The Vulcan 900 Classic looks and feels

larger than a middleweight thanks to its

flowing lines, large classic-styled round

headlight and wide front forks.

An advanced digital fuel injection system

featuring dual 34mm throttle bodies offer

exceptional response, great acceleration and

good fuel economy. And the fast idle feature

means no more waiting for a cold engine to

warm up on those brisk early mornings.

The V-Twin engine employs four valves per

cylinder head for better breathing that adds

up to more power and stronger low-end

torque for this middleweight cruiser.

2

The 55 cubic-inch V-Twin engine delivers

linear torque from very low engine rpm

that translates into strong acceleration

in the midrange. A gear-driven balancer

counteracts the pulses of the 55-degree

single-pin crank V-Twin.

The Vulcan 900 Classic looks and feels like

its bigger brothers with its large folding

floorboards with a heel/toe shifter, a wide,

relaxed handlebar, deeply padded seat, a

centrally located speedometer with warning

lamps, chrome slash-cut mufflers, Positive

Neutral Finder, 5-speed transmission and

traditional-style round headlight.

3

The clean, quiet and reliable belt drive

system transfers the 900 Classic’s

strong V-Twin power to the ground

smoothly and efficiently while the

hardtail look of the rear end adds

comfort and style.

Up front, the 41mm front fork with 32

degrees of rake and a wide fork pitch give

the 900 Classic a bigger bike look.

Combine that with deep, rich paint, miles

of chrome and an ultra-low 26.8-inch seat

height and you have a classic cruiser ready

to ride in style.

Everything you need for cruising and nothing you don’t—that’s the mission of the Vulcan

®

900 Classic. So whether you’re new to

motorcycling or a seasoned pro, your first trip on one of our most affordable V-Twins will prove its worth. Crank up the 55 cubic-inch

engine and hear the steady beat echoing from the dual slash-cut mufflers. Now pull onto the road, wind through the gears and feel the

solid handling and silky ride cast their spells. The sun glints off the deeply chromed headlight, swept-back handlebars and fuel tank-

mounted instrument panel while the fuel-injected engine rumbles beneath you. Hard to believe this is a middleweight cruiser you can

enjoy stock—or personalize with Kawasaki Genuine Accessories. Your passenger appears right on time, and climbs aboard for the ride

into town. It’s a nice day, all right—and the night’s going to be even better.
