If only Kawasaki offered aftermarket parts like HD and also the infotainment upgraded this would be a hands down winner

[@12yearssober]

That is my only complaint about the metric bikes. I own an Ultra Limited. If the metrics had the aftermarket options like Harley I would go with them. The round saddlebags are due for an upgrade as well.

[@Ozmandius]

infotainment is a good feature to say you have that feature. but truth is when you're riding, you're not staring at anything. hook bluetooth up , start the music, and roll. if you need to see a gps, mount it to the handlebars. no stock or aftermarket gps does as well (in areas where you get at least an intermittent cell signal) as google maps/waze. And as far as aftermarket parts. ... why pay 70% more for a bike just so you have the option of spending even more on it? this bike has a few factory optional parts available, and third party aftermarket is there... what more could you honestly want for your bike?

I had the 2000 Vulcan Classic, best bike I ever owned and after 65 years of experience it would be my last so I'm so glad I went out on a high note. Rode it as both solo and sidecar tug, more often in the latter mode since my wife is a nurse and I had to take her all over Brooklyn, Queens and NYC to visit patients. We used to call it our Bentley because it was such a high quality comfortable ride yet had a surprising agility and power. Kawasaki lets the good times roll, love their bikes.

[@garrettsmith8286]

How many miles did you get on that thing? I've never had a Harley but have had many Kawasaki's. Almost tempted to try a Harley but not too sure it's worth the money and time.

[@chrism796]

I have an 2019 Voyager with an Ivanized ECU. That tune unleashes hell within those 2 cylinders! I love it. Like other owners I went bang for buck and my Kawasaki has not disappointed. Recently, I’ve experienced going down the road and the bike just shuts down. Gotta turn everything off and turn all switches back on and it will restart. Don’t know if it’s an ignition problem or a clogged fuel line. Other than the fact it happens randomly I just don’t know. Thoughts? I’m due for a service and may have to take in early with this random shut down issue

[@justingarnick6021]

I gotta say. I really enjoy ur videos. The feel real to me. Good information from a “regular person” perspective. Keep it up. Would love to se an SV650/1000 review. Just saying.

[@kovuk9]

Just an FYI, the K ACT and the Anti-lock breaks are actually 2 different things. Anti-lock breaks are just that, they prevent you from locking up the breaks in an emergency stopping situation as where the K ACT on the bike actually and automatically activates both front and rear brakes at speeds over (I believe 35 mph) no matter which break is activated, meaning that both breaks are given the appropriate amount of breaking stopping power as they should have and it is all computer controlled. Not to much front break and not to much back break.

[@daniellivers5538]

Just a question for you I have a 2014 vaquero I bought new love everything about it except the seat I put a Corbin seat on it hated it preferred the stock over it now I have a Mustang seat on it better than the stock but after a couple hours I'm hurting is the Voyager seat any better I have been considering buying a 2016 Road Glide Ultra just for the fact it seems so much more comfortable for long rides and I do a lot of long ride what is your opinion I know you have rode all three of them

[@thomaspike1475]

How does the Voyager corner compared to the new Goldwing? Does it drag floor boards much sooner?

[@Patriotsoul]

Sean can you please do a review of the new Yamaha Star Venture Transcontinental? I’ve been hearing really good things about them and would like your take!

[@ChaohsiangChen]

Why I don't see more of these at my local dealership and craigslist is a mystery to me. Vaquero is simply the tourer of highest CP value in the market.

[@fastj1962]

Thats a great bike. Not really my style, but pretty cool Its awesome that Kawasaki opened up a plant in Nebraska to make american style bikes that crush Harley. Harley has totally blown it.

[@matthewfranks9068]

Yep, in Lincoln, Nebraska. Not sure when it was built but I know I've driven past it for a long time. Its definitely not a new plant.

[@GixxerFoo]

I sold many Vulcans to people in the market for Harleys. That's why we always put our dealer customized Vulcans out front so people could see them driving by. Many stopped in thinking they were used Harleys. My dad actually saw the new Voyager and mistook it for a Harley, lol he sold Kawasaki for 30 years. The sound on the 1500cc Kawasaki was very very close to the EVO.

