    See me list the specs and techs while I ride and hear my own opinions about it.

    I have a 2023 Vulcan S. I had 3 Harleys, and when I wanted to get a new bike I couldn’t afford a Harley. I’m 65, 5’6” and love this bike! Nice pickup too!! Great for any level of experience. Enjoy

    Have had mine for 2 years...first bike so have nothing to compare it to, but at 63, I am very happy with it and have no desire to change! Great on highway with enough power to get out of and keep out of trouble, but also good for city travel and daily commute to and from work! Love it...

    I own a 2016 Vulcan S, as a first bike and I really love it. I agree all of your points, however I'm 1.85 cm, and still comfy. It is perfect for just chillin ridings, but I love to try it out for smaller tours also. Also good in city rides, on a bit wider roads, you can trespass across the standing car lines. And it is looks good, I had lots of comments, that this is a nice bike.

    • @Darkvisor

      It's nice to hear that you like your bike. It sure is a great bike. Thanks for letting me know that it fits your height. I sometimes gets comments asking "i'm xxxx tall, can I ride this bike?" so now I can use that information and pass along! =)

    I'm 6'1" and have always liked the fit of a 650. Something about that size/weight combo that makes a great ride. My first street bike was a Yamaha 650 special. Solo seated it and put THOUSANDS of kilometers on it.

      Just bought mine 2024 I used to have vn900 this Vulcan s 650 is much quicker and much more fun.perfect view from the mirrors don't think they look bad at all. I'm 56 yrs old and 5ft 4 from UK best thing I've bought for years. Ride safe and stay upright

    Looks like a great bike for my daughter. She currently rides a Suzuki VL250 but it's a bit small for cruising and we have an 4,000 KM ride coming up and I don't think the 250 can cover it comfortably. I'm on a Triumph Speedmaster 1200 which does everything I need. She was looking at a V-Star 650 but I'm concerned that it may be a bit heavy for her at 5' 2". After watching this demo I'll check out the Vulcan.

    • @Darkvisor
      @Darkvisor  Před 3 měsíci

      Look into Honda Shadow 600 or 750. They are not heavy really, they might are on paper but they are good beginner bikes. I used to have a 750. See my video on my channel, it sounded amazing.... but the vulcan s is a good choice also. =)

    I have always had a soft spot for the Vulcan, having said that after owning the zzr1400 I just don’t think it would have the power I want. 👍👊

    • @Darkvisor
      @Darkvisor  Před 3 měsíci

      Yeah it would be a huge difference in power hehe
      The Yamaha XV1700 Warrior might be a good choice for you though =)

    nice ride man.i was thinking the transalp couse i ride on/off bikes my whole life,but there is something is this bike that i like....maybe i want that easy rider feel at this point of my life.... i m just afraid if the horsepower isnot enought and i regret it

    • @Darkvisor
      @Darkvisor  Před měsícem

      Yeah its a nice bike if you want to cool off and just enjoy riding. If you're a speed freak then maybe its not enough but I didn't find it to feel "too weak/boring"
      try one and find out for yourself if it fits you. it sure is a great bike and if you slap on a slip-on/full system then you're settled =)

    I am about to give up riding AGAIN due to my inability to find the right bike. I will need to try the Vulcan 650S. It's always been a dream bike. I own the 2004 Vulcan Classic 1500 and it's just too much bike for me. I want something nimble, and easy to ride for an old guy with bad knees.

    • @Darkvisor
      @Darkvisor  Před 3 měsíci +1

      Yeah try it. See if its a good fit.
      You can also look into Yamaha Virago 535, Honda CMX500... also nice nimble bikes. I have videos of them on my channel. check them out.

    I've been riding a scooter for about a month. I'm starting to get my license for a big bike and I'm looking for something that would be suitable for a beginner rider. I have no experience as a motorcyclist, but I've been riding a bicycle for 30 years and a car for 30 years. I have a lot of experience in traffic and I've got it all sorted out in my head, so I'm not looking for any high speeds. I'm 194 cm and 118 kg. Would this bike be suitable for me? I mean in terms of size. Riding characteristics, probably yes, as it's more of a beginner's bike. (not very sharp throttle response, lots of safety assists, good handling, not heavy, and finally a bike that forgives a lot of newbies)

    • @Darkvisor
      @Darkvisor  Před 13 hodinami

      I get this question a lot... (tall person asking me 175cm if bike will fit them)
      I honestly cant answer you buddy. Go to your local dealership and sit on the bike, feel if it feels good or not. when you do have your license, try to find one to test ride and you will find out if it fits you or not. =)
      I have ridden bikes (like the honda rebel 500 and 1100) which I have felt were almost too small for me, but I've gotten comments from taller people sayin they had no problem with them at all....
      most cruisers / customs are easy to ride and you don't have to have traction control / safety things. sure it can help but in my opinion, you could do without.
      Most custom / cruisers bikes you can customize with having the pegs and gears put more forward, change them fit taller people. so you could pick whatever bike and just adjust it if you feel the need.
      I hope I could answer you some, feel free to ask me more if you want.
