Interesting video, thank you... Just booked a Kawasaki Vulcan 650SE here in Adelaide, Australia.. In Australia, this particular model comes in three versions-S($11200), SE(special edition-$11400), and S Cafe(aprx $11700).. The S looks the same as in this video, SE has a blue shade appearance on the fuel tank and the wheels and also shiny and a silver shade on the engine, and the S cafe has a grey shade but also comes with a windshield type of thing from the headlight. Otherwise, the specifications all remain the same.. Here the bike comes without a pillion seat but obviously, you can buy it as an extra. While you have just a learner's license(at least in SA) you are not allowed to carry a co-passenger anyway. Since this video was shot in Bangalore; I remember my salad days in the Garden City where I used to cruise around in my Rajdooth 175 and Yamaha RX100 during 1993-97 and several interstates ride back home to Kerala and later in Tamil Nadu where I continued my studies. After many years of hibernation that Yamaha was brought back to its former glory last year and still back home in Kottayam, Kerala.. Oh man..you brought back to me all those great memories... Thank you again for this video...

[@almondnine]

review starts from 3:55 😁 reason I am saying this is broadband is not really 4G class everywhere in India.

[@patlerahulkumar]

he he.. true that.. 20 minute video could be shrink to 5-9 minute if he could have been efficiently put the content.

[@atulshukla7372]

Thanx

[@Rohitsingh-hq3tn]

Thanx brother

[@bikashkalita3502]

thank you

[@travellover3373]

I thought it was just me. Too much words said irrelevant to the bike.

[@creepy448]

Don't buy Vulcan without seeing my comment.

[@downeck78]

Bro...that traffic! How do you it? You need to come to the High Desert here in California and enjoy open roads and endless empty highways. Enjoyed your video.

[@judsonbuckner8590]

Yo, where in cali? I just got stationed here and im looking into getting a bike

[@kewintaylor7056]

Just like in Bangkok!lol

[@jonesfactor9]

I’m riding a 2010 900 custom. It’s got just under 63,000 miles on it and all I’ve done is brakes, tires, oil changes and exhaust damper bushings. Had valve clearances checked at 29k and they were all well within specs. Cannot say enough good things about Kawasaki

[@kircyclone]

Dude... you touching the full foot both the sides is a great news for 5.4 inch person like me.

[@travisj2370]

im from Australia and i think its safe to say the intro music will make this video sound like a old cop show or something along those lines :D

[@hdtcustoms11188]

Am customizing Vulcan s from last 1 and half weeks . I love the performance and smoothness and most importantly it is comfortable . Good one

[@josephpinczer]

HDT Customs for me it was down to this and the Bolt. I went Bolt. More power and just a better feel for me. Only downside for me is I wish it had a 6th gear but not really a big issue. Can’t go wrong with either bike

[@prasann1989]

What’s the fuel efficiency?

[@mohan02]

You forgot to mention the 'ergo-fit' feature on offer on this bike.

[@miketan2459]

loved your video,bro, from los angeles california rider.

[@shivoham2255]

Awesome review!!! You've covered almost all areas. It was really helpful. Just one more thing... what's the service interval for Vulcan?

[@AjayDuttTyagi]

The narration is quite good never missed common problem we use to face while driving... Keep it UP BOL

[@mitchelllorens]

Very nice narrative from a real riders point of view. I particularly enjoyed your clips in heavy traffic. I've never visited India but have heard and seen some legendary fraught traffic. I'm just an easy rider on my KVS and it's still quite new to me. I personally find the throttle quite touchy and that makes me a little nervous in traffic. I need more experience but agree it's a solid all around good bike. However still I'm not sure it's for me as it's first cruiser. So enjoyed your point of view and scenery. Good narrative, I'll see more. thanks for posting !

[@MrGchiasson]

I'm ready to trade in my Honda Shadow 750 for a Vulcan 900 custom. Might get a 2017 model. Very nice bike.

[@mikecaputo16]

Did you trade in? This review is for the Vulcan S (650cc motor). The Vulcan 900 Custom is equally nice but different - belt drive and a 900cc motor.

