Overview
You are seduced by the Vulcan 900 Classic, but you would like a little more style, more attitude. The Special Edition is there to offer you an alternative. Visually, the two-tone paintwork alternates with dark trim elements. Chrome still marks its presence, on the exhaust pipes, the turn signals and the mirrors but it recedes on either side. Matte black has thus taken over the forks, cylinder heads, headlight, side covers, air filter and branches of the rear mudguard. The classic side remains with the spoked wheels, the wide handlebar, the V-twin engine and the faux hard-tail frame. The little extra: a specific logo on the fuel tank. It was possible to perfect the livery by opting for whitewall tires like on the American Vulcan 900... of 2015.
