2007 Kawasaki Vulcan 900 Classic Pictures & Specs
Engine
- 903cc 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 heavy vibration
Four-valve Cylinder Head
- Better breathing for more power and low-end torque
- Provides maximum valve area for optimum flow
- 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 head combine with liquid cooling to provide exception
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 with maintenance
- Assures greater reliability
- Hidden from view to preserve the engine’s clean, basic look
Dual Slash-Cut Mufflers
- Big slash-cut mufflers look great and contain honeycomb catalyzers to reduce
emissions
Positive Neutral Finder
- Just lift the shift pedal from first gear at a stop to find neutral easy,
every time
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-atomizing 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 hardtail 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 26.8-inch 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
41mm Front Fork
- Excellent rigidity and 5.9 inches of travel
- 32 degrees rake angle for excellent straight line ability
- Wide fork pitch for classic look
Front and Rear Disc Brakes
- A 272mm front and 242mm rear disc have twin-piston calipers for some of the
best stopping power in the class
Custom Spoke 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
