Looking at buying a used 1998 Kawasaki Vulcan 1500. Anyone know of any
issues with this bike to watch out for?
Thank you.

I'm not sure what years, but it was pretty common for them to leak oil
from seals and although it's a ten cent seal, it's a take the engine
apart job...
There are a number of Vulcan sites, check them out first.
Want the real answer?
a used Honda Valkyrie
bullet proof, powerful (much more powerful) reliable, smooth and easy to
get nice ones on eBay or check your local listings. You can pick up a
sweet Valky for like ~$6 to 8K depending on year and model.
thank me later

Pay particular attention to oil leaks from the final drive unit. Many
have issues here...
