Want your opinion - Boulevard S50 vs. Kawasaki Vulcan 750

Currently own a 1996 Suzuki Savage LS650. I enjoy the bike, but for a
few different reasons I am considering a new one and will probably
move up to something in the 750/800cc range.

I like the look of the Bouelvard S50 a little better. It has a
slightly larger engine than the Vulcan.

However, I like the handlebar arrangement of the Vulcan better. Other
pluses for the Vulcan: slightly less expensive, lots of stock
instrumentation (tach, speedo, tripmeter, fuel gauge, etc.) and all
right up front where I can see it easily w/o taking my eyes off the
road.

Beyond this, would anyone care to share an opinion on other issues I
should consider? Which bike do you like better and why?

(note: An ~800cc bike is about as large a bike as I need, I figure,
considering my short legs. I've decided for now to rule out the
Sportster due to the price.)

I own a VN750. Nice bike, great mileage and fun to ride but . . .

If your big like me 260# seriously consider an aftermarket seat.

Also they have a weak electrical system. The voltage R&R is
located just above the pre-muffler (goats belly for the purist) and
in time will either have to be relocated or replaced in a cooler
location.

You do get more bang for the buck with a vn750, but frankly a step up
from a 650 to a 750 won't offer much of anything. The new 900LT by
Kawasaki is fuel injected, belt driven and has a nice accessory touch to
it. It may be a bit larger then what you were looking for but check it
out.

Tell you what, you buy my 750 and I'll buy the 900LT!
