Is This Really The BEST Beginner Motorcycle? Kawasaki Vulcan S 650 - A Beginner's Review

[@tennwingman3350]

Hey Jackie, Nobodies first bike is their dream bike. As it should be comfort and confidence are the key to learning the skills needed. I thank you for taking us along on this journey of you learning to ride. I am cheering you on and hoping you stay safe. Have fun and keep up the good work.

[@JackiesMotoGarage]

Very true!! Gotta work your way up to your dream bike. I feel like at this point I wouldn't even know what my dream bike is because I'm still getting a feel for all the different types. Thanks for the support!! Ride safe!

[@joshuabonine3592]

Just came back into riding after 5ish years. Chose the Vulcan S over the Ninja 650 and Z 650. Started out on the Ninja 250 like so many. The Vulcan S is an amazing bike. Easy to handle, easy to customize, a decent forum following for help, very forgiving clutch and throttle system, and still able to keep up with many different styles of bikes. Kawi hit a sweet spot with this. I'm looking forward to modding out the bike and making it my own. She's everything I could have asked for.

[@flipeffect]

Love this review! My wife, being a first time rider canvassing for a bike found this review, she sat on this bike, and now next week we are picking it up thank you!

[@Mudpie321]

I'm considering this bike also, how does your wife like it so far?

[@BikeRider01]

I learned on a 2016 Vulcan S 650. Great bike, highly recommend it!

You’re doing great riding that beautiful bike. Since you and Jon promoted the Vulcan S I’m all in and I will buy my own as soon as I have got my license. Take care all of you and ride safe.

[@JackiesMotoGarage]

Thank you!! That's awesome! I think you will really enjoy it!

[@mrq1701]

I'm a 43 year old beginner... Complete beginner. I rode my bicycle well into my teen years and rode a dirt bike a few times 20 years ago. I bought a brand new Vulcan S and am riding on my private dirt road to get used to the clutch and throttle. I'm having a hard time with the throttle! It is touchy! I find myself accelerating when I do not want to. I also tend to spin the rear wheel at launch.

[@alderendon941]

Hey Jackie, I am 5, 6 tall and I have a Vulcan s to, Highly recommend you to go with Reduced Reach Ergo-fit, You will feel the difference, footpegs adjusted closer to body, Ergo fit reduce feet seat, and handlebar to, trust me, you will not regret. I love my vulcan. Cheers

[@JackiesMotoGarage]

I'll have to try this out!! Thank you for the tip and ride safe!

[@alderendon941]

You're welcome.🙂✌

[@badapple65]

I bought this bike new June 1st 2019 after 35 years off a bike. I’m turning 55 yrs old. I am 6’4” and football player BIG. This bike they customized for me with their “Ergo Fit” program. Of the 3 seat choices I got the one that puts my rear end far back. Then a long shifter rod and my forward shifting controls were moved way forward. The handlebars on the bike were correct. There are 2 choices I understand. They claim the bike can be set up for 5’4” to 6’2” like I said I’m a couple of inches over their max height. I’m very long legged but pretty normal height body. I’m very comfortable and the bike shifts so smooth. I’m a down shifter. Many people are not and they hold the clutch in and multiple clicks down to first and coast to a stop. I guess my many years of driving a semi truck has me run through the gears going up and coming down as I am approaching a stop. The Vulcan is available in some pretty great colors. Looks so good in quite a few of them. Black always looks great but then they have a flat green, a bright orange, I bought the retro looking “Storm Cloud blue”. I just love the bike I may keep it forever. Yes a great starter bike but decent enough to be my forever bike too.

[@jad21964]

Thank you. I am subscribing in an attempt to get my wife to ride. So I really love getting your perspective.

[@JackiesMotoGarage]

Thanks for the support!! Ride safe! We need more female riders!

[@mynamedoesntmatter9013]

As a newbie (and I mean NEEEEEWBIE), this made me a lot more comfortable with getting a Vulcan S. Now I'm stoked on it!

[@JackiesMotoGarage]

It is a PERFECT beginner bike!! Good luck, have fun, and be safe!

