Kawasaki Vulcan 900

The Kawasaki Vulcan 900 has a top speed of 175 km/h (estimated; note: governed more by wind resistance than engine limits), produces 50 hp and weighs 272 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.5/10.

川崎火神900 Classic(VN900B)于2006年推出,是一款中型巡洋舰,旨在在广受欢迎的900cc细分市场中与本田影子和雅马哈V-Star 950等竞争对手竞争。它采用带燃油喷射功能的液冷式903cc V型双缸发动机,融合了现代可靠性和经典的巡洋舰风格,并配有宽挡泥板和辐条轮。该车型自发布以来基本保持不变,因其舒适的人体工程学设计、便捷的动力传输以及对初学者和中级骑手的强大价值主张而备受赞誉。

买家应该知道什么

🔧

Rock-Solid Reliability

The Vulcan 900's fuel-injected V-twin engine is widely regarded as one of the most dependable in its class, requiring minimal maintenance beyond routine oil changes and valve checks. Many owners report 50,000+ miles with no major mechanical issues.

⚠️

Watch the Final Drive

The belt drive system, while low-maintenance, should be carefully inspected for cracks or fraying on used models — a neglected belt replacement can run $200–$400 in parts and labor. Always ask for belt service history before buying.

💰

Strong Resale Value

The Vulcan 900 holds its value unusually well for a mid-size cruiser, often retaining 60–70% of its value after three years due to steady demand and Kawasaki's reputation for durability. This also means used prices stay firm, so don't expect steep discounts.

7.8/10

"防弹初级巡洋舰,很少让自己感到尴尬。"

903cc V-twin 可从大约 2,000 转/分的转速干净利落,3,500 转的超大扭矩峰值让城市骑行真正放松——你很少会寻找合适的装备。座椅高度为 695 毫米,适合身材矮小的乘客,10,000 英里后,人体工程学设计让人感觉经过深思熟虑,而不是受到损害。老实说,最大的挫折点是高速公路:时速超过130 km/h时,穿过杠杆和钉子的振动会让人感到疲倦,而当你需要果断地以极速超车时,50马力几乎没有储备。它的实际重量也足以承受——如果你把它丢在停车场,272 千克的自行车需要拿起,而新骑手也会如此。

优点

+扭矩丰富、耐受的低转速发动机
+坚如磐石的长期可靠性
+座椅高度低,令人自信
+舒适的直立巡洋舰人体工程学设计
+宽阔的装饰范围适合不同的口味

缺点

130 km/h 以上的令人不快
因其功率输出而沉重
高速公路的过路力量感觉很紧张
17 年来最低限度的更新
最适合: 新车手想要可靠的巡洋舰 跳过 if: 你优先考虑公路巡回演出

New cruiser riders wanting reliable, low-drama miles

"Dependable, honest cruiser that punches above its used asking price."

$4,500-$6,500 used

The Vulcan 900 Classic is Kawasaki doing exactly what they're good at — building a reliable, unpretentious cruiser that won't embarrass you at the lights or at the mechanic. The 903cc V-twin pulls cleanly from low revs, the ergonomics suit a wide range of riders, and these things simply don't break down. Buy one with 20,000 miles and sleep fine about it. Genuinely bulletproof powerplant. That said, know what you're getting. It's not a Harley in terms of soul or resale value, and it's not trying to be. Handling is soft and wallowy past 70mph, the stock seat turns punishing after two hours, and the chrome bits on cheaper examples rust faster than you'd hope. Check the final drive belt carefully — a worn one is a surprise $300 bill you don't want. Used prices are honest right now, typically $4,500-$6,500 for clean 2006-2013 examples. Negotiate hard on anything over 15k miles or with cosmetic damage. Strong candidate for a first big bike.
