Downsides of downgrading (Vulcan S to Ninja 400) Recently got a Vulcan S in October, and have major buyer’s remorse.  It’s a great bike, and a nice introduction to cruisers (which was my main reason for getting it), but ultimatelyI don’t think I’m a cruiser guy.  I miss the sport riding position, especially at higher speeds or when attacking twisties.

I had a Honda CB500F before this, so I’m a big fan of sport nakeds.  But I won’t be able to buy a Z900 for another couple years as I’m saving for a house.

So I’m considering trading in my Vulcan for a Ninja 400 so I can at least get back on a sportbike.

If I do this, what regrets might I have performance-wise?
