When the Vulcan S first was introduced one of the features Kawasaki promoted was the fact that the seat, pegs and handlebar were adjustable to fit the rider. As far as I know that is still the case.
Yes, I discovered that after but looking at it not sure it’s adjustable enough for me. 😁 not the bikes fault at all and it doesn’t detract from the ride😁 very comfy on the open road 😁
Ergo-fit tried it out at one of the bike shows, although they do have to change parts out so it is not something you can change easily once you make your choice.
@@shardlake 🤔 that’s a pain 🤔 thanks S 😁
I bought one new this year and LOVE IT! I’m 5’9 and 170 lbs and have the mid position controls. It’s absolutely perfect!
It’s very quick, agile, forgiving and fun to ride.
I put a CS Racing exhaust on it which I love as well. I use mine to commute to work every day and so I hit freeways, twisties and city roads on my daily ride and it performs flawlessly.
Marvellous, it is hard to go wrong with a Japanese bike, that’s for sure 😁 thanks AK 😁
how does it perform with a passenger on the back?
@@kurgon1976 I haven’t rode with a passenger yet. But I have a friend who has one and he rides with his wife and says it has more than enough power for cruising
I love this sportcruiser! There is something special with these Vulcans and I can’t explain what… it’s something! Wouldn’t be surprised with the fact that a Vulcan S will enter our garage some day later. A strange bite, with a great taste🎉
😂😂😂 yes an oddity I think 😁 thanks Lilian 😁
I figured out why I love your channel, not only was I one of your original viewers. But I wake up, use the facilities and get a cup of coffee with you. What a great morning.
😂😂😂😂 brilliant 😁 thanks LoY 😁
I was looking at this bike since my injury, knowing it is light and agile. Also at a Harley Sportster used. I was unsure of my knee flex on the left side with keeping it up. Have to ride one in the fall and see. Not sure I told you, I signed up for a Can-am training class next month to ride I hope all three of there models during the training. The bike looks fantastic for a cruiser, I started on a Yamaha V-Star 650. Rode that for 35,000 miles before I sold it. I see why people watch first ride videos as it gives perspective. I remember Exeter Rider on the W800 Café and he had problems finding the side stand. I own one and still have an issue with that. Now it's even harder with the left leg muscle to put it down. Sorry for the long one today. But you got my juices flowing and excited. Be easy on ER tomorrow, i believe you two are a good couple to have a conversation for an hour or two. Thank you for all you do.
Yes it doesn’t have the style of the old ones for sure😁 thanks LoY 😁
hope all goes well for you mate
@@icedidi they now have me jumping through hoops. Which is stated by doctor not to do. 😂 since released to lite duty, I need to apply to 5 jobs a week. Crazy to find ones that fit requirements. Any ways, I have increased pain with more movement and now on nerve meds and pain pills. Both I don't like. But the bright side, I can ride for about 30 minutes. So that is good.
@@BlakesPipes 30mins over 0 is excellent news mate! Day by day, step by step
There’s something about this bike…. like a strange alien kinda cruiser type of bike…. I must admit I have been drawn to this one and maybe because it’s a little bit “not like all the others” what makes me like it so much…. wouldn’t be surprised if one fine day it’ll be in my garage….
And as usual, thanks for another pleasant saturday morning coffee 😊👍
Thanks RB 😁 definitely a bit of a strange one 😁
I used to want a cruiser until I tried one😂 To be honest, I love the seat height and I loved the forwarc controls. When you have smaller feet, they are much easier to use being above the pegs. However, cruisers are also big lumps to ride around steep, sharp corners and very rough roads. I'm definitely going Scrambler now. Agreed, liquorice or maybe orange jellybean 😉🔴
😂😂😂😂 I see, you’re an orange jelly benn sort of person🤔 interesting🤔 😂😂 thanks Lily 😁
Kawasaki have made Vulcan s 650 since 2015 - only gear indicator and colour change since then - yep they got it right first time. They have made heavier cruisers since late 1980s - my old Vulcan 800 was a fab machine but too heavy and cumbersome in bends - Vulcan s is completely different concept, derived from Versys and Ninja 600 and it shows in agility and peformance, economical too, real life averaging 67 mpg uk. Can you cruise on it - you bet - just returned from 2500 mile tour northern Spain and central Portugal,solo. Twisties e.g. Picos a real doddle. Yes in stop/start traffic you can stand up - a godsend.
