Planning on competing in my first BJJ tournament in PA on September 28th :tup:

Okay, I could never remember cause I never saw a brand logo and didn't remember Vulcan being a "brand" name.

Good lookin bike though. :tup:


Where? Admission or free to spectate?

Vulcan is Kawa's cruiser line, is all.

She looks decent, especially for her age. A few little rust spots on things like bolt heads, but she's quite clean, otherwise.

Gonna post up a FS thread?

Yeah, I was going to tonight. No new pictures of it, though.

I thought about maybe looking into riding, then Aniceh told me about all the requirements for the M Class license and fuuuuuuuuck no. :bowrofl:

...what requirements? You get a permit, you learn to ride, you take the practical (or you take the MSF BRC), and you get your license. Voila. It's easy.

Not to pitch my own bike, but it's dirt cheap and a fantastic learner bike. Just saying.

If I even HAD the money to consider it, I might, especially coming from you, I'd trust it was in good condition. But I don't have the $$. :ugh2:


She was talking about how you have to have it in x gear at a light to be ready for if someone behind you doesn't stop so you can pull out in traffic to get hit by someone else... :ugh2:

Just the different quirks of the bike schools vs normal drivers schools and such.

If I were going to get a bike... This is the "look" I would want:

OBVIOUSLY not a beginner bike at all, but that's the style I'd want. Also really like the colors.

Yeah, money is kinda important lol.

Yes, 1st gear at a light. Just like an MT car lol. It's nothing difficult, it becomes second nature. You just become a better rider/driver for all of the time you put into it.

Bike schools are easy. Just takes time.

Of course it is. :icon17:

It was interesting because I would have thought the gearing would have been RN12345 just like normal cars, but its instead 1N2345 with R in there somewhere?


So you have to pull the pedal up with different forces to engage neutral or 2nd gear... Lame. :p

Downington, PA. How far is that from you? For spectators it's like $10-15.

2 hours by the map... Actual roads, closer to 3 hours.

You can get that "style" without going crazy. You could get a 500 or 600cc, such as this.

Of those two, I like the center exit exhaust on the 600 better. But I prefer Yamaha over Honda.
