I’m so glad you fixed that left mirror.
I took notice of the Vulcan s because of your videos, and I am now the proud owner of a 2018 Vulcan s SE. I love it!
Thanks!
Ohhhh yeahhh
The 2017 Vulcan S 650 SE is my favorite model and color. The metallic red one, or the matte black colors stand out to me most.
@@VanAnon51 same as mine ;)
Is it good for two up riding?
Thinking about getting one, is it reliable? It’s been 4 years
I bought a new”old stock” 2017 Cafe for $7,200 because of your reviews. Absolutely love this bike. I’ve been riding since 1978. Best bike for the money I have ever had. Is it the best cruiser? Nope! Is it the best sport bike? Nope! Is it the best motorcycle ever made? Nope! What it is? It’s the best motorcycle for the average rider on a budget. It does everything a average rider wants to do. It looks good. It performs well and it’s affordable. Perfect for new riders and old farts like me.
I just got a 2018 Vulcan S 650 delivered today for 6k! AND i got it from a harley dealership lol. My first bike! I wanted something older and more used but they didn't wanna sell me their 06 Iron 883 with 41k miles on it cause they said it would've needed work really soon. they were selling it for $2991
I have Kawasaki Ninja 300 and i really Love it..However i want to upgrade and change the Style so i consider Vulcan S 2020..Will do my Booking tomorrow..I hope it please me like it Pleases you.

Remember the kawa LTD

This vulcan reminds me of
Those bikes
Best of both worlds
No v engines...yes..
I've had the 2019 going on 10 weeks now and I'm loving it! It is my first bike ever and after what I heard about the 250cc's, I'm glad I got the Vulcan S with it's perfect balance of power when I need it and not overpowering at all.
I started a progression video series on my channel. 😎🤙
I subbed a while back while researching leading up to my Vulcan S ABS purchase.👍
It took you six minutes to fix that mirror. IT WAS DRIVING ME CRAZY....
Fun fact. On ramps dont technically have any speed limits themselves. The road leading onto it does, and the highway does. But the ramp does not! (In my state anyway)
@RS1 Those are off ramps, not on ramps.
The law states that the speed limit depends on the conditions of the road, the driver, the vehicle, and the weather. There is always a speed limit. You could technically get a speeding ticket for doing one mile an hour.
Getting back on a bike after 50 years of being off one i found the Vulcan ideal, It does everything i ask of it and its a comfortable ride, My wife rides it too, But has now told me i am too old to ride at 72 grrrrrrrrrr , The roads are dangerous in Thailand. so i ride between 10am and 3 pm, never in the rain and not at night. nor in thunderstorms as i once had to, For me its a great machine, and your video does it justice thank you , Sisaket Thailand.
TBR exhaust helps with 0-60. Great sound too. I got one with the aftermarket exhaust and it's amazing. Only thing I would change is get the extended reach seat, bar and shift lever.
I have the very same bike, color and all. Made a couple upgrades, like louder horn and pass. peg kit and set it up rider configuration as standard w/extended reach seat for a bit more comfort. Would like to upgrade exhaust to aftermarket at some point. It is a 2017 that I bought as "new old stock" with 6 miles on odometer for $6100 out the door. Although I drove 3 hours to get it!
Love the channel, keep it up guys!!
Yamaha has the V-Max, Ducati has the XDiavel, Triumph has the Rocket III... hell, even Harley Davidson has its own muscle cruiser! the V-Rod! Why hasn't Kawasaki made a ridiculous 300hp supercharged Vulcan S yet, is something that still amazes me.
meanstreak
Got a 2019 vulcan s abs for my first bike! Put a delkevic 16 inch slash cut full exhaust on it sounds so much better
Enrico Montoya Put a Boosterplug on it if you haven’t already.
Enrico Montoya got that same exhaust on my matte black 2016 Vulcan S and yep so much better and it hauls the mail!
love the vids! keep up the good work!
I love what you did with the mirrors in this video... lol. I have some Fenrir bar end mirrors on mine. Works great with stock bar end weights.
Under 3 seconds lmao
I been looking for a starter bike like this you and a fellow co-worker have convinced me now to get this bike. 👍
seriously thinking of getting this bike with abs... My first bike was a Suzuki gs500, but after riding a few 80s Shadows.. I got hooked on the forward controls.. this checks nearly every box for me.
God... buddy, THANK YOU for fixing that mirror!!! It was driving me to drink.
