• Dual panel lid construction with embossed Vulcan logo detail.
• One-half inch diameter chrome plated brass stud accents.

24-Month Warranty

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 for that classic V-twin rumble without the heavy vibration.
Liquid and Air Cooling
• Finned cylinders and heads combine with liquid cooling to provide exceptional 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.
Rubber-Mounted Engine
• Eliminates engine vibration at all speeds.
Positive Neutral Finder
• Just lift the shift pedal from first gear at a stop to select neutral easily, every time.
Digital Fuel Injection
• Dual throttle bodies with dual throttle valves 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.
Kevlar-Reinforced Belt Drive
• Lower unsprung weight than shaft drive to improve ride quality and suspension action.
• More efficient so more power reaches the rear wheel, compared to shaft drive.
• Cleaner and lower maintenance than chain drive.
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.
