KAWASAKI Vulcan 2000 Classic LT (2006-2007) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 2006, alongside the base model, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Kawasaki Vulcan 2000 Classic LT, a cruiser motorcycle with several additional touring-oriented accessories.

Compared to the base model, the Classic LT version came equipped with a large windscreen for better wind protection, a passenger backrest for more comfort, and side-mounted leather saddlebags for extra storage.

Besides that, the LT version packed the same standard features as the base model, including a round headlight up front, a teardrop-shaped fuel tank with an integrated instrument panel, a two-piece dual seat, a dual exhaust system with two long silencers mounted on the right side, and seven-spoke lightweight aluminum wheels.

It was built around a double cradle steel frame with a 49 mm telescopic fork on the front, offering 150 mm wheel travel, and an adjustable shock absorber on the rear with 100 mm wheel travel, offering optimum suspension performance and handling.

Two 300 mm discs with four-piston calipers on the front wheel and a 320 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper on the rear wheel achieved the braking power.

In the performance department, the 2006 Kawasaki Vulcan 2000 Classic LT had its heartbeat set by a massive 2,053cc four-stroke V-twin liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 103 hp at 4,800 rpm and 191 Nm (141 lb-ft) torque at 3,000 rpm.
