  • Kawasaki Vulcan VN 800E Drifter, fishtail pipes, muffler or exhaust, side or manual shifter, front and rear crash bars or rear saddlebag guards. The Drifters are intended to be a "tribute" to the 1948 Indian Chief and so closely resembles the Indian Chief of the late 1940s that the uninitiated mistake it for an "old" Indian.

    Hello good night, I would like if possible to help me, I have a Kawasaki vulcan 800 year 1996 ... and I have not found anywhere on the internet a service manual for it (I only think in English) ... I would like to know if you have something related to that, thank you in advance

      Mine came off a '96 Vulcan classic. Had to use a grinder to remove some material to make fit. Ironically, now my saddle bags/mounts won't fit with rear bars on. I saw a guy cut front highways bars in half and weld connectors to the ends for rear crash bars.

    Did you install the side shifter? Was there a modification for the clutch as well? I would like to get one for my '05 Drifter.

      Side shifter is homemade and it is all bolted on, so no modifications to the clutch. It attaches to the toe/heel shifter so I can use either

      @@joeblasia1427 Thanks for the info! I would love to make one of my own, but I'm not sure my knee wouldn't bump into it. I'm 6'2", so maybe my knee extends out more than some people. I see there is about 6" of space between my tank and my handlebar, which doesn't seem like a lot of clearance. Is it at all awkward for your leg placement?

      @@joeblasia1427 I see there are kits for Jockey shifters that attach on the left side. Did you use a kit but alter it for the right side? Or did you make it from scratch?
      I would want parts that are chromed, like yours. Your bike is beautiful, btw.

      @@syncopated Mine is made totally from scratch even has a Hurst shifter built in there...The right side jockey is nice for cruising through gears...On the left side, I imagine I'd have to speed shift--no clutch--to use the jockey or reach over the tank (not recommended) although I've reached over and speed shifted with the jockey. I like to show off :) Since I really don't want to tear up my bike, I just drift nice and easy.
