Once the 900 is marbled you're left with a bunch of hoses that are no longer needed. I took marbling one step further. I got 6 bypass caps (5/8") from the auto store and removed the hoses from the airbox, air valve and cylinders. A 1" piece of small vacuum line is needed to hold the air valve on it's bracket. Don't disconnect and remove the valve - it will set a fault.
That looks really clean man! I didn't do the marble on my bike because I like the popping so I can't do this, but anyone that has marbled their bike should do this.
Mine still pops sometimes and it doesn't bother me. Barely noticeable in the top picture is the relocated air inlet boot and I'm running a 60ppi Unifoam filter in place of the stock breather w/Fi2000r w/debaffled pipes. There's actually room under the tank to clean things now.
Sorry to change the subject but I really like that Air Cleaner mod, is that purchased or did you make it yourself? Don't think I've seen that before. I've always thought the 900 air cleaner could use a little more style.

Twins: I didn't keep my receipt but I found a thread from 2008 in which someone posted the part number, p/n 32130-04. I have a local hd stealer and had them look it up when I got mine 2 years ago. Unless something had changed you won't find it online for some reason.
The cover is 2 piece: black dish backing (to make it look functional) and the chrome cover. A single bolt/nut attaches it to the OEM cover and it covers those bumpy things perfectly. Use a nyloc nut or locktite so the nut won't come off and get sucked in the throttle body.
I have the a stock 12' head light in v900 classic.
What is the next legal, but better HEADlight bulb upgrade ( just the camry verson, not the ferrari version) thats great for during the day or night?
Also, is the labor hard, what does it intail?
thanks to all!
Hello guys. Just joined in hopes to get some help for my 83 year old dad. Still cruising but NOT computer savvy. He has recently purchased a 2012 Vulcan 900 with a trike kit installed. It's the newest bike he's ever owned with a long history of Harleys, Goldwings, etc... He went to start the...
So with a look into the pipes on my '08 it looks like the previous owner removed the outer or last baffle. So if that's the case should I also mod the air filter / air box to kind of balance it out? Does K&N make a filter for the VN900?
Hi all. I have a stock 2006 VN900 Classic with a stock exhaust system, and just under 48000km on it.
It's regularly serviced (due again at 55000km) and I have just today changed the oil, but I've noticed lately it doesn't sound or perform right.
The best way I can describe the performance is...