They still do ergo fit, look it up. Mine is standard I am 5'10 14 stone - perfect for me, you can also change height of gear peg by simple adjustment of attached rod. Had mine now for 4 years and apart from conmdensation once in the start button (what would we do withput wd40?) never misses a beat. Recommend you take one out, the longer the better, first front feet forward position does seem weird but becomes ultra comfortavle. Enjoy
I think I should try this bike again 😁 thanks S 😁
Good morning TAYM can feel different forward facing controls lot of people have these bikes women riders love them.
Shorter legs I am guessing 🤔 so very low, it’s like getting off one of those low sofas you wish you hadn’t sat on 😂😂😂
@@TAYM hi TAYM just got back from breakfast in wales I know them sofas 😂👍👍
@@SOLOMOTOUK 😂😂😂 you know what I mean😂😂😂 thanks Derek 😁
Nice little review Mr TAYM. With so many bikes being too tall for ladies and smaller riders the Vulcan is a good addition to Kawasaki's range. Kawasaki don't make poor quality bikes. The one thing that puzzles me is the single front disc. The same engine in a different model gets two discs. Is it safety or is it fashion? Which is right ? P.S. I have three bikes and all have single front discs.
Good question 🤔 the super meteor only gets one and is fine despite its lardy weight 😁 thanks DT 😁
You were so underwhelmed with this motorcycle, for the first time I nodded off 😂.
Well , I'd just worked a full day, let's chalk it up to that!
Love your Churchill paraphrase.
Have a great weekend.
Happy Mother's Day to Mrs TAYM.💐
I tried really hard to hide it😂😂😂 clearly 😞 😂😂 thanks JT 😁
Great review MrTAYM, I'm always impressed by your riding skill and ability to adapt.
As a new rider, I always try to watch your clutch hand because your so smooth,
but the logo is always in the way now isn't it😂. This seems like a great bike for a beginner who wants to go the cruiser route.
Great observation on the shock position as the S Meteor gives a jolt to the taint🤣-Cheers!
Thanks TC 😁
Had a couple of flirtations with cruiser style bikes (Yamaha XV950 and Victory Judge) enjoyed XV but just couldn't get on with the Judge for some reason. The Vulcan S does look very nice and sounds lovely. Great review as always. 👍
Thanks MM 😁 I’ve ridden three ‘cruisers’ now and they have all been completely different to each other. I don’t think there is any other class of motorcycle that would have such big differences between different models/manufacturers 🤔
Footpegs have 3 positions so easy to accommodate most riders preferences. Seat adjustable too.
Thanks PN 😁 Yes I have learnt about the pegs but had no idea the seat was adjustable too😁 That’s fantastic. Thank you 😊
had a vulcan s last year untill it was stolen and wrecked /written off by insurance lovely machines you can alter the seat/pegs and bars to suit your hight with the ergo fit system they have (i'm 6ft 2 by the way) .now riding the triumph 865 speedmaster bought with the insurance pay out
Yes I discovered that after but looking I didn’t think it would make that much difference for me but I will have to see if they could set it up for me one time 😁 thanks DS 😁
Carry on Cruising Mr TAYM
I Reckon you are Right about the
Gear Change & Foot Position
This Engine is used in Many
Kawasaki Bikes & Has been
Refined over the Years so its very
Well Proven Unit
Thanks JL 😁 yes, very good ride on the open road 😁
Mr TAYM, nice test ride. I looked at these, because cruisers as so popular here in the states. After sitting on a few of them, I decided I just wasn't a cruiser guy. I'll stick with my T120 and Tigger with mid controls and a higher seating position.
😂😂😂 I know where you’re coming from 😂😂😂 thanks DT 😁
That’s a TAYM ‘Marvellous score’ of three, by my count. As I also have long legs I found you test ride useful. Thank you,
Thanks GE 😁 yes, it is adjustable but I don’t think looking at it, if you have 34 or more inches, not enough 😁
Appears there is a lot of adjustability of this bike to accommodate the rider. Foot peg placement, handlebars etc besides the possible mods. Also the exhaust is nice and low to accommodate luggage. It seems like a bike well worth consideration.
