2010 VULCAN 900 CLASSIC

The Vulcan 900 Classic raises the standards for the mid-size cruiser class. It has the largest engine in its class with the highest power and torque that provides tremendous roll-on acceleration to satisfy seasoned riders.The Vulcan 900 Classic’s styling is high-lighted by a long and low chassis. It will fit in with, and outperform, many larger cruisers while offering better value and easier maneuverability.

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 efficient intake tracts feature ports that narrow near the combustion chamber to increase intake flow speed for more efficient filling 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 traffic.

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 Mufflers

Big slash-cut mufflers look great even on the sidestand.

Positive Neutral Finder

Just lift the shift pedal from first gear at a stop to find 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 fine 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 efficient 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 630 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.

32° rake angle for excellent straight line ability.

Wide fork pitch for 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.

Spoke Custom Wheels

• Chromed steel rims and spokes.“Spool-style” polished aluminum front hub.

Wide Rear Tire

180mm rear tire provides added stability while projecting a powerful image.

Wider tire than that found on most large-displacement cruisers.