HA! Me too. It got to the point that I was trying to reach through the screen!
I have a 19 café it’s my first motorcycle and I really enjoy it honestly the only modifications I’ve done to mine is the LED headlight tail light and then I added a mechanical cruise control from Atlas
Been looking for a beginner cruiser that actually felt good on the highway. Its 4hrs of cruising to get back home for me on weekends. Like how this one doesn't feel played out up top. Still has some jam in the higher rpms
That sound is the same as my 2019 Kawasaki ninja XE650 definitely when I got it I expected a bigger sound but it only had 1 mile on it so that was my plus reason I bought it. muffler change out may give me a more bikier sound hopefully! Great videos brother I appreciate all the information you provide and greatful for those moment you share the word! I also have a super loud Kawasaki 2001 Vulcan classic 1500 cobra pipes so I get the best of both worlds.
Love your videos! I am looking to purchase my first “REAL” bike, ridden off road and large moped/scooters in the past. Anyway, I now live in the Philippines and after doing considerable amount of research, the S is my best choice. I can’t seem to find too many 900’s so I am sort of settling for the 650 S, but your videos support that decision. Thanks.
Got a 2017 Vulcan S Cafe w/ABS with 1 mile on it for 6k as my first bike last month. LOVE IT. Just quick enough to put a huge smile on your face, without trying to kill a newbie.
Cody Lambert I got a 2016 cafe for 5k as my first bike last August. These bikes are awesome.👍
@@larrywilliams2386 Glad there's a nice little community of us novices that found an awesome beginner bike that you can grow into! Huge probs to @srkcycles for showing these off.
What’s top speed ?
"without trying to kill a newbie". GREAT way to put it. These bikes are pretty quick stock. And comfortable! I got my 2017 this summer with 2,500 miles on it for $4,500. It was $500 off the asking price but it was a 6-hour round trip. So I guess I did pay 5k in the end. Stay safe & vertical!
I just bought a 2023 Vulcan s. I pick up up Saturday!
Your videos mainly (among others) informed my purchase of my 2019 Kawasaki Vulcan S. Thank You.
That thing sounds awesome.
Vulcan S was on my shopping list as well but I ended up with Triumph Bonneville Bobber Black and I love every bit of it. Don't let 1200cc Bobber intimidate you, it's a very forgiving motorcycle and the power is available when you need it. Bobber Black is a beautiful bike and it turns a lot of heads.
Not really a competitor price wise. HD 48 or Indian Scout Bobber are better competitors. But all these bikes are simply fantastic
I have a Vulcan but I've never just stopped and stared at a bike more than the Bonneville Bobber. 🤤
3:28 GUILTY!! I bought my Vulcan S (mostly)because of this channel!
Got my new 2020 Vulcan S Cafe about a week and a half ago. It pretty much replaced my 2001 Vulcan 800 Classic. I love this bike to death, I feel like I'm king of the road on this thing! (Obviously I'm not, semi trucks still scare the hell out of me, still...) I feel like I've found my last bike, assuming I can take good care of it.
Do you still love it more than your Vulcan 800 ?
I want to buy a Vulcan !
That mirror is distracting me! 😆
great review
It could also be a good 2nd. bike. Or also for an older rider down sizing.
its a great bike for returning bikers
gilbert sanchez correct that’s what I bought it for. Returning after 30 years👍
@@trey9233 good for people with old guy problems like bad knees,backpain,etc. like me :)
@marky mark and the bunky funch
Puig has a similar windscreen & it's a little taller for better wind deflection. Plus it's a LOT cheaper and doesn't require those clunky fork mounted brackets. I love my 2017. It came with a booster plug installed and engine braking isn't bad at all. Unfortunately 2021 and newer bikes supposedly don't accept the booster plug. I guess in that case you could do an ECU flash.
Hi Sean love the blog here in the uk. God bless. I am a new rider like the look of the Vulcan and also the Yamaha xv950 r(bolt) what would be the better for a new rider. stay close
Wow racing a component (2:50) I mean OK but a competitor might be a better idea. Have to say I love the look of the Cafe and the way it's set up looks like a good position to ride in.
Could you do a video of the Harley Davidson street rod 750
Bought the exact same bike an just love it
I love these bikes! One day I’ll afford one ☺️
Having just bought 1 today 8k for a brand new bike is a steal
4.2 secs 0-60 is what Ive read in my research and its definitely the fastest in the small-mid size cruiser group. Yamahas and most motorcycles have speedometer deviation though , so when going 60 youre probably only going 55....
