2011 Kawasaki Vulcan® 900 Custom for Sale

41 mm Front Fork

• 33 degrees of rake and 7.2-in. of trail for excellent straight line stability
• Offers excellent rigidity and 5.9-in. of travel

4-valve Cylinder Head

• Single overhead cam design is simple, lightweight and practical
• Provides maximum valve area for optimum flow, creating more power and low-end torque
• Long intake tracts narrow near the combustion chamber to increase intake flow speed for more efficient filling, increased torque and better low-end response

903 cc V-twin SOHC Engine

• Rubber mounted to reduce engine vibration at all speeds
• Smooth and reliable engine tuned to deliver a healthy dose of torque at low rpm
• Gear-driven balancer allows the use of a single-pin crankshaft without excessive vibration

Belt Drive

• Low maintenance and low noise
• Lower unsprung weight than shaft drive to improve ride quality and suspension action

Custom Cast 21-in. Front Wheel

• Tapered and flanged in two directions, every line and surface of each 3D spoke is exquisitely curved
• The wheel’s 18 “spokes” are arranged in pairs

Custom Features

• Forward-mounted footpegs instead of floorboards add to the custom image and improve rider control
• One-piece “gunfighter” style seat is designed for comfortable rider and passenger accommodation and a custom-style look
• Clean headlight design is compact and isolated without a central fork cover or headlamp bar
• Chromed headlamp, headlamp mount, lower triple clamp and turn signals as well as footpegs, shift lever and rear brake lever
• Standard toe-operated shift lever instead of a heel-toe shifter compliments the forward footpegs for a more open rider position
• Sporty, straight-style handlebar adds to the bike’s custom styling. Instead of handlebar clamps, twin tubes elegantly curve back from the upper triple clamp. Both the handlebar and twin tubes are completely chromed.
• Small, minimalist fender and lack of front fork covers also contribute to the slender appearance of the front end
• Matte Black frame emphasizes the chrome finishing

Double Cradle Frame

• Triangular swingarm has a hardtail appearance, but utilizes a single shock hidden beneath the seat
• Fork offset and frame geometry combine for light, low-effort handling at ultra-low speeds
• Very rigid, large-diameter box section backbone allows space for a larger fuel tank, and offers high stability and lightweight handling at low speeds
• Long wheelbase contributes to highway stability
• Long and low chassis for minimal seat height, maximum visual impact

Dual Slash-cut Mufflers

• Big slash-cut mufflers look great and contain emission reducing honeycomb catalyzers

Electronic Fuel Injection

• Fine-atomizing fuel injectors produce a fine fuel mist for optimal acceleration, combustion and fuel consumption
• Superb performance and rideability thanks to dual throttle bodies with sub-throttles
• The ECU-controlled sub-throttles are located behind the main throttle valve, allowing the DFI® system to provide more precise throttle response, similar to a constant velocity carburetor

Front and Rear Disc Brakes

• A 300 mm front and 270 mm rear disc are both gripped by twin-piston calipers for some of the best stopping power in the class

Key Features

• 903 cc, liquid-cooled, V-twin offers the optimal balance of performance and maneuverability
• Efficient and stylish belt drive for long life
• 5.3-gal. fuel tank is largest in class
• Fat 180-series rear tire is largest in class
• Forward-mounted foot controls for laid-back riding position
• Stylish instrumentation includes convenient fuel gauge
• Digital fuel injection for precise throttle response and improved fuel economy
• Stylish cast wheels – solid-look rear and “twin-spoke” front

Liquid and Air Cooling

• Maintains consistent engine temperatures for long engine life and sustained power
• Automatic fan helps keep things cool
• Finned cylinders and heads combine with liquid cooling for exceptional thermal control

Positive Neutral Finder

• Just lift the shift pedal from first gear at a stop to easily find neutral, every time

Sculpted Bodywork

• Fuel tank features a twin valley design, with a dynamic tension and presence all its own
• Designed to be pleasing to both the eye and to the touch, the tank is composed exclusively of curves with constantly varying radii; the twin valley design theme continues to the rear fender and its hand-sculpted contours
• Bottom of the rear fender features a relatively straight cut, to balance the lines of the motorcycle

Tank-mounted Speedometer with Turn Signal Indicators and Caution Lamps

• Compact design matches the bike’s clean look
• Provides riders crucial information at a glance

Wide Rear Tire

• 180 mm rear tire provides added stability while projecting a powerful image
• Custom cast 15-in. rear wheel contrasts the “light,” tall front wheel
• Wider tire than that found on most large-displacement cruisers
