[4] The VN750 remained largely unchanged throughout its 22-year production run with only minor adjustments to the components and varying paint schemes.

The VN750 was unique in its class by featuring a more reliable shaft drive usually found on larger cruisers.

[1] The motorcycle also featured a liquid-cooled DOHC V-twin engine producing 66 horsepower and 47 ft-lbs of torque.

The bike was configured to support an upright riding position with a king/queen seat and a factory installed sissy bar.