Thanks P 😁 yes, I would have to try one all adjusted to know I think😁 without doubt the bike has some great qualities 😁
I've seen a few of these in dealers but can never decide if I like it. From your view it looks small to ride and doesn't sound like it has over 60hp! Still it's nice to see differing styles of bike on the channel. Live long and prosp.....hang on, wrong Vulcan... 😆
I have had the same feeling 😁 strange one for sure 😁 thanks Ice 😁

@@ruahinesrider definitely.
Mr Taym you are knocking this channel out the park, superb. For me this and the rebel in all black are hideous regardless of superb mechanicals. I have ridden rebel 1100 dct. Nice but niche. Just cant stand everything all black, whereas Meteor is very pretty looking. Not my style…… just yet. There’s seems to be plently of rebels on the road where I live. Not seen a Meteor on the road yet
Yes, they are like the BSA🤔 seem to be selling a lot but never see them out and about🤔 not even many Vloggers yet with them 😁 thanks Volt 😁
Nice review on the Vulcan. But the title is "comparison with Meteor and Rebel". Not to be rude but there are 1000 reviews about the Vulcan. I was hopping for a comparison. The only think mentioned was the suspensions vs the Meteor and the foot position .... I was hopping for more. The title is a bit deceiving I guess :)
You are quite right, sorry about that, it wasn’t meant to be a comparison. The comparison video is still to come. I shall change the title so no one else suffers the same fate as you. 😁 sorry 😞
Mr. TAYM, your "laid back" presentation on the way of the Vulcan S was very real world application, I enjoyed watching you show the bike in real time road life, not, staged to look like something that's not accurate. My living here in the U.S. is no different. I don't enjoy a "staged" road ride presentation, it degrading to the motorcycle brand/intended use. Great work on the video here.😁👍😎🦅🏍️🧸 Doug
Thank you so much for your kind words DR 😁 they mean a lot😁 real world riding isn’t perfect and neither are my videos, least I hope not😂😂 thanks DR 😁
TAYM, as you produce the videos, your "real world style" will be so natural, and, uniquely your signature format for a review. Your style review will be instantly recognizable, just like your signature is recognized as your own. Keep up the good work, and, salidify how it appears, nothing to be embarrassed by/or ashamed of, it's all good and getting better!🏍️⭐⭐⭐😎👍🧸😁🐻 Doug
@@douglasradowick508 thanks DR 😁
Great video relaxed and honest as ever. Never tried a cruiser always wondered how they steer and the forward gear and brake pedals. Seems like a motorised comfy chair😂. As with all the Japanese manufacturers looks very good quality and vfm.
It does seem a bit like a trolly at slow speed handling but that could be me just not used to it🤔 thanks DC 😁
Entertaining ride Mr Taym, the engine is a really good one and the build quality and ride is typical Kawasaki, top notch but the style, the modern cruiser, nah not for me, I much preferred the Kawasaki VN800/900 that this replaced, they were “proper “ cruiser’s if ever you get the chance to get a ride on one go for it, you will be impressed, all the best 👍
Thanks MH 😁 I shall try and find one 😁
You mentioned that it "goes well enough" - that isn't doing this bike justice. You don't need to be in the cruiser mindset (slow and steady) to enjoy this bike.
Unlike conventional V-twins, this bike _loves_ to be revved high. Get it singing >6k RPM! If you give it revs it is _blisteringly_ fast for a cruiser, with your 0-60mph being about 4-4.5s. You can even wheelie the thing if you want.
It is certainly an interesting bike with more than enough power and for the money it’s hard to beat in the cruiser class🤔 thanks M 😁
The only cruiser style bike I've ever liked is some Harleys. I rather a used Sportster 1200. Hope you manage to get a go on the Fat Boy.
Thanks S 😁 I will chase Harley dealer up this coming week 😁
Great video. Just bought a 2021 vulcan s and really enjoying it. It has a Delkevic exhaust (..nice but can't decide if a tad noisy for me, so will try the stock exhaust again, before I go deaf). Also came with a mid reach seat, but being 5'6" I picked up a reduced reach seat on marketplace and have been swapping positions constantly to find what I like best. With the short reach seat and adjusting the handlebars it handles very much like the 650 versys I had in the twisties, but much more fun on the highway. Love just to cruise and know that it handles so well when I hit the winding hills. Looking forward to a long road trip in a couple of months up north (2000kms each way). Its a pretty cool bike, especially for the money, and so versatile. Thanks again for the video.