I noticed my bike is 3mph off
What’s the top speed
@@cindysj2788 It's 180° from its bottom speed.
Happy with my 2017 FZ-09 Yamaha and the great mileage
Hey, I know JC has your back an all that but do your boots up bro. 😉
What were Kawasaki thinking with those mirrors?! They came straight off the KLR right! 😆 Don't "cafes" have clip ons?
What kind of Jacket do you wear? I like the High vis on it!
I cant even get a drivers license and yet I want a Vulcan S haha
I absolutely want this bike, only thing I'm worried about is the revs at 120-130 kph, is this still comfortable for 2-3 hours straight?
I'm thinking of buying this bike because of your videos
Here in Australia the vulcan 650 the bike shops can't keep these in the shop they run out its crazy they sell before the shop can put the price on them . Do you guys have that going on as well .
Hey Shawn where do I get those boots man they seem to be holding up through the years.
Even though I have owned larger bikes in the past, my budget just won't allow it right now, so I would have no problem purchasing one of these ...at least I could ride!
You should do a review on the new royal enfield. Its a triumph style retro twin and its around $5k brand new. Nothing touches it. Its one of the top selling bikes worldwide this year.
jay etheredge Indian made terrible quality.
@@interman7715 That's a lie. It's a matter of what makes someone happy. That's what you buy. Royal Enfield has tens of thousands of satisfied customers and they're affordable. Because of this they sold twice as many bikes this year than last year.
Wow! Did you see that dude run through the cornfield backwards?
Wish I could finde one. Looking for one of thoes or the Honda rebel 500 for my first bike.
Looks like a fun bike, but that thing will never crack 4 seconds.
It has cracked 4 seconds in official tests. Just about 3.8 or 3.9 I think.
Well I bought a 2019 Vulcan s and now I will have to go change my underwear. This thing is scary fast.
Shoomapa Doo change the exhaust and get a boosterplug.
@@bryanpetrich4125 I really wish it were quieter. I'm thinking about changing the intake but shedding 20lbs is tempting too. Got a Cadillac Horn. Don't want loud pipes.
@@bryanpetrich4125 whats a booster plug
Cottonballs Boosterplug.com
Is it comfortable enough for long distance (not around the world but a few hundred miles) and can it carry a passenger comfortably?
Just saw the 0 to 60 part now. It's pretty quick for what is, but definitely not a serious runner.
well this is it, this is the bike i want. dont care if it takes 2 more years without a bike. im starting to save up for one NOW.
Oh they all have gear indicators now ? Didn’t know
Hi guys. I’m totally interested in the white Kawasaki Vulcan S cafe but I don’t see it listed on your sight. I dig all of your videos, I watch all the time.
will that windshield help remove some air from the chest? when i drive 105mph its a bit hard holding the wind back.
I now own one. Sold my Bonneville T100 and bought a 2020 with 2K miles. I like how you talk about the speed, but the first thing I noticed was the twists. It's near the weight of a Bonnie, but feels like half the weight, and really tips over far without scraping. Also rev matching is pretty awesome.
I definitely got mine because of your videos 😅
4.3 0-60 isn't too bad, especially for the price.
But when I truck does that with it being a steel body, not fast
a GOD fearing moto vlogger.. pretty cool.. except the vulcan s the mostly like in your vids is the word of GOD in the Bible for the intro.. keep it up mannnnn 😇🙏GODspeed as always
I'm looking to get my first bike, and this is the bike I've always thought was beautiful, I've wanted one for years, just need to find one for a decent price
Todd Davis check your local dealers for new “old stock” if you want a new one. I picked up a brand new 2017 abs cafe on clearance for $6,000. I absolutely love it.
Well, the gear indicator is new too.
Picked one of these used the other night for $2500, really fun bike. Just need to fix the shifter on mine cause it stays down when down shifting
6:19 OMG fixing the mirror was the best thing in the whole world... Thank you...
I still have a 87 ZL1000 eliminator. Love the inline 4 ninja on a cruiser.
I am looking into one of these for my gf. Looks like a great starter bike for her. She is only 5 ft tall. So not much has to go into adjust the height for her
Nice VIDEO, take up against a HONDA MAGNA VF750 RC43. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE RESULTS.
