Because I suck at modern-day vlogging, I’d rather write blogs about it.
So forget the daily life stories, I’d rather show you the behind-the-scenes. Over the past couple of months I’ve taken more photos and videos of modifying and repairing my motorcycle than I’ve shared on Instagram, YouTube or TikTok.
As of this month, I’ve had my motorcycle for two years, not too long after getting my licence, I picked up this completely stock 1999 Kawasaki Vulcan 800 Classic for around €2,500 with just over 18,000 km on the clock. My only goal at the time was to gain experience, put km under my belt and explore.
As much as I would love to own a Harley-Davidson, at the time I just wanted something affordable quick so I could get out and ride straight away. Besides, at the end of the day I know I will eventually end up with either the good ol’ Panhead or Shovelhead. Worst case? Probably an EVO but not anything later than that.
These are some of the photos and video when I picked up the bike. It was about a 30 min ride back home with no front brake and left mirror tilted to wrong side lol.
