Thanks for the comments everyone! I ended up purchasing a 1998 Kawasaki Vulcan 800A for $1,500. Definitely feels like a bigger bike to say the least. I can already tell a positive difference when merging in traffic on the onramps, etc. It is exactly what I need as compared to the GZ for the type of riding I do. Will be posting the GZ for sale at some point soon. Just got to give it an oil change (it's about due in 500 miles) and reinstall the throttle side handlebar balancer (bar end) that had come off. Fortunately there's a topic on the bar end reinstall that looks helpful!