Is the bullet fairing available for purchase
How tall are you, I’m 6’4 will I fit ?
Are you selling either of these bikes?
So I'm looking for my first bike I can ride on an NZ LAMS category, and luckily, Kawasaki offers these with a restricter to make it LAMS compliant while Im on my learners. Ive been driving fast cars for a while, but after realising my wife in her diesel Mondeo can keep up with my RX-8 (because of traffic, 100kph speed limits, safety, blah, blah) I want something to ride to put a grin on my face every time I go out. The Vulcan looks like the bike I want and is a reasonable price. That faring though, does it REALLY matter if Im NOT going to be blasting 200kph down the highway? Will the naked bike be fine until I want to push a little more? Would that little gap around this cafe faring make the bike whistle?
It looks fun to ride
Gotta tuck low from SHEETZ to SHEETZ
Hi.Just wondering I am 5.11' and 120 kgs.I am considering buying one due to an aling back.Whould I be fine on this bike and how does it perform on a steep road or up hill?
Every beginner should start on a 2016 or older Honda Rebel 250. Best beginner bike ever made. Yes it's too small to keep for a long time, unless you are really small. But that is not the idea. You want to learn without dying, and the little Rebel is way easier to control than the Vulcan 650S. You can get them cheap, and if you don't destroy them, you can probably get your money back when you sell it. It's really too bad Honda quit making this bike. It was by far the best option for a beginner.
i like it...👍
The buzzy sound of the engine is what kills it for me. I know it’s good at everything else, but if you’re looking for a cruiser, you want a bike with a good sound (for the most part)
A parallel twin will always sound like a parallel twin no matter what kind of exhaust pipe is on it.
@@bikescone9068 unless it's a crossplane
Arrow aftermarket pipes without baffle is amazing... great note, problem solved.
What boots are you wearing?
U ever try the new one wheel single engine bike I seen one and they guy looked very unsafe but it had abs he paid 33k for a one a year ride so wild
0:35 Was that on purpose? That was hilarious
Great starter bike. I bought one for my wife
How much to Poke & Stroke to 740 cc ?
how much do you weigh i know your taller than me i'm 6 foot even and 250 ish pounds just wondering if this would be a good first bike for me my main concern is how big i'm gonna look on it size wise
Wish that model was available in Korea
Did anyone get the leaf blower joke at beginning referencing the bike’s only flaw, it’s sound.
My '85 XJ700 would smoke this thing. The Vulcan S is a great bike, but there are good classics out there from the 4 cylinder muscle cruiser era of the late 70's and 80's that can still put a big smile on your face.
Yeah go ahead and buy an outdated antique 😆. And spend more time working on it than enjoying it 🤦🏻♂️. The KVS is the same engine that's in the 650 Ninja and that thing will certainly keep up with a XJ700. The main difference is the KVS has a different cam, giving it more torque and less horsepower.
I love ❤it …😊
Question: I'm 6'2" and about 340 lbs. I'm quite broad, but obviously fat. Am I gonna make this thing want to kill itself or will it still perform ok? Obviously not as quick or fast as someone who is 180 lbs.
My dream bike
The local dealer has a NOS 2015 Vulcan with ABS for $5,000. I am tempted to buy it but it would be my first bike. Not sure I want to spent that much on my first bike though.
Great bike. Wish it had a 270 crank, though. Better torque and sound than the 180. Such a simple thing for Kaw to do.
That Vulcan looked like it needed air in the front tire.
It's faster 0 to 60 than a 883 Sportster. Lol.
isnt every bike?
And a street glide, Triumph rocket 3, and V-Rod. It's ridiculously quick for a cruiser.
@@xfiringsquadx v rod 0-60 is 3.5 seconds. What are you talking about
Gotta do an upgrade on the exhaust. Doesn’t sound too good.
kinda funky looking
how tall are you??
I purchased this bike new in 2017 in comparison to the 883 for the wife. I surprised her with it. She was coming off a Buell Blast for her first bike. She absolutely loves it! I think you totally miss the fast that the “Café” come with ABS, huge part of why I got the bike for her. But anyways great video as usual, and looking forward to more!
Did you miss the part where he stated the fact being the only difference between the cafe and non cafe is the bullet windscreen? You can get ABS on any of these.
I find it beyond admirable that you start off your day with an uplifting word from God! Thank you & God be with you in all endeavors!
