The main feature of the Kawasaki VN 750 Vulcan is a liquid-cooled V-twin 2-cylinder engine that produces 66 hp. power and 65 Nm of torque, which makes it perhaps the most powerful motorcycle in the Cruiser class for its engine size. In addition, the data from the dino-stand shows that the declared characteristics of the motor are underestimated by 8-10% of the real values โ€‹โ€‹of power and torque. This fact indicates that either Kawasaki did not have enough experience in building classic cruisers, and therefore, out of habit, created a motorcycle with sporty characteristics (the "red zone" of the engine starts at 8500 rpm), or this step was deliberate, and the appearance of such a powerful bike was due only to the desire to bypass competitors, but then it looks illogical to underestimate the real characteristics of the motor.
