2005 Kawasaki Vulcan 750, OLD SCHOOL VULCAN - The mid-size Kawasaki Vulcan 750 motorcycle may live in a world full of heavy-weight cruisers, but it is never outgunned. With its easy-to-ride nature, comfortable stepped seat, torquey liquid-cooled V-twin engine, modern technology and affordable price tag, it embodies the essence of the original "metric cruiser." Powered by a liquid-cooled, double overhead cam 749cc V-twin engine, the Vulcan 750 is powerful and low-maintenance. Hydraulic valve lash adjusters ease maintenance and liquid cooling increases overall engine durability. Plus, the engine itself is rubber-mounted within the double-cradle, high-tensile steel frame to reduce vibration at the handlebar and footpegs. A low-maintenance shaft drive transmits power from the five-speed transmission to the beefy 15-inch rear wheel. Plus, the easy-shifting gearbox features Kawasakis exclusive Positive Neutral Finder, which allows for easy and accurate shifting from first into neutral when stopped. Air-assisted rear shocks with four clicks of rebound damping adjustment offer a smooth and controlled ride, while dual front discs provide reliable stopping power. Full instrumentation, including both coolant-temperature and fuel-level gauges, and a centerstand are standard fare.
