How many gears available in Kawasaki Vulcan S?

Vulcan has a surprisingly good maneuverability for a bike of its size and weight. I (weighing just 65 KG) can weave through City traffic without much difficulty. However, note that the maneuverability is less than that of Thunderbird and Karizma (the other two bikes that I have). Secondly, its long turning radius makes it a little difficult to take U turns. Yes, its Low ground clearance is a bit of concern in cities. You need to be extra careful when you\'re approaching Speed bumps. If your plan is to use it mostly for City commute, Vulcan may not be a good option. If you plan to use it for a mix of City and Long rides ( frequent or occasional), you can go for it. In my case, I needed to buy a Cruiser in 6 - 7 Lac Price range and Vulcan turned out to bt the best option ( Kawasaki's engines are much more refined than Harley's or Hyosung's )

Yes, me and my wife always go on rides together. We have completed rajasthan tour of 2500+km in 20 days. Ratlam to dehradun and nearby hill top locations (3000+ kms), Ratpam to pachmari (1500+kms) Ratlam to alibaug, goa and nearby areas ( 3500+kms) Still I will point out few things. The seats (rider and pillion both) of vulcan are bit hard, especially as the width of pillion seat is not enough, it gives lower back and Gluteus. Even for rider seat after few hours even with interval rests, the rider starts feeling stress in lower back, Shoulders, Scapula and Gluteus too. (Usually shoulder and scapula pains started after 10hrs of rides)For that I started using air seats for me and my wife, aditionally we both started using level 2 riding jackets, that gave both of us support on back and shoulders, padded gloves as after long time driving due to vibrations forearms starts to pain.So finally We are riding really good and the longest performed ride of ours with about 32 kg luggage was dehradun to ratlam which took us about 18 hrs (including 10-20 minutes rest about every 1 ot 1.30 hrs.
