KAWASAKIVN1700 Classic 2009 - 2010

　　The Kawasaki Vulcan was a series of touring and custom motorcycles made by Kawasaki from 1984 until the Present (2023). The bikes used the "VN" designation and were primarily powered by V-twin engines with displacement ranging from 125 to 2.053cc.

　　In 2009, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Kawasaki VN1700 Classic, a touring motorcycle that packed a ride-by-wire system for better controllability. Also, the maker made available the Classic LT, Nomad, Voyager, and Vaquero versions with the same engine but different elements.

　　The 2009 machine was fitted from the factory with standard features, such as a round headlight up front with a chromed housing, a teardrop-shaped fuel tank with an integrated instrument panel, a one-piece dual seat, a dual exhaust system, and ten-spoke lightweight aluminum wheels.

　　The 2009 Kawasaki VN900 Classic was powered by a 1,700cc four-stroke V-twin liquid-cooled engine fed by a fuel injection system, delivering 74 hp at 5,000 rpm and 136 Nm (100 lb-ft) torque at 2,750 rpm.

　　Suspension-wise, the bike packed a 43 mm telescopic fork on the front and side-mounted four-way adjustable shock absorbers on the rear, delivering optimum suspension performance and handling capabilities.

　　In the braking department, the bike packed two 300 mm discs with dual-piston calipers on the front wheel and a 300 mm disc with a two-piston caliper on the rear wheel, offering optimum stopping power.