[@anshulmishra5633]

Subscribed you for the lucid explanation... No extravaganz but straight logical explanation... Kudos Patnaik ji

[@stevengerrard6990]

Sir I am a big big fan of yours!!! Just one question: should I buy this bike or the Hyosung Aquila 650

[@uchitshah2096]

Steven Gerrard that is a good question. I think this would be a better bike than GV 650... Though I would let the experts comment on this

[@chefmax922]

Kawasaki Vulcan S is the motorcycle to go.

[@kruisr7449]

I wouldn't buy such a bike for that traffic! It's insane! Such a bike is for free roads, free highways.

[@raghu-vs3mi]

Bhai don't always say u are short hieght , your the inspiration to many of us

[@avinashgovindravindranath5804]

Superb presentation 👍

[@ericbateman6251]

Kawasaki has Parallel twin motor. They are good in heat management. Harley uses a V-twin which is really bad when it comes to the vibration.

[@racerfouji82]

Sir, harley street 750 konsa lena chiye....abs ta non abs ..??

[@somshilimkar6558]

6:57 Elephant on left :D

[@wadhwa_neeraj]

I first thought how could I miss such a big animal then I click on the time code and saw an RE 😂😂😂.

[@bhagyeshchokhawala2403]

not to criticize but people need to understand diff. between street bike, touring bike, cruiser and sportbike. Each one has their own characteristics we should not expect mixed characteristics in the single bike.

[@getmartincarter]

Change your script writer : cut all the chatter and get right to the specs and price for the base model with ABS you need to start off by stating the bike is a 650 water cooled parallel twin high revving engine with a 270 degree firing interval . How long does that take . No one is going to look at the website . Tell your viewers the engine is the same 650 used by Kawasaki in the Versys 650 and the new Kawasaki 650 sports bike . Say the engine is well tried and tested . Discuss the price in local currency and US $ ! Only then speak about your ride , how far , gas mileage , top speed and brakes . As a cruiser mention your height and seat heights . Mention the ergo fit system and accessories . I won’t subscribe to your channel because you don5 cover the specs . Covering the specs does no5 need to go into compression rations or the 6 speed gear box rations or the interesting fact that the gear box is a cassette style and can be changed without removing the engine . Change your script writer or employ a professional voice over as you speak too quickly .

[@dp9414]

im sure he's heartbroken you wont subscribe.......

[@aparajeetnadar127]

Lol here comes a professional youtuber with 10 million followers

[@nirmalyamisra]

Martin Carter I think he is doing just fine!

[@prathyush1097]

Whats the use of telling the price in usd? He's doing really well and this is the type of review that we prefer.

[@isaacmadhavan]

LM 10 ---> How quickly we come to the defence of someone we like! First off, Bulu Biker seems to be an intelligent person and a very nice person too. Now that that's out of the way... I'd like to stress that "improvement" is of paramount importance. Since we look forward to "new & improved", shouldn't we - on a personal basis - seek to be "new & improved" as well? So, then, there's nothing wrong with accepting criticism; it's a way to improve. Agreed, not ALL points of criticism would be valid from a certain "local" perspective (as opposed to a global perspective); however, when it is plain that Martin Carter has put in quite a bit of effort to give some input, it should just be appreciated as such.

[@venkateshtamil1816]

Bro you are trying to hide ground clearance

[@917shah]

one of the most awaited bike reviews finally accomplished..... first and for most, who cares about slipper stay cool :)your video connects with people saral n simple ;) thanks again, bulu bhai for such detailed explanation or beast looking bike in its segment.... looking forward for more inersting videos.

[@First-me8nx]

I really enjoyed your honest review of this motorcycle. Thank you and i hope you have continued success.

[@deepakjaiswal7630]

plz make a video on average of this bike.. 😍 I love this bike so much. but only avoid due to average said by company.

[@hcdangan]

Hey man thanks for using English on this video. I am planning to buy a Vulcan S myself! This is the best review of the Vulcan S that I've seen so far.

[@blessonvlogs777]

This will be a nice and easy upgrade for me... Bcoz... I'm having a Bajaj avenger 220. Almost same shape.... Handling style...