[@flashbodie1]

Harley-Davidson is the most efficient machine at turning fuel into noise without the pesky side effect of horsepower.

[@chriscreed6410]

Hahaha. Yea, I just got my first Harley. And honestly I'm loving it. Still got my GSXR, Virago, and VTX. But Harley is a style thing. I don't understand the guys that supercharge a Harley.

[@alexmilne2842]

@Rick Simpson i agree ... they are very very cool bikes , but depends on the power you want . my honda will demolish any harley in 3rd gear , cruise in comfort at 100 mph for 200 miles + on 1 tank of fuel , and that`s just my old blackbird ... its classed as a tourer , and i very much doubt that harley is the 1`st choice tourer worldwide .

[@ronaldwhite5670]

I’ve got one. It’s a solid bit of iron. On the negative side.....it’s not a hot weather bike, real heat cooks ya nuts, real tight corners at speed require very good skills. On the positive side, this bike is super safe. Ride to the conditions and your skills, you’ll have THE best riding experience. Cold weather, I’ve ridden behind trucks to avoid ice, shut the vents, I was warmish, solid on the road, completely protected from the elements. Plenty of gear space, all lockable. Good conditions.....sit back, cruise control, music, 360 klm to a tank, fill up when ya arse gets sore. Watch the view, no adds. Beautiful!!!!!

[@theramblingsoflarry9290]

[@joojr2779]

I like this editing better. Mixing the overview with the test ride trickling throughout. Makes me want to watch the whole thing and covers the bases.

[@dalecarpenter8828]

Harley is doing that themselves ! The price for no real reason is their main deal breaker ! They just are not worth th he money ! It's like put harley on it double the price !

[@sethoquinn6172]

Not hardly double the price. This bike would be comparable to a Road Glide Ultra. Which is what I traded my Voyager for. The price difference is about $10k. For that $$ you get everything the Voyager has plus Navigation, better lean angle, 2 more speakers, better fit and finish etc. It’s all in what you want or can afford. The Voyager is an awesome bike. I loved mine. But the HD is better in every way and you have to pay for that.

[@MrNegative57]

Honda and Kawasaki are 1,000 times bigger than Harley. Harley Davidson makes motorcycles. 5th in reliability ahead of BMW, Triumph, Ducati yes more reliable than a BMW .

[@jeffkeni]

Well, you have to consider the MoCo has to pay those union wages AND make a profit. When somebody pays a premium price for a HD, they're supporting good paying American jobs and an American company.

[@Wolvesmoto]

As somebody who has had the ol kawi and honda gold wing and currently a streetglide special I love them all, but my harley definitely turns heads and sounds better and has way more power and confort than the kawi and my goldwing, the goldwing f6b I had was the fastest stock though.

[@WoodyRides]

Just because you don’t approve of the price of Harley’s doesn’t mean it’s not worth it. I will pay more for Made In America every time.

[@sethoquinn6172]

That was worldwide numbers sorry. But in the 601+cc market in the US for 2018 Harley has 51.1%. Which means in the market they compete in, they sold more than ALL other brands combined. You can’t compare 50cc dirt bikes sales to Ultra Classic sales. Of course Honda sales more bikes. But a lot of those are dirt bikes or 600cc or under.

[@ianstradian]

The seat height on a Softail Deuce is 2” to 3” closer to the center of gravity on that bike than any other Softail. It’s a leverage thing. Add 3” to a socket wrench and you get a lot more leverage, the same with lifting a bike off its stand.

Question. Can you get that windshield from Kawasaki? Having a hard time finding aftermarket. Had something from Kawasaki to buy stuff for a discount when I bought the bike, I misplaced it. Tempted on the windshield for my wife's benefit riding passenger. I have a brand new 21' Vaquero and some things seem to be similar on both bikes. Almost rather go direct from Kawasaki vs. my dealer, as I think they're trying to screw me sometimes. Not surprised, just bummed.

[@shotgunscott]

I'm sure for the price difference, I could change out the cluster and dash. It looks like it came off a '68 Oldsmobile. I own a Harley, but I'll never on an air cooled bike, especially out west. Too hot and lots of elevation changes, that require more horsepower than a '69 VW bug.

