Bought a 2018 VULCAN S a little over a month ago as my first bike. I’m 6’3 @ a fluffy 285 lbs. I absolutely love it. Your video amongst others was one of the large deciding factors in picking it out. It handles very well, is extremely forgiving for a new rider, and has a ton of pep to it for someone after they become comfortable with the basics and want more power. Last Saturday I talked my best bud into picking up a 2019 VULCAN S as well. He gets it in two days. Thank you for all the hard work you and your team do with setting up videos, testing, comparing, editing, and of course the words of wisdom. Keep up the great work, it does not go unnoticed.

This is what I wanted as my first bike. Quick, torquey, comfortable, ABS, great looking, what’s not to like. Then after passing my test (a long complicated and expensive process here in UK) got to thinking... did I really put myself through all that, on a 600cc bike, just to ride a 650? Some say you should buy a bike within your limits, I disagree. If you RIDE well within your limits, most bikes are manageable and you can grow into them. It all depends how much you trust your own self control. So I bought the Suzuki M109R, intimidating at first but not that difficult when you get used to the size and weight, and it now feels like part of me. I don’t regret it but something about that Vulcan S is still calling me!!

It’s noticeably quicker with just those mods and sounds and looks so much better! This bike has a 6 gears, a digital Speedo with a analog tach, a fuel gauge, and a tool kit under the seat as well. Lots of great stuff for the $6k we paid for it pre owned with 600mi on the clock. Huge back tire and mean black rims..... all in all a bike we will never get rid of and a great first bike for her.

These are great bikes, IMO. Especially if you have a hard time finding a good fit, as these are adjustable for a tailor fit. But if you are on a budget compare the specs to the first generation Kawasaki Vulcan 750. You might be surprised as to how close they are, practically same same. So for $1,500 to $2,500 You could be in the game on a bike that arguably sounds better, and that counts on a cruiser. I'm a huge fan of the VN 750 as they handle incredibly well and I live near Skyline Drive and lots of twisty mountain roads. I went through a lot of cruisers before settling on the VN 750 as best all around middleweight cruiser. But if you have good credit and can afford the payments, and you want a warranty, and modern technology then I agree with Sean the Vulcan S in the video is a great choice.

Question for the channel or the more experienced riders: When I started riding in 1992, I bought a Yamaha Fazer 700cc as my first motorcycle (before that, only a Vespa and other scooter types...) without any formal training, and I immediately realized it was too much; I feel that bike stressed me to the point of selling it, and never riding again. I was young and dumb, and that's what I did. After a few months I sold it, and I haven't been on a bike since then. After all this time, I'm trying to get back into the saddle, with a novice motorcycle class, and a bike size I can enjoy more and feel more comfortable in. Would this be a good bike together into (most likely used...) after taking the new riders class? Or is it still too much...? Thanks for the opinions in advance...👀👍

Awesome! This is the first time I am hearing about this bike. I was worried that if I got a bike (like a Shadow) in 650, I could not cruise at 80-85 mph if I needed to. I will definitely be looking at this one.
@GarethNicholson5 жыл бұрын
The fastest I went with it was about 109mph but then the frontend starts feeling very loose. It could do 100 all day and how it gets you there will put a smile on your face.

Hell yeah. My first bike is a Sportster. Currently on a 2019 Harley Davidson Forty Eight. I originally thought a lot about getting a Breakout next year but in all honesty I'm not that hooked into the rest of the Harley bikes. I love mine and have a lot of fun on it and think they're certainly improved a lot but still... The Harley crowd can sometimes be really cool but also really shitty. I think about getting either a Japanese or European sport bike next.

I saw a similar video. What I don’t get is why is the Vulcan S (498 lbs) so much heavier compared to the Ninja 650 (420lbs) or Z650 (410lbs)? I personally like the weight when commuting on the freeway but if they made it lighter, the Vulcan s should beat the rebel 500 easy.

I've got a request. This bike is good for many sized people. But me being 5'1, I want to eventually get a more powerful bike. I have a Yamaha vstar 650. I'd like something 1300 or larger but it's so hard to find a stronger cruiser for shorter people. Since you have such a vast knowledge, what do you suggest, or can you do a video one day on it? I know there are other vids out there, but they are mostly for 250 to maybe 900 bikes. All beginner bikes. I want one that will help me get an idea on what I can start to look at for when the time comes. Thanks and I really enjoy all your videos. God bless!
