A carburettor-fed VN1500 cruiser from the early 1990s, with the same 1470 cc liquid-cooled V-twin and four-speed shaft-drive chassis as the late-1980s bike. The page describes the usual cruiser character: low seat, pull-back bars, a chrome air-filter housing, dual exhausts and valanced mudguards. Its low-rpm torque is the main selling point.
