Kawasaki Vulcan Vaquero Review

I was asked to do a review of the Vaquero. These are just my opinions on this motorcycle.

[@davidjoaquin141]

I test road a lot of baggers in 2015, I was leaning toward a new Road Glide (test road it 4 times!) until I road the Vaquero at my Honda/Kawasaki dealer in NH. Ended up trading my 98 Shadow 1100 with 86K miles and bought a 2014 with 1700 miles on it. You are correct, at the price I paid for mine with my trade in I Could have bought 3. My decision really wasn't based on cost, because I've always owned Japanese bikes, I just think they're bullet proof. I'm water cooled guy, my 5 bro's all have HD's and when we're in traffic, they're shutting them down. But I respect them, they have the power no doubt, but when we stop and take a break, most riders come check out my burnt orange Vaquero and it pisses my Bro's right the fuck off. Of course I rub it in a little. Thanks for the review, great minds think alike!

[@GoofyBastard]

I’m glad that you’re as happy with yours as I am with mine. That’s one thing that is great about or bikes....there really aren’t a lot out there and it’s something that’s different in a sea of HD’s. Just wishing there was the aftermarket support....the biggest downfall in my humble opinion. Thanks for watching and stay safe!!

[@ghostmost2614]

😂 I just finished a 2 week ride with a Harley buddy. Everyone was gawking at my 2016 Vaq and not his low rider. He tried to play it off.

[@sdefiel3719]

I'm a Harley fan boy now, but on my travels to this exalted height I owned a 2011 Vaquero and loved it. It's a darn good ride. The things that are missing from it compared to a $30,000 bike aren't important. If money is important you will be happy with it. Heck, if money isn't important, it's still a great choice. Good vid, S

[@GoofyBastard]

Thanks for watching I appreciate it!!! I was never really into the Harleys so I am good with the bike I have. All the extra money I have is just a bonus....thanks again!!

[@JB-kg7ic]

Bro, that was one the best bike reviews of ANY BIKE that I've seen in recent memory. Very thorough and you cover the points that matter to the everyday rider - like the bike running hot and how that can be helped. Good stuff man. 👏🏽

[@GoofyBastard]

Thanks so much for all the kind words about this video, I really appreciate it!!!! Thanks for watching and stay safe

[@shaunejones3572]

I have a 2018 Vaquero and actually took my ECU to Ivan (he lives in the city my wife is from). Fixed everything! No more heat. No more popping (backfires). Better fuel economy. Pulls much better (throttle response). He customizes the flash based on any other customs you have (pipes, air intake/filter). He also updates flashes for free if he changes anything. I absolutely love my bike!

[@GoofyBastard]

Thanks for watching!!! I wish he was close to me like that...it would make it so much more convenient. I have been hesitant about doing it cause I believe when I unhook battery I will lose the program on the PAC for the handlebar controls and then will have to take the fairing off and reprogram it. But I know I need to do it. Stay safe!!

[@shaunejones3572]

@@GoofyBastard he’s quick. If you ship it to him, he’ll reprogram it and get it back out the same day. I literally drove to his shop (from Virginia), handed it to him, and he handed it back in 10 minutes. I completely understand about the concern about your other device. It’s definitely worth the effort though!

[@GoofyBastard]

I believe that it’s worth it. I have heard probably about 98% positive reviews from it. I will definitely be doing it before the riding season really kicks up!!! Thanks again

[@danpetreikis]

I just picked up a very clean '14 Voyager. Love it! Would really like to see Kawasaki do a long-overdue update to this bike - nothing too extensive, just add a bit more power, offer a better audio system, maybe LED headlight and built-in nav/bluetooth. They should consult with Ivan regarding remapping their ECUs from the factory, honestly.

[@GoofyBastard]

Congratulations on the new(to you) bike!! I agree with you 💯! They really need to do a refresh on this bike. I mean at least offer a Bluetooth radio…everyone has Bluetooth! I think they have to adhere to EPA standards and that’s why the bike is so anemic from the factory. Thanks for watching, stay safe and enjoy the hell outta that bike!!

[@danpetreikis]

@@GoofyBastard 100% sure the performance issues are directly related to EPA issues, sadly. Can't believe how much under-the-radar these bikes are.