The thing to remember is this. You can drive a Yugo or a Mercedes. You are still going the same speed on the road. You will get there in the same time. A car is a car. A motorcycle is a motorcycle. Does one have more bells and whistles? Sure. But it is still just a car that will depreciate two minutes after you leave the lot. You can lose ten grand out of the chute or a grand, it's up to you. For me, it's just a mode of transportation.

I absolutely loved that bike and to this day it's still the best all round bike I've owned in 40+ years of riding. I loved that bike so much that I'll likely will own another. When I heard that Kawasaki was bringing back the Voyager, (they introduced it in 1988 and kept selling t he same bike till 2003), I couldn't wait. When it was announced it was going to be a V-twin, I was so disappointed. I don't understand why Kawasaki thinks they can out Harley. All the metric cruiser together don't add up to the bikes the Motor company sells. And, I'm a dyed in the wool Kawasaki man.

[@justinneill5003]

Nice, but I would still choose my M109R every time. It has less gadgets (and sadly no ABS) but it’s more edgy looking, has more power, and it also has all that comfort and unexpected manoeuvrability for an 1800cc bike that weighs nearly 900 lbs. I guess it’s more more of a cruiser-muscle bike crossover with some sport bike technology built in. And it’s more refined, more reliable, faster and better value than any Harley. If I was going for a bike of a similar genre from a “heritage” brand, it would be the Rocket 3 (Triumph were making bikes before even HD) in fact I almost dud but the slight difference in seat height turned me off. I am 5’8” and didn’t want to be balancing nearly 900 lbs on my toes at the lights!

[@SGTJDerek]

The only thing I never understood is why they didn't use the 2K Engine vs the 1700. Unless it's because of the natural progression from the Nomad line. Never understood why the Nomad never had the 2K either. I know the 2K is almost impossible to find.

They aren’t a bad bike. Especially for the price. But I traded mine for a H-D Road Glide Ultra In 2018 and it’s no comparison. The HD is way better. But at $10k more. So if money is an issue the Kawasaki is the choice. But if you can afford it, the H-D is better in my opinion.

The only thing I dislike about my Kawi, 900 LT, is the Rake & Trail. Makes it harder to maneuver at low or walking speed. I can sling my Pop's Heritage around like it's nothing even though they are very close to the same weight. Same with my friends SG. and that thing is over 100lbs heavier.

I heard Kawasaki and Harley Davidson are pretty cozy.

[@NoShadowOfDoubt1]

K bought HD back in 2014

I miss my Harley clunk when I shift gears. .... maybe not.

[@fishstick341]

Why make valves so hard to adjust

[@SGTJDerek]

Explain please.

[@poorasslawstudent]

Had the Vaquero, put 20,000 miles on it. No complaints. I wanted a bike that had enough power, cruise, radio, comfort. Only reason I got rid of it was I became a father ans wasn't doing long trips anymore.

[@poorasslawstudent]

Actually couple small complaints on the vaquero. Tank could have held more gas, and I didn't care for the side opening hard bags, I would have preferred top opening.

Everyone knows the Goldwing is the king of touring!

[@myahmedfadel521]

Jared, you’re right!✊👍 Agreed.

[@cliffordb47]

Jared I have a 2007 Gold wing with 87,000 miles zero mechanical problems just five sets of tires one windshield lots of oil changes that's it and a couple of batteries

[@JD-sd1hl]

Thanks, captain obvious!

[@vulcanizer44]

nice bike but i am finding the big weight an issue, at 795 lbs I can't handle that anymore, I am downsizing to the 500 lbs or less category bikes, my 2005 vulcan 800 is ok for me but the most fun I have is on my 125 cc yamaha scooter, but the only negative is I am developing bad habits on the scooter that doing same on that 795 lb Kawasaki would get me killed

[@roberttosa2560]

Nice bike.

[@teddyvanhalen814]

I grew up on Japanese bikes but I still haven’t found a Japanese cruiser, bagger or tourer that I would pick over a Harley.
