The Vulcan 900 Classic for 2016 - 2017 keeps the fuel-injected 903 cc V-twin and belt drive of the earlier Classic. The page highlights spoked wheels, whitewall tyres, dual slash-cut mufflers and floorboards with a heel-and-toe shifter. It is pitched as a mid-sized cruiser with clean lines, a low seat and a 5.3 gallon tank.
