  • So here it is, after test riding the Honda CMX Rebel 500 and the Kawasaki Vulcan S 650. I settled for the Vulcan S.
    I felt the bike just fitted me a lot better than the Honda. The Honda is still an amazing motorcycle and you should Definitely test ride it if you are thinking about purchasing one.
    Check out my review on the Honda CMX Rebel

    As a Canadian I am always amazed at the filtering. I would have loved to do it at times but my VL1500 with full luggage is too wide.

    I’ve never been into cruisers but with this bike the more you look at it the better it gets, it has some really lovely details, great choice I’d say.
    Really enjoy your review and vlogging style and I’m hoping your channel blows up in subs and views to where it deserves to be.
    Looking forward to going through the back catalogue and more upcoming content.
    Cheers 👍🏻

    Congrats on the new bike! I watched your previous comparison vlog and was interested to see what the outcome would be (I had my money on the Vulcan, it came across as "the one"). I'm looking forward to hearing how you get on with it long term, it's a bike I keep looking at (the Rebel too if I'm honest) so it will be very helpful to have a UK perspective on riding and ownership. Good luck with the breaking in period, I hope you two enjoy many happy miles together :)

    I got the 2022 vulcan s 650 and love it.. With the emission standards these days it makes it jerky at low revs and alot of engine braking. I got me a booster plug and it helped it out a lot.. So the booster plug says its for 17' to 20' and stopped supporting after that but the booster plugs will work in 21' and 22' just fine.

      Well, I've sadly stopped riding it. It's got 900miles on the clock and she's parked up. My partner got diagnosed with breast cancer in December 2021 and stopped work. Therefore I've struggled to afford & justify running two bikes. I'll be selling it ASAP. Probably chopping it in to a dealer who can clear the finance.
      But in the several months I Rode it. It's a good bike, comfortable, fun, exciting to ride and looks brilliant. I really do enjoy it