[@Zennof854]

So how does it feel? Im also thinking of getting this bike as my first bike, but after seating on it and feel the weight, i felt intimidated i started to think can i turn this? can i stop this from falling when i stop on a stop sign or passing pedestrian?

[@nicholascorbett4622]

@@Zennof854 it weighs just under 500lbs. I'm a small guy. 5'5 130 lbs. I currently have a Honda rebel 250 which is probably the best if not most popular beginners bike I love it but have quickly out grown it. The good thing is if you aren't very big. You can purchase a used rebel for about 1500$ and sell for around same price granted you don't beat it up or put a ton of miles. Motorcycle safety courses usually use them to train and I'd recommend a course near you. That being said I've been looking at the Vulcan s and I'm in love. I have just over a year experience on rebel and this is a perfect step up. A lot of people do get this as a first bike and either keep it forever or later regret getting rid of it. Either way it's a learned skill so practice is key. If you feel it really is too heavy start small. Safety course is usually around 300$ in most states so I would start there to see if the smaller bike is too small or it's something you would use for a lil while to gain confidence. Happy riding and always be safe.

[@Zennof854]

@@nicholascorbett4622 thx you nicholas, but i still wanna get it as my first bike. I know im being stubborn but i wanna learn with it, get use to the weight and familiarizing it. And ill be taking a motorcycle lesson soon

[@nicholascorbett4622]

@@Zennof854 I definitely wasn't selling you on something smaller. I think it's a great bike. I'm getting same myself. I got my rebel by pure chance so the Vulcan will be my first actual bike. A very wise decision.

[@TheHipClip]

If you don't know the exact specifications of a bike, take a look at the European website. The EU has tight regulations defining what dry and wet weight is and what the max horsepower is.

[@SL3315]

Very versatile bike. User friendly for starters and lots of fun for more experienced riders. Éxito!

[@JackiesMotoGarage]

Yes! Very versatile!! It's cool to see how both Jon and I can have a blast on it doing completely different things!

[@JohnnyShakes]

Your convidance really took a boost on that scoot. Your body language was way more relaxed. Tell Jon your keeping it till ya get more comfortable. Then conquer your Triumph.

[@JackiesMotoGarage]

Thank you!! I do feel so comfortable on that one! I hope we hold onto it for a while. I will definitely be practicing on it!

[@Curveball]

Hi, great review. I have a question though. My Wife is only 4.11'' so when you say it is adjustable for shorter people, can it accommodate someone my Wife's height? I know she would need mid-controls, but her issue will be touching the ground (even with tippy toeing it.)

[@_Meriwether]

I'm 5'4" and can flat-foot it. The Vulcan S's pegs are adjustable but they won't reach a position that can be considered "mid" controls. I'd recommend taking a trip to the dealer, and also looking at the Honda CMX300 or CMX500 Rebel - it too is great for shorter riders, has mid controls, and is very forgiving.

[@Curveball]

@@_Meriwether Thanks for the info.

[@DrMaiison]

She could also consider height increasing riding boots. The Daytona Lady Star is an example.

[@keenan368]

3rd gear!? I'm having so much fun watching you learn to ride. My bike is under a tarp and three inches of snow so I'm living my motorcycle fantasys through this channel. Msf asap though, dead ass.

[@JackiesMotoGarage]

Haha right!? 3rd gear! I'm so glad you're enjoying the channel! Hope you get to ride again soon! I will definitely be taking a course in the future and I'll drag Jon along, too!

[@sandiaquino8306]

Thank you for your video! I'm also a novice female rider and looking to purchase this bike. I have a Ninja 400 and love it. You helped me with my decision to buy one!!

[@codemonkey8811]

The Vulcan S was a weird bike to me. I special ordered it in from New Jersey without even a test ride, because something about it just spoke to me. Turned out to be a fantastic decision. It's slow and reliable when you need it, and can still absolutely rip through twisties, I honestly think it's the best of all worlds. Simple, forgiving, and has all the power you need on the road, plus the ergofit system + adjustable levers really puts it a step up over any close competition. I'm 6'3", and the fact that I can configure it to be comfortable for a 5'7" rider and then reconfigure it to be comfy for me is mind blowing. It even comes ABS. My only complaint is the small accessory load limit of 25W with the alternator, but most people won't encounter that unless you run heated grips.

