2010 VULCAN 900 CUSTOM
This factory-built custom motorcycle stands out from the
crowd with its narrow front tire mounted on a 21-inch wheel.
The cast wheel features spokes whose shape was handcrafted
to form an elegant three-dimensional double-anged design,
contrasting with the 15-inch solid cast rear wheel with wide
tire, minimalist headlamp, straight bars and elegantly sculpted
contours.
Based on the Vulcan 900 Classic, which raised the standards
for mid-size cruisers with its class-leading displacement and
power, the 2010 Vulcan 900 Custom with two new colours
offers cruiser enthusiasts an alternative cruising style.
903cm³ V-Twin, SOHC Engine
• Tuned to deliver lots of torque from low rpm.
• Smooth and reliable.
• Gear-driven balancer allows use of single pin crankshaft
without the heavy vibration.
4-Valve Cylinder Head
• Better breathing for more power and low-end torque.
• Single overhead cam design is simple, lightweight, and
practical.
• Extremely efcient intake tracts feature ports that narrow
near the combustion chamber to increase intake ow speed
for more efcient lling and increased torque.
• Long intake tracts for great low-end response.
Liquid and Air Cooling
• Finned cylinders and heads combine with liquid cooling to
provide exceptional thermal control.
• Maintains consistent engine temperatures for long engine life
and sustained power.
• Automatic fan keeps things cool even in trafc.
• Includes temperature warning light.
Concealed Automatic Cam Chain Tensioner
• Maintains precise valve timing without maintenance.
• Assures greater reliability.
• Hidden from view to preserve the engine’s clean, basic look.
Rubber-Mounted Engine
• Eliminates engine vibration at all speeds.
Dual Slash-Cut Mufers
• Big slash-cut mufers look great even on the sidestand.
Positive Neutral Finder
• Just lift the shift pedal from rst gear at a stop to nd
neutral easily, every time.
• A Kawasaki exclusive.
Electronic Fuel Injection
• Dual throttle bodies with sub throttles provide optimum
performance and rideability. The sub throttles, located behind
the main throttle valve, are controlled by the ECU so that the
DFI system retains more precise throttle response, similar to a
constant velocity carburetor.
• Fine-atomising fuel injectors produce a ne fuel mist for
better acceleration, combustion and fuel consumption.
Belt Drive
• Lower unsprung weight than shaft drive to improve ride
quality and suspension action.
• More efcient so more power reaches the rear wheel.
• Low maintenance and low noise.
Double Cradle Frame
• Large-diameter box section backbone is very rigid, allows
use of a larger fuel tank, and helps contribute to high stability
and lightweight handling at low speeds.
•Triangular swingarm appears to be a hard tail design, but
acts on a single shock hidden beneath the seat.
• Long and low for minimal seat height, maximum visual
impact.
• Fork offset and frame geometry combine for light, low-effort
handling at ultra-low speeds.Long wheelbase adds to highway
stability.
Low Stepped Seat
• Ultra-low 635 mm seat height allows riders to easily plant
both-feet on the ground at stops.
• Laid-back riding comfort for two.
Tank-Mounted Speedometer with Turn Signal Indicators and
Caution Lamps
• Gives you the information you need at-a-glance.
• Compact design complements the bike’s clean look
Push-to-Cancel Turn Signals
• No fumbling, just a simple push on the switch cancels the
turn signals.
41mm Front Fork
• Excellent rigidity and 150 mm inches of travel.
• 33° rake angle for excellent straight line ability.
• Wide fork pitch for a classic look.
Front and Rear Disc Brakes
• A 300mm front and 270mm rear disc have twin-piston
calipers for some of the best stopping power in the class.
21-inch Front Wheel
• Designed by hand, the cast wheel’s 18 “spokes” are tapered and
anged in two directions for an exquisite custom appearance.
• Narrow prole for that custom American chopper look.
Wide Rear Tire
• 180mm rear tire mounted on a solid 15-inch cast wheel provides
added stability while projecting a powerful image.
• Wider tire than that found on most large-displacement cruisers.
