The Vulcan 2000’s massive cylinders feature a black matte finish with polished cooling fins.  
Sub-throttle valves and fine atomizing injectors help the Vulcan 2000’s fuel injection provide a smooth, linear power band with increased power and optimum fuel economy.
The Vulcan 2000 rides on bright, cast aluminum 16-inch wheels with a 150/80 front radial tire and a huge, 200/60 rear radial tire. Dual 300mm front disc brakes with four-piston calipers and a single rear disc brake with two-piston caliper bring this big cruiser to smooth, powerful stops.
Vulcan 2000, its big fat and low... I think this bike is « generic », but at the same time it is a custom, and a custom is a custom... 
The fact is that the most impressive thing on this bike is the engine... and oh yes... the dry weight 750 lbs., ha ha...!