[@Stamatos]

My first bike was my dream bike. Ninja 650. I still have it, I still love it. You'll never forget your first love. Keep the shiny side up and be safe out there!

[@JackiesMotoGarage]

I still remember mine, too!! It was a triumph Bonneville. We had it several years ago before I was serious about riding. I'll have to do a video about it sometime!

[@Stamatos]

@@JackiesMotoGarage Please do a video about it! The Bonneville T100 is my newest bike and I love it, look forward to hearing your thoughts.

Thank you for the video! I just got my license and am test driving one soon. This video really helped!

[@bikerbeliever8169]

This is mine and my wife's first bike. I've logged 3500 plus on it shes done about 20ish miles, plus lot of parking lot slow stuff. Both passed msf togeather through riding academy. She likes it but is still weary on confidence.

[@JackiesMotoGarage]

It's a great bike!! As you can see from the video, I think it's awesome and perfect for a beginner. I hope she can build her confidence!! Ride safe!

[@stylnprfyl]

My wife and I did the same thing Gut-Z-Guy. Took and passed MSF class together and then got both bikes together. She got the Pearl Lava Orange and I went with the Stormcloud Blue.

[@dansivertson]

Nice review! I admire your honesty.

[@specialed5098]

Jackie you do look much more relaxed and in control on the Kaw. I wouldn't even consider it a beginner bike. Years ago ( ok I'm old Haha) a big bike was a 750cc. Beginner bikes were 150cc /250cc. That Kawasaki is an intermediate and you are rocking it. Good job enjoy watching your progress.

[@hanszimmer4679]

I had this bike for a few month after a 20+ yr. break from riding to get back into it and ist was the best decision i ever made. I own and ride a 1.000cc Kawasaki Versys (and lovin´ it like crazy) now but the vulcan will always have a place in my heart :o)

[@spookyzooki1985]

I went to the dealer this past weekend to get new tires put on my Hayabusa. While waiting I did sit on one of these and I’ll say it felt very comfortable great seating position and was not overwhelmingly big or anything. I mean it really felt like a great first bike.

[@JackiesMotoGarage]

Thinking about trading in the Hayabusa for a Vulcan S? 😉 Kidding of course! They are extremely comfortable!!

[@spookyzooki1985]

Jackie's Moto Garage oh nooo! Lol you is funny! No but I did like the Vulcan S.

[@BikesBoatsBivouacs]

Building that confidence.

[@JackiesMotoGarage]

[@TheDeterminedFisherman]

I totally agree that the Vulcan S is a perfect beginner bike as it is also my first bike ever. Never thought I'd be a moto vlogger myself, but tada!!! All because I wanted to record my progress from day one of my riding experience.😅 ⚠️RIDE SAFE⚠️ 😎🤙

[@allenarneson4349]

Great video with direct talk about your feelings, impressions and experiences. I'm really thinking of purchasing a Vulcan -S here in Michigan. Dealer has a tremendous deal on an ABS version for $5,600. I rode years ago in Calif, before the daughters and move to Michigan. Last bike was a 1982 Honda Goldwing Interstate. Sold it in 1985 so I could purchase a boat. So... kids are gone, I'm retired and looking for something to rekindle those long lost feelings. Thanks again for your video!!

[@davidelizabeth4933]

Definitely one we wouldn't have considered as a possible good beginner bike. Thank you both for enlightening us! 💡🤯.....😀 👨‍👩‍👧 ❤ -David, Elizabeth, and little Jessica

I never would have thought it was either until Jon convinced me to give it a try!! Thanks for checking out my video!

[@treier1589]

I just started riding last year. Bought one new off the floor 0 miles. I wanted a new bike to grow with. Without inheriting someone elses issues. Absolutly love the bike. Dont regret it at all.

[@JackiesMotoGarage]

Love that!! It is an awesome bike and you can definitely grow with it. Ride safe!!