[@meisshyam]

The Harley is air cooled which means it needs to keep going to cool down the engine not so good for city drives in traffic, whereas the Vulcan is liquid cooled

[@jagdishm3072]

Big point you made ... in India it’s impossible to drive in traffic comfortably and fast without keeping one leg on the foot rest and rear brake ...

[@ziddiboy13]

How exactly is the braking on your harley davidson street 750? I am planning to buy one, but I am skeptical regarding its brakes.

[@rocky_barua]

I always travel with pillion. Few doubts. 1. Does the grab rail obtrust the pillion leg? Inner thigh to be precise. And while getting on / off the bike 2. Does the pillion seat in a comfortable (neutral) way or are the legs perched up like most bikes because rear seat to pillion foot peg distance is too less? 3. If fully loaded (like your Dominor ) with luggage and pillion what will be the ground clearance in real life situation? Not Leh / Ladakh but country roads of South India?

[@ambig1]

If Bajaj Avenger can have a ground clearance of 175mm, and Royal Enfield with 180mm+ , there is no excuse this bike has 130mm ground clearance. This is not for india. Currently there is no upgrade available for bajaj avenger owners.

[@8153max]

I love your bare bones down to earth reviews👍

[@mylifeivlog]

Loved your way of bike review...learning alot!

[@JONOMPNJ]

Very precise and informative. Bullu Bhai is the best...

[@lapirk]

Nice talk but wouldve been nice if you included some riding review shots 👍

[@clintwestwood5187]

These bikes are a waste on our overcrowded and broken roads. Their full potential is rarely explored...

[@sidharthpradhan7912]

Hi bulu bhai .what is best between ninja 300 vs ninja 400 for Bangalore City and touring purpose.does ninja 400 exhaust creates problem as it's placed just below the foot peg????

[@palakag]

thankyou bulu bhai for making such a fantastic video on my comment..it was like u were talking to me directly.. really appriciate it and definitely going to buy vulcan s

[@badapple65]

OMG! If I had to ride in that traffic it sure wouldn’t be on my Vulcan but in a big SUV. And I thought Chicago traffic was bad (About the worst in America is Chicago) but in the states we stay at our spot in the lane. No lane splitting to get ahead of just one more car. Around here that enough to make other drivers mad and we can’t have that while on a bike.

[@davidkeller2832]

Lane-splitting is legal in California.

[@rameezshaik3813]

Pre owned Vulcan 650 of 2018 model- 10k kms driven. What's the best price tag we can buy for?

[@ray_Manja]

Is it comfortable for 5' 5'' height

[@Tonys_Podium]

RAY 9:48

[@sparshad501]

Hi Bullubhai.... i often travel with my wife. Any long ride pillion review for the vulcan?

[@smalltownguy7890]

Sir truly practical vloging 👍

[@ankurcannonnn]

@bulubiker please tell me will its low ground clearance be too much of a problem during long rides in India like to Himachal and Ladakh

[@daynmitchell7543]

When he took the helmet off in slow motion I came.

[@TheOrangeRascal]

Good for you sir 🤣🤣

[@absonyte3647]

Hi sir , the competitior for this bike would be the Street Rod :D Not street 750

[@vishvlogs2948]

Bulu bhai u r an inspiration to all the youtubers, no matter what others say keep doing what you love.

[@nishanthmadhusoodhanan5393]

bulu bhai superb video man... quiet useful points highlighted...well done brwoi...

[@MotoVikz]

Very comprehensive review Bulu Biker! I test rode the Ninja 300, 650 and Vulcan (through Rideventure Bangalore) although i have always been a fan of cruisers. I am now in a fix as to which one to buy. I work in MG road and I don't have a big commute...around 12 kms from around JPnagar...so traffic wise it is very very manageable. Main reason for confusion is the ground clearance, maneuverability of the bike in traffic (I couldn't do a big test ride...it was a very short one on langford road and some gullies). How maneuverable is this in the city? Also how much of a problem is the ground clearance if you are riding with some baggage or even a pillion. Please help me decide ...I'm itching to buy this bike. But I'm sure you understand my predicament.

