Is it time to hit the road again? Intrepid travelers need look no farther than a fully-dressed Vulcan® 2000 Classic LT cruiser. The popular Vulcan 2000 Classic LT is a feature-packed traveling machine, ready to roam straight from the showroom floor.
Building upon the performance inherited from the top-of-the-line 2,053cc Vulcan cruiser family, the Classic LT pushes the traditional cruiser potential higher with extra attributes appealing to those more interested in weekend jaunts than simple weekday commuting. Standard features on this stylish cruiser include saddlebags, passenger floorboards and backrest, and a windshield.
The striking, top-grain, reinforced cowhide saddlebags are the core of the Classic LT’s touring package. The leather is carefully selected to minimize flaws and deep-dyed to prevent scraping off the finish. These ideally-sized bags feature a slant-top opening held shut by two 1.5-inch wide leather straps fitted with chrome buckles and stealth quick-release fasteners. Rolled and riveted lid tops along with metal reinforced upper edges on the bags help maintain shape and keep unwanted moisture out of the bags.
Comfortable seats for the rider and passenger are a must on a tourer. The Classic LT offers both along with a backrest to keep the passenger relaxed and smiling as the miles tick by. Detailed with chrome plated brass studs to match the bags, the classically styled seat and backrest blend attractive visual appearance with comfort.
More touring pleasure comes from the thick, optically correct, acrylic plastic windscreen. It offers adjustable height and delivers serious wind protection and smooth airflow around the rider and passenger.
Power for this stylish motorcycle comes from a massive 2,053cc V-Twin fuel-injected adrenaline pump. The muscular engine sports a 103 x 123.2mm bore and stroke, forged pistons, alloy-steel connecting rods, a huge 220mm flywheel, and dual cams located within the one-piece crankcase.
Right-side pushrods actuate four valves per cylinder and help reduce the 125 cubic inch engine’s height; allowing a low center of gravity and relatively low seat height. Hydraulic valve lash adjusters automatically maintain zero valve clearance and provide a smoother, quieter operation.
Its chrome air cleaner cover is nestled between the black matte finished cylinders – artfully contrasting the polished metallic cooling fins, which manage the temperatures for the bottom three-quarters of the engine. The top quarter of the V-twin engine is liquid cooled. Further cooling assistance comes via the oil and water pumps incorporated in the engine and transmission – which also serves as the oil tank.
Feeding the big V-twin is a fuel injection system with dual 46mm throttle bodies and sub throttle valves, all managed by an electronic control unit (ECU). Included in the Vulcan 2000 Classic LT’s advanced electronics is a gear position sensor in the transmission that sends signals to the ECU, which refines the fuel injection volume and ignition timing. This performance improvement combined with an iridium spark plug ignition system, the sub-throttle valves and fine atomizing injectors deliver a sharp throttle response, big power and optimum fuel economy in a smooth, linear powerband.
Final drive to the rear wheel is provided by smooth, quiet and low maintenance belt drive. That classic V-twin rumble from the Vulcan 2000 Classic’s dual polished mufflers – thanks to its single-pin crankshaft – will delight cruiser enthusiasts. Vibration dampening dual counter balancers and rubber engine mounts mean long sojourns can still be broad smile inducing.
The engine is a member of the Vulcan’s steel, double-cradle frame, which has a large-diameter, box-section single-tube backbone. A simple but elegant rear steel tube swingarm suspension with a direct-action single shock provides 3.9 inches of travel, and includes spring preload and rebound adjustment. Up front, a large 49mm fork provides more precise steering feedback and 5.9 inches of travel.
The Vulcan 2000 Classic LT includes a bullet-style headlight, chrome instrument panel with a large-face speedometer — mounted on a stretched, 5.5-gallon fuel tank, the V-shaped panel keeps the rider informed with an LCD display and warning lamps.
This Vulcan motorcycle rides on bright, cast aluminum 16-inch wheels with a 150/80 front radial tire and a wide, 200/60 rear radial tire. Two beefy 300mm front disc brakes with four-piston calipers and a single rear disc brake with a two-piston caliper bring this show to smooth, powerful stops.