[@sathishrao7926]

Looks like you’ve set your Ergo fit settings at ‘Mid Reach’ ? For someone who’s 5’5”, ‘Low Reach’ is the best setting.

[@JackiesMotoGarage]

I'll have to look into that! Thank you!

[@MajorHazzard]

I agree with Sathish.IMHO It looks (to me) like you are too stretched out i,e you need the ergo seat that moves you forward, and the ergo footpegs on the back position. Once that was done, then you sould tell if the handlebars (the reach) needed changing.But, an excellent video and thank you for sharing- it brought back memories of when I started in 1967 on a BSA C15 250cc.- ie. sort of scary at first, but fun and after a while, you build up confidence and become more experienced, and that stays with you. Just in case your'e wondering, yes this old timer is still riding- currently a Kawasaki z1000sx, with a rack on the back- for my zimmer or walking frame :)

[@Yamahog]

@@MajorHazzard Yep. a reduced-reach Seat for sure .... Jackie was leaning too much forward to do long rides on that bike

[@macdaddy.cycles2289]

Jackie you just can't go wrong with that bike it's a great first bike and its very forgiving and it's great in corners and going fast ! Great low end torque .

[@JackiesMotoGarage]

It amazes me every time how forgiving it is! Its It's absolutely perfect for me to practice on. Love it!

[@Fatyaqui]

This Vulcan S, looks good on you. If I'm correct, I think that they have a Cafe model of this Vulcan S. I've seen one before unless it was modified to look that way. I really like that bike. I am on a Vulcan 900 custom so getting a Vulcan S is not far fetched for me but it would be a kind of downgrade for me. Although I am a very short gentleman, I probably be more comfortable on the Vulcan S. Thank you for sharing and keep up the great work.

[@JackiesMotoGarage]

I'll have to do some research to see if I can find one like that!! That would be the best of both worlds. Thank you for the support and ride safe!

[@douglasdrumond]

Indeed there is a Vulcan S Cafe.

[@Yamahog]

What I liked about the Vulcan S, (V-S),i s the grip size, Jackie. Awesome size for handling in turns, You won't find that on the Vulcan 900, or the Yamaha Bolt, but you will find it on the Viragos and most smaller Hondas, like the Rebels... Comparing my Bolt,... stock build,; ( tech to tech: speed range is dang close to the V-S , except for the gear ratio....107 mph at rev-limit..... and the Bolt pulls 59.3 ft-lbs at 3,000 straight thru to 5780 rpm, over 5 gears, the V-S needs 6 shift ranges. The Torque curve is different on the V-S 650 Ninja ..... peaks around 5,350 through to the 7950 rpm limiter range, according to a local electrician i know that owns one.) Long story short. The electrician said to me that " Once the V-S is up near 5,500 rpm's , then it goes like snot, acceleration-wise. The Bolt does that from a ,measely 3,000 rpm in any gear. Bolt is 547 lb's wet..... similar to the HD 883 you rode, but with a 38 degree lean both sides..... no peg drags ....:) Am still waiting for Jon to get you on a Yamaha Bolt to test ride, you will love it...... seriously ! Stay safe and Ride on ! W

[@battletoads22]

I want that bike! And not just the Vulcan S, but one in red.

[@gasman6922]

If you want to try mid reach controls the linkages aren’t that expensive at your Kawasaki dealer. Easy to install. Mid reach might fit you a bit better. Each of the 2 steps bring them about an inch closer. The mid and reduced reach seat are where the cost is.

[@JackiesMotoGarage]

I am curious to see how that would feel! Thanks for the tip!

[@gasman6922]

If you undo the linkage you can just move the peg back. You won’t be able to ride without the new linkage but you could kind of get the idea. My wife is 5’10 and she finds the extended reach a bit stretched out, but she has short legs fo4 her height.

They were used, at a good price, so if I found one like that when I'm ready I may have to check it out. Oh and tell him this is your bike! He can get one too if he wants one! And as far as the Vulcan S goes, the only thing I really don't like is that it's butt ugly. Sorry, but if everything else is right, you can get over the ugly. P.S.
