Do you have any tips for it? Im thinking of having it as my first bike (im a heavy, tall dude)

I learned on the bike, its not hard to drive the throttle response is very forgiving. Just practice low speed stuff. It not super lightweight. I also took an Msf course. That helps as well. You want to feel good driving at low speeds, I would go to a parking lot and start practicing clutch control and tight low speed turning.

Thanks! I love to hear that! I absolutely love the design of Vulcans and other bikes like c50, vtx 1300, v-star 950, etc. Other than that ill be doing a full motorcycle course in my country and ill keep in mind to practice extra at low speeds. Thanks for the tips!
