Kawa Vulcan S thoughts

[Axholme Lion]

I'm looking to get a mid range back to get back onto motor cycling after a decade away. Been looking at Z650rs and Xsr700, then the other day came across Vulcan S. I've never been into cruisers as I'm not hooked on the style, but I thought hang on a minute, I'm only 5ft 8in tall and of slim build. This may suit me fine but I've ignored them in the past. Does anyone have any thoughts on these, all the reviews seem to be pretty positive.

Hi

yes they are good and trustworthy, it will be a trusted parallel twin engine (can sound nice if you like that sort) rather than a v twin that most bigger engine snobs will gawp at.

Will be easier to muscle around the yard/pub, cheaper to service and run.

 

I wasn’t particularly into the nakeds or cruisers when I was younger too, but had a few nakeds now and a sensible cruiser going on roadster will probably be the next bike.

an individual changes over time and that is fine, looks stupid when a middle aged man is fighting the gut/aged/bike problems that still think they are 20 and a sports bike is right as it is what they have always had before.

so what I’d say is go and have a look and sit on one, see if it fits you fine.
