2007 Kawasaki Vulcan® 900 Custom for Sale

Additional Features

• Kawasaki’s engineers and designers concentrated on delivering a motorcycle that provides customized appearances usually reserved for more expensive two-wheel offerings. The perfect blending of the low, wide rear, featuring a 15-inch cast wheel and 180 mm tire, with the less weighty trimmed-down look of the front, will give the rider the feeling of sitting on a motorcycle made for him (or her) alone. Crafted to highlight its elegance as much as it’s gutsy, fuel-injected V-Twin power, the Vulcan 900 Custom is sure to broaden the appeal of this family of Kawasaki cruisers.
• Employing its own version of design minimalism, Kawasaki has produced a cruiser that is just enough of everything that is right. Even the visual contrast of the front and rear wheels is heightened by the simplicity and subtlety of the fuel tank. Its carefully molded and delicately curved shape brings a visual connection that literally ties together the highly customized approach of the Vulcan 900 Custom.
• Perhaps one of the most striking examples of Kawasaki’s determination to provide the cruising rider with a distinctive look matching this motorcycle’s "custom" designation are the "spokes" of its large diameter front wheel. Arranged in pairs, they were hand-designed for a special visual appeal. And, while 21-inch cast wheels are somewhat rare in the custom-building world, they will be found on every Vulcan 900 Custom cruiser delivered from Kawasaki showrooms.
• This chrome-laden cruiser is more than just good looking. Like its other 903cc family members, the 900 Custom’s big-bike feel is generated by a powerplant that pulls cleanly around town and out-accelerates anything else in its class out on the highways, where torque rules the road.
• Whether moving at highway speeDual Sport towarDual Sport a weekend getaway, or tooling through local streets on the way to work, the Vulcan 900 Custom’s light, sporty handling will keep it at the front of the pack in the eyes of knowledgeable motorcyclists.