[@sandypan777]

What did you buy?

[@Me.anything]

How is the pillion comfort? And can we go on long drive or can touring can be done on this bike?

[@rohanpadale]

thank you bhai.. this really really helped alot.. solved my biggest dilema.. thank you so much 👍👍👍👍 also would love to see the comparision video btwn the harley and the kawi..!! 🙂😀

[@Being_awesomely]

I did take test ride of this cruiser. I loved it & want to buy it soon.. The only hitch I’ve is the ground clearance. @130mm it will surly scrape the humps in the city. Is there a riding technique to help it not scrape or how damage it can do if it scrapes regularly? Is there any other realistic solution for this concern?

[@divyanshushukla29]

How about heating in street rod?

[@biswaranjannisank7407]

So bulu bhai what will be your pick...??? Harley Davidson 750 or Kawasaki Vulcan S plzzz share your opinion...

[@abhisekkundu1489]

Is this full black colour available in India? In 2022 ?

[@faruqueakhtar2146]

Sir is it advisable for small town ownership, I am concerned about maintenance. Bikes like these don't require parts replacement frequently but does it require maintenance from system control or it can be done manually like any other bike.

[@skrashidali]

dont they have ergonomics fit?

[@MunsKi]

the intro is more than enough . i want to buy it

[@RobertBrumley60]

Too late, I already bought a Kawasaki Vulcan 903.

[@reyanshdas1071]

What is the milage for Valcan and Versys in city & highway? What is distance coveted on one full tank for both bikes??

[@amitmaharana3167]

Bhai CBR 650f par ek video dalo. 650 cc ke ander kounsa bike sahi hoga. CBR 650f ya ninja 650 or beneli 600i. Plz suggest me.

[@Jalalikijourney]

Sir can I put a exhaust in vulcan s..... Is it good or bad for bike? Kindly suggest some....

[@nkeshava8361]

Thanks for the review. My friend found it very useful as I said. I think I missed a chance to ride this bike🤦🏻‍♂️

[@RajRideStories]

hahaah....Bulu bhai I liked that Chappal part...u rightly mentioned the apology as few may comment here ki Bulu bhai aapne shoe nahi pehna hai :D :D D:

[@BuluBiker]

+Raj RideStories arey haan yaar... People usually comment even if the whole video is good still a small thing is wrong ppl comment about it...

[@pankajbhagat7693]

i own an Avenger that too with a top box fitted at the rear end so i guess in my case, it wont be any problem with the length of bike. correcto ?

[@randomrider6928]

Hi @bulubiker Please try to make the comparison with the 2018 street 750. I honestly feel you have been comparing with prior street models. Eagerly waiting for the video 👍

[@shanmugamarumugam9762]

Simple and near complete review

[@melaniev-nt8gf]

Hello from Canada ! Very nice review. Do you know where i can buy those passenger grab handles ? I am desperatly looking for those for more than six months... thank you .

[@rohantripathi5452]

Bulu bhai, please make a compilation of good big city bikes like this one. I am not a cruiser guy and am planning on buying a big bike for daily usage. If you could please. Thanks.

[@paulfarrell5935]

Great review! Sub added!👍

[@peacefulman6672]

Very good and useful video. 👍👍

[@AnjankumarRatha]

Bhai what do you think about Apache RR 310 vs KTM RC 390/ Duke390 which one is better for the Indian road???

[@tapandebnath2453]

Right now I ride an avenger 220. Planning for vulcan s.

[@axeoulaxeloupi6441]

Where did you buy your passenger handles

[@sonamk301]

Axeoul Axeloupi that's available as stock in India

[@johnsnyder8686]

Yeah they are sweet

[@irfinity]

Awesome review! How is he mileage? More importantly, how is the driving range in full tank?

[@chow-raymhorpaak8322]

Am happy.... u r of my hight... ! N u ride afrika twin??? Amazing...waiting for Honda H'ness cb350 review..

[@a.k.mukherjee3873]

You never talked about lack of centre stand!

