"Rumble along with style on the Suzuki VZ800 Marauder. Turn heads and discover what cruising was meant to be.If you’re in the market for budget cruiser, you’ll struggle to find better value than the Suzuki Marauder 800. OK, it’s your basic Harley V-twin clone, but with durable shaft drive, comfortable seating, 100mph performance and respectable braking, the Suzuki can do pretty much everything Hog can do – but for great deal less money.With tried and trusted 800cc sized motor derived from the long running Intruder series, the Suzuki Marauder offers more poke than the Yamaha Virago 535 or Drag Star 650, but at around the same price. You can even buy one in two-tone paint, if that rings your bell…Turn heads and discover what cruising was meant to be by taking control of the Marauder’s powerful high-torque, high compression V-Twin engine. It’s mounted in long, lean chassis that is led by 35-degree-rake fork. Your pride of ownership shows in the rich finish and lustrous chrome that are the result of Suzuki’s close attention to detail. And your enjoyment of the ride deserves performance equipment such as the inverted fork, hollow-spoke aluminium wheels and wide front and rear tires. Whether you ride with passenger or remove the rear seat and take it alone, the VZ800 Marauder looks right, feels right and performs right.High-compression 805cm3 liquid-cooled V-Twin engine, with 83mm pistons, four valves per cylinder, and overhead cams, is tuned for acceleration and throttle response. Its modern design ensures superb reliability as well as high fun factor. The compact and efficient aluminium radiator fits cleanly against the frame downtubes. Internal coolant passageways replace external hoses wherever possible to keep the Marauder’s styling sharp.Power is transmitted to the wheels using an eight-coil-spring clutch for smooth, predictable engagement; built-in back-torque-limiter system for smoother downshifts; and tough low-maintenance O-ring chain. Microcomputer-controlled digital ignition system provides ideal timing, unaffected by heat or humidity. The dual exhaust system features chromed mufflers with dual-gas-flow design for deep, powerful rumble that keeps within noise regulations.The double-cradle frame is built for rigidity. The seating position and centre of gravity are low, the wheelbase is long, and the rake is 35 degrees-to give you the style and the ride you want. Bolt-on covers reinforce the frame in the swingarm pivot section.The Marauder’s suspension features an inverted fork with lustrous machined and chromed outer-tube finish as well as covered and chromed rear shocks with five preload adjustments.The 13-litre fuel tank has flush-mount, aircraft-style flip-up filler. The tank and fenders are painted with four rich colour coats and depth-enhancing clear coat to give the Marauder deep, glossy, durable finish. Wide 16-inch front and 15-inch rear tires are mounted on sharp-looking hollow-spoke aluminium wheels. The dynamic, purposeful profile of the Marauder is impressive with its lustrous chrome that highlights the engine covers, rear fender stays, chain guard, frame sidecovers and forged side stand.Comfortable two-person seating lets you remove the rear seat to highlight the finish of the rear fender. The locking front seat can be removed to reveal convenient two-liter storage box and two helmet hooks. The box is easily removed for quick access to the maintenance-free battery."