Yes, there isn’t much else that will compete with it for anything like the same money 😁 thanks JR 😁
A marvellous crusade to explore the virtues of this cruiser, you're fairly getting used to them now, it won't be long before you're converted. I think I know the one which will sway you, you need to try the Rocket 3 GT even if it's just to compare it to the R 🤔 It has a more relaxed riding position and once you find your feet I think you'll find it cruises with attitude 😯😀 Mrs TAYM would love the slightly more padded seat and the reassurance of the sissy bar. Though that in itself would surely present even more of a dilemma 😉🤔😕😀
😂😂😂😂 thanks GW 😁 it certainly would 😁 😂😂😂
Hi TAYM that was interesting, I know it's probably a brand new bike but you did seem very gentle with it. I like the concept of a sports cruiser not very heavy plenty of power but I must admit I'm not a big fan of the looks myself. I think you should definitely take it out again and give it the beans a bit I think it might surprise you.
Hi Mike, I was having real problems with the gear level position due to my XL legs 😂😂😂 will definitely take it out again though 😁
@@TAYM I can only imagine 🤣🤣🤣not something I suffer with personally lol
@@Grumpy-Goblin put it this way, whilst the video might appear haphazard and zero input, there was some clever editing and some missing expletives 😂😂😂
The Vulcan S is a great lil 650 in the cruiser style.
If money and space weren’t an issue I’d have owned one by now. Just too many cool bikes out there. 👍
Thanks PW 😁 it’s certainly very comfy on the open road but difficult in traffic with my gangly legs 😁😂😂😂
Great review 👏 I found exactly the same problem with the gear shifter when I tried one out a while back...looks nice in the matt black though 👍
Thanks Willie 😁 was beginning to think it was just me 😁
@@TAYM I actually thought it was ME ! with my freakishly large size 15 boots !
@@2wheeledwillie395 😂😂😂😂😂
As with most bikes, gear shifter is easily adjustable.
@@RobbieBowen-cv1mt thanks RB 😁
Great bikes. For all I had issues, and stepped away. It was a difficult decision and I would go back I think. Nippier than others in its class. Seat and adjustable settings of pegs, seat and bars were deciding factors for me.
A great bike for the money.
I do love my suzuki vz800 intruder. 😊
Thanks LJ 😁 yes, a Suzuki bad girl bike 😂😂😂 a proper cruiser 😁
@@TAYM 😆 the vulcan s actually had a bit more naughty girl if you didn't cruise. 😇
@@ladyjrider666 😂😂😂😂
Grand review Mr TAYM; I wonder what the Giraffe would think to it, as for me, i think I'm going to be sick.
Get a bucket quick 😂😂😂😂 thanks TG 😁
Nice video! How tall are you mate? I’m tall(ish) at 6’0 and I find some bikes quite cramped
I am 6ft 2in with a 34 in inside leg. 😁 I found this nice and roomy 😁 thanks H 😁
Love it but would choose a different colour personally. I like the grey one best, followed by orange then the green, fit a screen and bags and off on a big trip. I read that Kawasaki do a thing called Ergofit? The bike can be set up with different footpeg and bar/seat positions from the dealer.
Yes I found that out after😂😂 I thought it went very and if after adjustment it fitted then it would only be the seat height that’s an issue for me😁 thanks MH 😁
@@TAYM The seat height is the bit i like, im a shortarse, haha.
