2009 Kawasaki Vulcan® 900 Classic, KAWASAKI VULCAN® 900 CLASSIC: MIDDLEWEIGHT KNOCKOUTBig V-twin power and style with rider-friendly handling and economyGraceful flowing lines, clean looks and robust engine combine to give the Vulcan® 900 Classic an appeal that will charm a wide variety of riders, from new students of the motorcycling life, to experienced veterans seeking a practical and stylish cruiser. After all, what s not to love about a motorcycle that offers the look and feel of a larger V-twin, minus the steep price and inseam-challenging height? It s a win-win for 900 Classic owners; they get a fuel-injected 903cc engine which delivers exceptional roll-on acceleration and a nimble chassis with classic cruiser style. This Vulcan s winning combo will please entry-level riders and anyone seeking class leading power and torque, but wanting more agility than a large-displacement machine. Blessed with plenty of charisma and class-leading ergonomics, the Vulcan 900 matches its powerplant and chassis prowess with equally stunning bodywork. Graceful fenders and fuel tank accentuated by a polished chrome-accented air cleaner and chrome headlight give it the classic cruiser curves.

The 900 Classic is equipped with an auto-fast idle system that uses an rpm feedback relay to ensure a fixed engine speed in all starting conditions. Its easy-to-control fuel-injection makes ultra-low speed riding surprisingly easy, and the abundant low-rpm torque provides thrilling roll-on acceleration.
