As an old rider myself, I never let my boy touch my bike until he got his L. His first time riding big bike is on his first day B Full session, straight ride ER6N.  2 times try the 'titi', then all good to go.  He got another class to go before the JPJ test.
I do not own Vulcan but my ex office mate do. He commute daily from Shah Alam to Jasin, Melaka for the past 2 years, he was transferred 2 years ago. His Vulcan S a bit beaten up, very high mileage but still in pristine condition. He told me it's okay, but he don't like it when there's heavy traffic jam.
How about Rebel 500? 

hmm rebel 500 seems a bit smaller n for same price vulcan s got higher cc, isnt it more worth the money?

What I heard, Rebel 500 price will be RM32k+++ . Ya, price wise, Vulcan S should be value for money.    It's all depends on one's personal taste in this kind of bike.   

Rebel is smaller and way lighter (188kg vs 225kg). Should be easier to handle for smaller rider like me.    I did try my friend's Vulcan S. It's heavy. 

yup in term of weight, Vulcan S is the heaviest among the mid-range bike at 220kg.

vulcan S is kawa's gift to riders , by pricing it jz tad below 30K,

tho it is heavy... n not many ppl like cruiser riding position...

used vulcan s can get @ almost 20K now,

with a few K more for modding, can make it be like this.



for those tht dont like cruiser riding position 

this is a bolt on kit by Mr Martini...

not that difficult to mod...

iinm most of the vulcans I saw come with mid height seat arrangement, i.e. for rider below 6 feet. When I bought mine, the same applies.  However, I did get my leg peg adjusted inward to suit my leg position being a smaller rider.  The adjustment was done for free.  I think the change of seat  for ergofit will cost extra though but i m not sure. You can check it out with the kawasaki dealer shop for better understanding of the adjustment.

tukar high chopper bar like harley.

any idea do u hv to pay extra for the ergo fit for vulcan s in malaysia?

Is it legal to change the general appearance of the bike? JPJ wont get 'mad'?

i think it is illegal,,,

but,,, but but,,,,

the local custom scene is really happening these days...

i've been folowing all those custom shops on ig fb .... etc...

everybody is doing it... 

Egrofit is around rm1200 or so. I have installed them, reduced reach option. Handle bar, seat and gear switch rod.

isn't this bullshit?
i remember that when vulcan s was announced, it was stated that the adjustment is free.
but when it comes to malaysia, need to pay pula
