fit my son who is 6’3″ and about 300 pounds but we were concerned with the year of the bike and its reliability. Not knowing much about bikes as he had only been riding for two months, he test rode the bike just for fit and comfort. We paid cash for the bike at 3500. out the door which was approximately 1700. more than blue book value, however after looking for him a bike for some time that he was comfortable on and with the assurance of the sales man that the bike had no mechanical issues, we bought the bike. My son was able to ride it about 8 miles before we started having problems, the bike has been in the shop since we bought it, blowing gas out the tail pipe due to incomplete burn. We have had carburetor work done, and have now been told we need to replace the CDI box which is 489. for the part alone. The mechanic said he can see where someone had tried to get into the CDI box and that visible work had been done so someone knew there was a problem; in addition to this fact when my son was ready to ride it they took it back into the garage for something to be done to it out of our sight. After speaking to the mechanic about this, we have been told that if they put a new spark plug in immediately before riding, the problem would be masked for a small period of time so the ride would be smooth but after that small period of time the spark plug would foul out. However by that time, the bike had been paid for. We should have been made aware of the issue before we bought it as it took all the money he had saved up just to buy and put few miles on it. The CDI box on testing only had two live wires coming out of it so in essence the complete electric system has to be replaced and they had to have known.