[@GoofyBastard]

@@danpetreikis I think that if Kawasaki would push them a little more, they would be more on the radar but TBH I kinda like the fact ya don’t see them all over the place

[@tripsmytrigger7090]

Thanks brother! Getting older here and looking to move away from naked biked to a bagger. The Vaquero caught my eye ... damn good looking bike. Like the HD's, but I'm over the culture and price, looking for value and solid bike. Appreciate the review!

[@GoofyBastard]

Thanks for watching. I was asked to do a more in depth walk around for this bike. I will be shooting it soon so stayed tuned!! Thanks for watching and stay

[@1satisfiedmind]

Bought my 2005 Meanstreak in 2007, w 1900 mls...still running strong. The only Kaw Cruiser that does it all. That said, there are some gorgeous custom Vaqueros out there. Yeah, not a lot you can do other than intake, exhaust, and fuel management...but....the ecu can be flashed, and they swear by that Ivan Flash. The Meanstreak had the Thunder Big Bore Kit (Cams, Pistons), that gave the Meanie 100 h/p. If they offered that for Vaqueros, it would sell.

[@GoofyBastard]

Thanks for watching. I would love to see a Vaquero with that kinda power. Would definitely sell!!! I had a 2006 Meanie I bout new and sadly had to get rid of it when I got the Vaquero...not enough room in the shed, or I’d still have it!!

[@DJGENOTYPE]

I loved my 2011. I upgraded the headlights, speakers, pipes, and Ivan’s tune. By 2018 I started to look at getting a new bike so I went with the 2018 Yamaha Eluder. If they had upgraded the Vaquero, I probably would have stayed. But the Vaquero ran flawlessly during my ownership. The only thing that I needed changing was tired and rear wheel bearings. Very reliable bike.

[@GoofyBastard]

They are really good bikes…..in dire need of a upgrade/refresh though. I love my Vaquero but if they don’t do something before it’s fine for me to trade in, I am honestly thinking Indian. Thanks so much for watching and I hope you are enjoying the Eluder…looks like a killer bike!!

[@DJGENOTYPE]

@@GoofyBastard I just sold my Eluder and ordered the new Indian Pursuit.

[@GoofyBastard]

@@DJGENOTYPE the Indian Pursuit is one sweet bike. I would prefer just a Challenger if I was going that route, but that’s me. Good luck with the bike when you get it!!

[@DJGENOTYPE]

@@GoofyBastard Yeah, I considered just getting the Challenger Elite and just add lower fairings and a sissy bar. But I figured I could be more bang for my buck if I just got the pursuit that already hade the fairing and the trunk. I can always detach the trunk for short rides.

I bought a 2020 Vulcan 900 as my first bike, but as I walked in the dealership, the first bike I saw was the 2020 blue Vaquero. Beautiful bike and comfortable. You get so much for you money. It may be my next bike down the road. By the way, LOVE the Z-Bars

[@GoofyBastard]

[@buddywilson104]

Good video. I've had my 2018 for 2 years now and I love it. I had Ivan flash the ECU and put Freedom Performance 2-1 pipe on it. Different bike with the mods. Not power necessarily, but just smoothed everything out and runs cooler. So much better. And the pipe sounds awesome.

[@GoofyBastard]

Michael Walker thanks so much for watching I appreciate it. My plan for the off season is Ivan’s....I’m hoping for a mild winter but if we don’t have one the bike will benefit from it.

[@logancook9065]

How hard is it to do Ivan’s tune I’m looking into a new 2022 but a factor is having to do this and how much it would cost after paying 18k for a new bike

[@buddywilson104]

@@logancook9065 It's not hard. You just have to take the ECU off the bike and ship it to Ivan. He reprograms it and ships it back. You reinstall it. Easy. The cost when I had mine done was around $400. Well worth it.

[@SteelHorseTexasTwangExchange]

I’ve sat on the Vaquero several times at some dealers and the Dallas motorcycle show. I love the feel and balance. If I ever buy another bagger it’s the first thing I’m looking at. And I’m totally with you about the price point.

Hey great vid . I have a 2019 and i love it ! I did the Ivans tune and i am just amazed at the difference that it made ! I also did a K&N filter and Cobra Tri flo slip ons . I would recommend the flash for sure it wakes the bike up quite nicely ,the decel popping has been reduced by 95 percent and the fan comes on sooner so the bike runs cooler . Cheers .