@@mikehurley5052 😂😂😂
Cheers TAYM. I bet you would love a Harley Sportster if you had a go on one.👍 Like Bertie but with twice the noise
Sounds marvellous 😁 thanks BV 😁
Gear levers are easily adjusted for height on the connector rod. I had to do this on my Triumph Speedmaster I couldn't get my toe under it,
Thanks ME 😁 the only triumph I haven’t ridden 🤔 I must try to get on one😁
Yes I have meteor 350 I want the Vulcan 650 next love this bike 🥂 passed my full licence in Ipswich 🥂 sure I recognise some of those routes 🤣
Thanks TTB 😁 I am sure you will 😁 very comfortable bike for sure 😁
Super a nice cruiser TAYM I reckon you might be more suited to 1100 version😉 now I reckon that might be a good one it is nice in all black though and that would be the colour I would choose .Nice one 👌👍
Thanks Crumb 😁 yes, I liked this but not as much I had hoped but tried to hang on to the positives 😁😂😂
@@TAYM Not to suprised really I would guess forward pegs and cruising wouldn´t be your cup of tea but maybe a Harley might cure that issue .😉👍Ohh threw my leg over a Benelli TreCiento today a new one on me the guy let me get a feel proper naughty one on a 54 plate t I´ll send you some pic´s if I can
@@crumblymal8479 marvellous 😁
Half a round clock was a good start. It is the ideal bike for Halloween and Herman Munster would look great on it. As soon as I saw it I thought that it would taste like liqorice and then I howled "Yeeessss" when you said the same thing. I can't think of a reason to own one 😂, but I do like that you test all kind of bikes, even some that I would never dream of riding, like the Vulcan 🤣🤣. That was a lot of fun, as usual. 👍👍
Thanks GBD 😁 😂😂😂 you never know unless you ride them 😁
@@TAYM I do think that if a pretty girl was riding the Vulcan, it would look terrific. 👀
@@GapBahnDirk i concur 😁
@@TAYM ....but unlike Herman Munster, I wouldn't be seen dead on one 😀
@@GapBahnDirk 😂😂😂
I'm no fan of all black, cruisers need a bit of bling, even chrome bars would give it a lift. Would not fancy paying to replace that heart shaped headlight when a stone cracks it. Looks comfy 👍
Thanks Bill 😁 very comfy 😁
Nice bike Tam but prefer the look of the super meteor but heh splendid video 😊😊😊
Yes, but there is something about this bike🤔 it almost looks like a concept drawing 😁
I realize it's an old video but I just wanted to say that the reviewer is pretty much lugging the bike. That particular bike makes it's power at higher revs. It has a sport bike motor although it is tuned a little differently. Keeping it around 3000 rpms is going to make it feel like a dog.
You are dead right 😁 The problem was I was having real problems with the gear leaver. Something had come loose and it was difficult for me to get my big, fumbling feet on it so choose to make as fewer gear changes as possible. 😁 thanks J 😁 I spoke to them when I got back and have been meaning to ride it again. I also like the look of the Eliminator which should be a lot easier for me not to cock up with the mid foot pegs 😁
@@TAYM For some reason I love the look of the Eliminator too and I don't even know why because normally I go for a look that is a little more traditional like a Royal Enfield or a Triumph or a Harley or Indian.
G’day Mr Taym, This bike was on my radar once and they are pretty much the same price as the super meteor over here…but I would definitely choose the Super meteor over the Vulcan S….it’s a Royal Enfield thing 😁
Seems like a good reason 😁 thanks ABD 😁
Hey Mate, Im in the same conundrum, Vulcan S or RESM650 ? any pointers ?
@@RaviMDabral I would go super meteor route and hope the rear suspension can be sorted or that it softens up 😁 thanks 😁
@@RaviMDabral I too recommend the Meteor 659, don’t think you can go wrong with a Royal Enfield 👍
@@TAYM Ya with low clearance only way to sort it now at the price is Mono-Suspension like Kawa, However, RE doesn't have the tech for it (yet) , fortunately, I live in a Bump free country of Luxembourg ) Thanks !
i test rode one , takes a bit of time to adapt to the laid back bit ;; but bike suits a lot of sizes , i am 6 ft 2 in
Yes, it grew enormously on me just in the short time I was on it. Plus I figured ways around the issues I was having due to size, funny how the body adapts 😁 thanks SG 😁
Morning Taym well she has a very good engine and I know a lot of people love them but I will give this one a miss 🤔 good video though 😃👍
I can see where you coming from AR 😁 thanks 😊
I tried the Super Meteor yesterday and liked the seating position and quickly got used to the gearbox but the suspension was punishing but i like the style so thats why i am watching this
I too thought the Super Meteor harsh. My friend bought one and change the shocks and says it’s better but I think it is more to do with the position/angle😁 this is much more comfortable 😁 thanks J 😁
Thanks for the reply TAYM.
