2004 Kawasaki VN2000 Vulcan Classic , The first production motorcycle engine to break the two-liter barrier, the 2053cc pushrod V-twin in the Vulcan 2000 is more than 250cc larger than the next-biggest motorcycle V-twin, Honda's VTX1800, and makes 1500-class twins suddenly seem like middleweights. But what does 125 cubic inches in the engine room give you? Well, bragging rights certainly, and a massive dollop of power to be sure, though perhaps not the tire-smoking, arm-wrenching shot of acceleration that you might anticipate if you think that displacement automatically delivers horsepower. However, you get the kind of power that delights riders who like a motorcycle that rumbles down the highway at a relaxed pace but can still deliver a strong lunge when you roll on the throttle. Both fourth and fifth gears are overdrives, so the engine is turning only about 2250 rpm at 60 mph in fifth. But at that rpm, it is already making a massive 120 foot-pounds of torque, just off the 121-foot-pound peak, which it reaches just above 85 mph. When you roll it on, the engine gets up and chugs. We just installed a new set of tires both front, and rear!! The front turn signals have been removed, it still has the rear ones. The stock seat has given way for a "Corbin" seat, with a removable drivers, or passenger backrest. Cobra pipes, WOW they sound great!! Also the stock bar risers have been replaced with aftermarket ones, that is why the chrome cover is not on the headlight housing. There is some rust on the front fender. Yes, there are a few flaws, that is why it is priced below book at only 3995.00. Looking for a deal on a powerhouse bike, check this one out!!!
