The new VN 900 Custom is a motorcycle who do not pass unnoticed. The low seat, the massive rear tyre and its full metal raer wheel contrasting with the light design of the front end. Stunning aesthetic divide...

The design of the VN 900 was though by designer « by handdle bar view » and off course externally too. Seat on the saddle the rider notice immediately the elevated front end and the more low rear. The handdle bar narrow, and sportive places the hands higher and more ahead.
From an outside view, the light front end and strong rear made an impression of dynamism.

Aesthetic features :
-Small and naked front light.

The Lamp iand its frame, bliners and T-square (fork) are chromed.
-The light and minimalist mud guard and the protection less front fork also contribute to the design purety of the front end.
-The handdle bar is chromed.
-The big rear wheel, 15 inches is in opposition with the higher of the front wheel. The fact that it is a full metal wheel give more strength impression.
-The big rear tyre 180mm, give also to the rear end a power and massive aspect, renforced by the divide between the front end more light and thin.

Engine :

The Engine is a twin cylinder 903cc and is liquid cooled.
Further developped to give more torque at low Rpm, its handling is custom style, not so much power but good torque.
It is a cruiser and its performances are suitable to its weight and pretensions.

Its weakness for some of you will be its trumps for some others, in my opinion the look of the VN 900 is better than the VN 2000 for exemple.

The front wheel is very beautiful...
This is a cruiser, without big pretensions, and I think it did the half of its way, because it is aesthetically well done.

Price : 10 975 $(US) (european price)

About www.motorcyclists-online.com English version:
At the beginning, in 2001, www.motorcyclists-online.com was an exclusive French Motorcycle website. Now, since September 2005, it has become bilingual: English speaking people are welcome !
We do believe, at www.motorcyclists-online.com, that linguistic boundaries are not a problem when we share the same passion for bikes.
We are currently working on translating all articles and contents, to finish the UK/US version. You will certainly notice some bugs or translation errors: please do not hesitate to advise us by e-mail, Private Message or by posting in the Forum. Your help is welcome !
For the moment, articles which haven’t been human translated are automatically machine translated, which I must confess is not really famous, but faster than human translators.