It is a good looking bike, quite different from the ones I remember in the mid 80's.
I agree about the taste, I was thinking those licorice scotty dogs! 😂😂
Thanks 2WV 😁 yes, very different, no shiny bits 😁
Cruisers do nothing for me either but personally given the choice I could live with the looks of this 'modern' style cruiser
look more than the Super Meteor 'traditional' style.
I'm in a minority though in thinking the Super Meteor is RE's least successful design effort so far., so what do I know !!
Not sure you are alone DJ 😁
watching you drive on the left side of the road with traffic is nerve racking. I would quickly die riding in Europe. lol
You would probably be ok on the continent, they drive on the right hand side 😁 it’s only us brits that drive on the left 😁 thanks K 😁
@@TAYM have you taken it out with a passenger?
@@kurgon1976 no, I ought to ask if I could take Mrs TAYM out on it😁
I took a super meteor for a test ride and while it’s a nice bike and well built. It’s lacking something, not sure what it is. It’s not as powerful as I expected. The interceptor has more go. I didn’t like the way it felt slow riding was a bit janky. And as you said the rear suspension is hard, you get bucked out of the seat on speed bumps.
Thanks PR 😁 I know what you mean , just something 🤔
21st like 130th view cooking tea again & left headphones🎧 in.I need a wife to cook tea every other day to give me a chance at watching TAYM.
A wife or meals on wheels or maybe 2 wives to cook every night....what am I thinking that sounds like potential trouble....meals on wheels mate u r getting on a bit.

Did you end up getting the Vulcan s, I took a Vulcan s cafe for a test ride. The peg position was my main issue, I'm used to pegs under you, not forward, but a few stops later, I was finding the pegs alright.
Thanks RB Jr 😁 no, I need to try it again I think to give the pegs another go. I have heard from other tall people that did manage to get the pegs sorted and others who didn’t. 😁 did you buy one? 😁
@@TAYM not yet, need to sell the current bike first
@@lilwolf1970 what’s your current bike?
I like the sound, not sure of the colour (sound like my Mrs there). Personally, I prefer more up front, by that I mean a big instrument panel and a nose fairing or something . .. skinny front ends are a put off for me. Would I have one - well yeeaaahhhh 😎
Strange you say that because when i first looked at the rebel 1100 with the fairing on I thought it looked odd but after riding it i loved it 😁 thanks ARO 😁
The flow of the tank design loox better than the Rebel 500 but the engine loox a bit more of a lump. Maybe because it's not blacked out like on the Rebel.
Yes the engine just looks like a block 😊 rebel does look a little dramatic though 😂😂 thanks SC 😁
Nice looking bike that and it's a Kwaka so as reliable as all getup, but I feel every cruiser bike wants to grow up and be a Harley.
I really need to try a Harley 🤔
@@TAYM be very careful a proper Harley is very addictive I always thought they were for fully patched up dudes, stoner's (saw Easy Rider as a kid) or gentlemen of a certain age but I rode one as a 20 year old and couldn't get the smile off my face and it was a wet scary road day and no I wasn't a stoner ha ha.

VULCAN RIDERS PAST & NOW!!
I've got a brand new Vulcan
And a tank full of gas.
A beautiful woman behind me
And we're not driving fast.
We're pulling a trailer
With a tent packed inside.
For camping beneath the stars
Just me and my bride.
Come morning we’ll go fishing
Below the damn of Table Rock
Where the big trout all hide
From those anglers who talk.
We’ll bait our hooks with salmon eggs
And catch a pan or two.
Strike a fire and cook a meal
And fear not the morrow’s new
We left our cars at home
Cause we chose to go two wheeling.
As we cling to our best on wheels
It gives us a special feeling!

Interesting bike but not for me. I think if I had to have a bike that style I would go for the Super Meteor. But thats just on looks . 👍
Yes two very different similar bikes 🤔🤔😂😂😂 thanks MW 😁
Why are you shifting at 4k rpm? This is a sport bike engine.
It is most definitely not a sports bike but weather it is or not has nothing to do with why I might change up. I don’t recall specifically but as it is a new bike that can easily cope in 6th at 3000 rpm , it was probably because it isn’t run in or I wasn’t a hurry to get anywhere 😁 thanks KG 😁