[@GoofyBastard]

Brad Becker thanks so much for watching and for leaving a comment. My plan for the off season is to do the flash and I’m not exactly sure why it has taken me so long to do it. Everything I have heard about it has been nothing but positive. I love the Tri-flos, I was very happy with them. Stay safe and once and again thanks for watching!!

[@JohnDoeSmith08]

Had my 2011 Ivan tuned. Totally different (for the better) bike. What I also found out is any slop in the throttle grip will cause low speed jerkiness. I took a piece of zip tie between throttle and handle bar and now all is perfect now!

[@timothysmith1154]

I agree with what you’re saying about it being outdated but it sure does ride well and you can’t beat the price.

[@GoofyBastard]

Best bang for the buck in my opinion. And honestly it could still be even if the upgraded the bike a little. I mean, how much more cost to Kawasaki would it be if the pit in a Bluetooth radio?? Thanks for watching and stay safe

[@WaltInPA]

It’s unfortunate that there isn’t much aftermarket support but it sounds like the price difference helps make up for it a bit. Nice bike 👍

[@GoofyBastard]

Walt In PA thank you. The price of the bike definitely makes up for it but sometimes it would be nice to be able to do some mods that were just plug and play.

[@MoxieMike66]

I have ridden a 79' KZ 1000 ST for most of my riding "career". This bike was my first "bagger", mainly for the price, as everyone else cost thousands more. I'm 5'7" and I can ride it way better than my 79' GL1000 I had. My KZ was the fastest production bike of it's year and I could drag the pegs. For the price, I'm happy w/the bike, and there are options out there for it, but you have to look.

[@GoofyBastard]

The KZ 1000ST was a nice bike!! Loved those things!! The Vaquero surprisingly is a great handling motorcycle. It shocked me that it handles as well as it does. Bang for the buck you really can’t beat it at all!! You really need to search to find aftermarket goodies for it. I found a lot of things on the Facebook groups. Thanks for watching and stay safe

I'm currently looking at a 2016 Vaquero with 200 miles for 10k. Yes, 200 miles. Anyone with any thoughts? I'll be coming from a CBR900. It'll be a complete 180 for me. I wonder why the owner only drove for such a short distance? Do you guys think it's worth a three hour (one way) trip to see it?

[@GoofyBastard]

There are people out there that buy bikes and never really ride them, so it’s not out of the realm of possibilities. I would see if he has done any upgrades to the bike, things that you would be interested in. The Vaquero is a great bike. Definitely a far jump from a CBR900. But if it’s something you’re interested in, I don’t see why going that far for a bike is a problem. Thanks for watching

@GoofyBastard as far as I know from speaking with the guy on the phone, he has a set of Freedom pipes he had put on at the dealer. He said it's been garage kept since day one.

Thanks for the video. I had a ‘17 Vaquero and only got to put 1k miles on it before I lost out in the divorce. Was about ready to send my sht to Ivan. I heard nothing but good things. Especially if you plan on upgrading the exhaust ( which I had already ordered but never had a chance to put them on). Looking into getting another Vaquero this video really made me miss my old one. Really good bike! Especially for the money.

Dude that sucks you lost out with it in the divorce. Hopefully soon you’ll be able to get back on another one. I still haven’t gotten the tune done yet.

I personally like the fact that the bike hasn’t changed. Kawasaki in my opinion is the only Japanese motorcycle co that still makes good looking bikes. Currently Honda and Yamaha do not make any bikes that aren’t butt ugly. Harley sticks pretty much to the classic bike designs with some modern flair. Maybe that’s why they still sell so well. But I’m old school, I still miss the CD players on the Electra glides.

Great Review and your bike looks amazing! I was wondering how difficult it was to replace the radio and the handlebars, and do you think it was worth it?

So first off, both mods were definitely worth it. So difficulty level, I would say the radio was more difficult but that’s only cause of the wiring you have to do along with it. I suck at soldering so. The handlebars were so much easier than I had expected them to be. It would be easier if you had an extra set of hands to help a little but I did it by myself.

