Thanks Bill.Sorry it took so long to reply. Yes it's a Vulcan S.Same engine with different tunes used in the 650 Ninja,Versys and ER6N,but the Vulcan S has forward scontrols which I need for my kneeThree positions for foot pegs [just change the rear brake
bar]Maybe they copied a V rod style a bit.I've ordered a Corbin for it through Rapid Edward.The stock seat is better than the America's was but Still aafter a 100kms or so without a stop it becomes torture

Thanks Rich it's about the best bang for the buck in Thailand IMO.Everything else is 5 K or more than Australia.This was about the same price as Australia.

Yes the Vulcan S.
I wanted a 1200 Speedmaster in Thailand and keep my America in Australia;[Hope you got the geography ] But Triumph are crazy prices.30,000 A$ in Thailand compared with 21,000A$ in Australia.
