    A bike for 7k with cheap parts and easy ride is better than 18k that you are afraid to ride or scratch.

    CFMOTO were first to offer a free 4yr warranty in the UK Sinnis offer 7yrs Kawasaki offered it at extra cost previously. Great video sounds like you enjoyed the experience.

    They have 3 different seats for the Vulcan S , high, medium and low for different weight for the rider!
    My pegs are in the forward position with the low seat and I'm very comfortable on it!
    I'm 6'3" at 215 lbs

    I'd be interested to see what you think about the rebel.

    what is that bolt just spinning at the back like that? Won't that just shear itself off over time and end up in someones windscreen?

    Sports bikes (crotch rockets) - Go play on the road. Cool for tight turns, wheelies, high speeds, etc. Do so in short spurts, you're body is going to pay for it. The longer the ride, the more uncomfortable it's going to be. Be considerate if you have a passenger. If after 1 hour your butt goes numb, your passenger went numb 30 minutes ago.
    Cruisers - enjoy the ride. Throttle therapy. Clear your head, glide around the road like an ice skater. Just enjoy the magic of the road. 650 - your butt will go number after a couple of hours. 900 - bout 3 hours. 1100 and up, make a day of it. You aren't running on the razor's edge of the road with a cruisers. You are becoming one with the road and enjoying the zen of it.
    Heavy Touring Cruisers - it's a way of life. You spend as little time in a cage (normal vehicle) as possible because you really can't stand them. You adapt and learn how to ride in all weather conditions. (as long as you aren't an elitists prick) You give the wave to anyone on 2 or 3 wheels because you love seeing fellow riders on the road, aka family. (this even includes mopeds and bicycles as they are potential future motorcycle owners).

    You have an aftermarket exhaust on that Vulcan!

    I'm actually waiting for Moto Morini Calibro (bagger version). It's this bike with belt drive and, for me of course, better look.

      Is the price on the same level tho? I've checked it out yesterday and personally not fan of the bright red on it. I wonder if it will have color variants

  • @raymond1181
    @raymond1181 16 днів тому

    Question..... When you buy a new bike... they say there is a break - in period on the first 1000 KM's. why in all the videos I have watched to learn about the bikes, everyone takes the rev's way above the "break-in" levels of 4-6 thousand? Is the break-in part just bull-shit??

    Unbeatable for 7k, the bike can look really good with mods especially a puig batwing. It's a bike you can thrash without losing your licence. The new Indian scout is more than twice the price and only just a tiny bit quicker.

    • @mithrandirthegrey7644
      @mithrandirthegrey7644 28 днів тому

      Top speed is not really a good comparison. The Indian scout bobber has over 100 HP and 83 ft-lbs of torque.

    • @ZXspectrum..
      @ZXspectrum.. 27 днів тому +1

      @mithrandirthegrey7644 I'm not talking top speed...the Indian does 0-60 in 3.8 the vulcan 4.2. The Indian does 0-100 in 13.2 the vulcan 14. No noticeable difference and the vulcan is lighter and easier to throw around, plus more reliable with 4 years warranty. The Indian looks better but not worth twice the price...you could get a vulcan and another bike.

      ​@@ZXspectrum..And this lovely Vulcan is a two seater.

    I think they are quicker than a lot of cruisers but that 180 Ptwin sound just takes me out of it. You should try a Vtwin to compare if the opportunity pops up.

    I have this bike, brilliant little machine. The Cafe screen looks gorgeous but I had to take it off, the booming and buffeting on my helmet felt like a rave because of it to the point that less than an hour on the highway at 110 kph had my ears ringing slightly even with ear plugs, now the air flow is clean and infinetly quieter.
    Get a K&N high flow air filter in there and the engine vibrations will smooth out quite a bit at low RPMs

    • @ZXspectrum..
      @ZXspectrum.. 27 днів тому +1

      Interesting so the filter makes a noticeable difference? If you want a good looking front end instead of the cafe screen I recommend the puig batwing with a wind deflector from amazon mounted on to that..looks good 👍

      TC on a 60+ BHP 500 pound bike?
      Do you need an app for knowing the best time for getting water, too?

    What? It does NOT sound like a cruiser at all. It sounds like you’re about to mow the lawn. Don’t get me wrong. This bike is awesome for what it is - but it definitely has bipolar disorder and doesn’t really know what it wants to be.

    • @ZXspectrum..

      Many people don't want a load obnoxious exhaust and like the sound, each tovtheir own