[@GoofyBastard]

You’re absolutely correct…it would add cost to the bike but I think a lot of people would be willing to pay a little more for something like a Bluetooth radio. Ya figure people spend hundreds if not thousands to upgrade audio on these bikes. Thanks for watching and stay safe

[@trekbsg]

I agree that the Vaquero is a good value for the budget minded touring enthusiast but to say you can buy two Vaqueros for the price of one new Road Glide isn't factual, you might be able to buy two "used" Vaqueros for the price of one "new" Road Glide but that's not quite an apple to apple comparison, the '22 Vaquero's msrp is $17,599 and the '22 Road Glide's msrp is $22,249, a $4,650 difference.

[@GoofyBastard]

You are correct if you are looking at MSRP, but actual paid prices are a different thing. Vaqueros historically sell for below MSRP where Harleys do not and they typically sell above MSRP. So that being the case one can make the argument I made. And yes…saying what I said may have been an exaggeration but it’s not really that far off. Thanks for watching and commenting…I appreciate it!!!

[@trekbsg]

@@GoofyBastard Not sure what dealerships in your area are charging but I've been buying motorcycles(both metrics & Harleys) for almost 40 years and the only time I've ever seen any new bike sold for less than msrp is for left over stock(& usually only a few hundred $ off) and the only times I've seen Harleys being charged for more than msrp(not including for add-ons & customizations) is when there's greater demand than there are supplies and that hasn't happened in a couple of decades.

[@GoofyBastard]

@@trekbsg I did buy mine in 2017 as a leftover 2016. The bike was still in the crate and I got the bike for $12,500. Again I say I might have exaggerated a little but 2 of my bikes are $25,000 so it’s really not that far off from 2 Roadglides. Again, thanks for watching and commenting. Stay safe

Hey man, Have to say that your review on this bike has all of the pros and cons that I have noticed with my 2018 Vaquero, especially the heat and power. I live in Ottawa Canada and in the middle of summer this is a awful bike to be caught in a traffic jam. You mentioned ivanizing the ECU, well I have being reading about this and was so impressed with the reviews that I sent mine off to Ivan's 2 weeks ago and 10 days later it was back home. I have 2 months to go before I can try it out and looking sooo forward to do some sort of review on the ECU. P.S. did you ever get yours done. Nice bike, Ride safe.

[@GoofyBastard]

Unfortunately I haven’t gotten mine done yet….not exactly sure why I have been procrastinating on doing it. These bikes are the best bang for the buck in my opinion. I do wish there was more aftermarket support for them. I don’t know how you guys up in Canada go so long without riding. That would drive me insane!!! Please let me know how you like the flash once you can get out on the bike. Thanks for watching and stay safe

[@tbenjamminlive7209]

Bill how do you get in contact with Ivan for ECU flash upgrade?

[@billm6796]

@@GoofyBastard Hey, sorry this took so long but I wanted to give a full season review. When I installed the ECU for the first start of the season it was about 38° F, I went through the full installation process with the error code that is all explained on paper from Ivan's, very easy. Ready to roll I looked at my buddy, crossed my fingers, turned the key on and hit the start button. The bike fired right up, the high idle lasted a little longer than normal, which it seemed to do all summer long on the first start of the day. When the idle went down I did find a difference in the sound from the exhaust, the deep tone from the pipes were not as deep. Through my season of about 22,000 km thing I noticed were, no more backfiring unless a hard throttle to no throttle, the throttle response on slower right and left hand turns with decel and accel hesitation is gone, Difference in power in all gears will be noticed, The big thing for me was the temperature in traffic and hot weather, you have to be in th city to get the gauge above 3/4 mark and it's still not as hot as it used to be, if you want to call it a downside, I did lose some fuel milage but with the power, throttle response, backfiring gone and the big one is the temperature the bike runs at, Ivanizing is well worth it. Hope this helps, enjoy your ride.

[@GoofyBastard]

@@billm6796 thank you for such an in depth assessment of the flash. It sounds like it’s well worth the money.

Take US prices and they are nearly the same difference at $17,000 for the Kawi, $21,700 for the HD RG and $27,300 for the HD RG Special. Again nothing close to double. So not taking into account getting a “deal” from getting a year old left over or what have you there is no way you could buy two Kawasaki Vulcan Vaquero’s for the price of one HD Road Glide + having extra money left over for add ons.
