    My first and only bike is a 2015 Vulcan Classic 900, and I love it. No matter what bikes I end up having in my life, I'll always have the Vulcan. I'm never going to give it up. 😁

    Coming from two sport bikes I remember the first time I wrote a cruiser I was yelling and laughing in my helmet the whole time! Just a different feel and attitude to the ride Loved it.

    I have a 2014, same bike. It is the best under 60 mph motorcycle on the planet with Michelin commander tires, period.

    2021 model purchased last year as a leftover
    I ride 2 up with my better half
    She's only about 125 lbs and I'm pushing 200 lbs
    That bike pulls our 325 lbs around all day no problem

    "5th is too high" is something I have never heard from a Vulcan rider going > 50mph, as most of us are trying to shift out of 5th into a non-existent 6th gear. 😄 Nice video, I love the excitement.

    I'm just taking my first steps into the biker world, always dreamt of it as a kid but grew up in near-poverty and never was able to ride anything but pedal bikes. Now I'm 37, at a point where I'm (relatively, thanks canadian government) financially stable, and I inherited some cash from my grandmother. I purchased a 2011 Vn900 custom special edition last fall and i'm absolutely dying to get out and ride! I took the motorcycle beginner's course in 2022, rode a honda rebel 300 for most of it (god what an awful seat!), but i did take the opportunity to make a few laps around the parking lot on a ninja 125 that they had. Only positive opinion i have on crotch rockets is how easily they corner. Other than that, I don't like the riding position, i dont like the sound they make, hell I dont even like the way they look. This guy's a cruiser rider, any day

    Glad you touched on the freeway experience. My Honda Shadow 1100 is a torquey bike and cruises backroads great, but at 75+ you're hanging on for sure. Gets tiring after 15 20 minutes. Got a Memphis Shades batwing and now can cruise at 80 with one hand resting on my knee. How guys with apes and no shield do it I'll never know.

  • @ronaldroberts8515

    Thanx for sharing and congrats on your bike. I have a Yamaha raider that I've had for several years and I put cobra swept pipes with fuel controller on it and luv it lol. So if u have money maybe look into changing the exhaust or some guys drill holes in the baffles or just remove them but anyway hit the highway n be safe.

    Originally it had a wind shield. I have a 2009 Classic (not LT) With a Memphis Shades removable windshield. It's nice because you can pop it off for around town .Only takes 1/2 a minute to put back on. They also make lowers to match. Had it up to 85 in Texas and no control issues. The stock seat is fine for a couple hours. Put a Mustang w/back rest on mine and can ride all day. Throttle lock and Grip Puppies and you're good to go with the Big Bikes that cost way more $ . Took the Cobra 2-1 pipes off and replaced w/ stock pipes so I could ride all day. You deffinetly picked the right bike!

  • @dukedonotti

    It's crazy how triggered some people get over sound issues, with their incessant bitching and complaining if someone makes a noise that sets them off. So many times I see vlogger's apologizing profusely for wind or some other sound that enters into the video. I say fuck em. Great video and new subscriber here.

    Remember horsepower is a theory. Torque is absolute. Thats what vtwins are all about. Manipulating the low end torque. Most vtwins peak at 2700-3500 rpm. Thats where you want to shift at and cruise at. In 5th gear on this bike thats 65mph. Horsepower is of no concern on a vtwin. All the ooomph is on the low end

    J'avais une kawa vn 900 classic 2012 que j'ai adoré ; après un road trip de 5500 kms en harley, j'ai acheté une héritage classic, quelle différence, que ce soit en termes de confort, d'accélération, maniabilité , mais 3 fois plus chère!

    Everybody do the same kind of "review". Not even a walkarround to see the bike a little bit.

    Get used to going 55 mph because that’s the top speed on that bike.

      No it isn't 🤣 mine is very comfortable sitting at 80mph

      I have a 07 nomad 1600 I can cruise at 85 90 all day, and I'm sure that 900 can get up there as well, only crouch rocket riders want that need for speed at every stop light😅

    • @crash121973
      @crash121973 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I had a 900 for about a year. Will cruise at 80mph all day if u don’t mind the buzzing but it really is a fantastic bike.👍

    • @johnmydosh1694
      @johnmydosh1694 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Your right. The bike is missing a 6th gear and optional ABS or it would be perfect. When you go through the gears your left foot looks for 6th gear at 62 mph, but no.

    • @stevebeard4117
      @stevebeard4117 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Mine too! Was riding in Texas last month. Most roads there are 75-80. No sweat!@@ElJohno83