[@MegaRai2012]

Nice bike and information Bulu bhai .. I need some suggestions or can says expect opinions,like everyone i also has a dream for cruiser bike..and I has decided to go for kawasaki vulcan S. But the problem now is that,I am working abroad.but yes i visit India in between 4 to 5 months for the period of 8-10 days. So need the expert opinion. should I go for it? Because bike will be park for straight 4-5 months. Inputs and suggestions are welcome and helpful..

[@Vishal_Vicky]

Nice review Bulu bhai but now you got me confused between the Versys and Vulcan.

[@smartdrc1844]

Bulu Bhai you can say the same thing for Triumph street twin !

[@jedimaster4589]

Does it have heating issue in City traffic

[@rohitarupal1648]

Awesome review bulu bhai

[@rajeshpeter4772]

If I chose to buy a Harley I will never choose Street..coz it's not the true Harley...actual entry level Harley is iron 883... Not sure, have they dropped the price of Vulcan for 2020....it's under 6 lak I guess .....still a huge chuck of money for a bike for me....but this bike is an exceptional cruiser from Kawasaki....

[@wikiindiapartha]

can u plz suggest me a combination of sports n cruiser bike. budget 10L. height is 5.4

[@rakushree13]

here again i guess ...you from odisha or kolkatta..? any ways...nice & complete description.

[@deependrachhangani6]

Which superbikes best for city roads

[@biswaranjannisank7407]

Which is more peppy bike in throttle response....

[@drtchandrakantsatyavan9456]

Can I get a second hand/used? Vulcan s

[@vksoni89]

Bulu Ji, Can You Give a Comparison b/w RE Interceptor 650 vs Vulcan S 650 ?.... Why we go for Vulcan S 650 in spite of this 650 available in low budget...? Kindly Reply .

[@SouparnoRoyce]

though there's always a chance of getting the legs badly fried, but I guess StreetRod 750 packs a lot better engine than the Vulcan. Would like to hear words from you on it.

[@vedantpaliwal]

Souparno Royce its actually opposite... vtwin Harley engines are old tech compared to parallel twin superior japanese engine's.

[@SouparnoRoyce]

vedant paliwal maybe you're right, the engine in the Vulcan is quite refined due to DOHC, but as far as I reckon, A Harley is as simple as torquing a bolt, due to its less moving parts in the engine, belt drive and better brakes, it scores points in maintainability. The Japanese cruisers are all about their electronics and refinement, and maybe that's why Honda Rebel never made its way to India. Though the power figures are all same for both of them, but when it comes to easy serviceability and customisations according to the rider, I guess the Street Rod 750 score a couple of points more than the Vulcan. Anyway correct me if I'm wrong. 😊

[@aditya9600]

Souparno Royce street rod is all over the world considered as an awkward motorcycle. Taking a about vulcan 650 vs (hd 750s /iron883/48) The vulcan is any day better. Far better to live with. Though it has more parts , kawsaki is so good at putting two parts together that Harley can't even come close. The heating and dissipation is way better on a Kawasaki. After riding a Vulcan 650, Harleys feels like an impractical show off piece with potato sound.

[@adityaanand2315]

Bullu bhai if u are planing to go to ladakh then please let me know ...me and my brother living near mekhri circle sada siv nagar

[@siminhamza8529]

Nice video bulu bhai... Come on... Bulu bhai... Buy it... You liked it very much as I said the other day...😋

[@mansimarsinghchhatwal5646]

Bhai how much is the FUEL ECONOMY for this bike in normal city traffic and on long routes

[@biswaranjannisank7407]

Bhai.. mast T-shirt pindhicha 👌...

[@subhadip00]

Can you please arrange a coparission video with RE Super Meteor 650 and Kawasaki Vulcan S???

[@v8valiant68]

some people say that this bike is the little brother to the Indian Scout ? Maybe I don't know haven't tried a scout, I reckon Indian and Harley-Davidson should make 650cc cruiser like the Vulcan that way they could introduce more learner drivers, maybe there isn't a market for that, would be cool though, I do like the vulcan it's a good choice if you want a cruiser. Most reviews I've seen about the vulcan have been mostly positive.
