I love the cleanness of the Intruders, no junk hanging everywhere, spoke wheels and smooth lines. 🐾✌️🇺🇸

Opposite of old Yamaha XV.s .

Middle finger?

[@muzkat101]

1400?! That's a big bike, but Kaplan's a big guy, and he make this bike look small. BTW - that bike has an awesome sound to it for a Suzuki, and an '87 -- looks new, can't believe it.👍

[@magnang]

They are not big bikes.. weighs 100lbs less than a shadow 750. Big engine in a small frame. Sounds awesome, and it is.

[@Shadow0fd3ath24]

big engine but not a big bike at all...thyere actually kinda small and dinky looking. They weigh the same or LESS than a hayabusa or Ninja H2 sportbike(barely but still)

[@Spool77]

Looks like that car after the burnout thinks you're number 1 lol. Sweet bike!

[@ThomasC-Crazy4NiagaraFalls]

Have had my 96 Intruder 1400 since 1998 and I love it now as much as I did the first day I got it. 52,000 miles and it's in the shop now for it's first major repair. Getting the carbs rebuilt. God, I can't wait to get it back and go cruisin!!!

[@keisenburg9828]

Americas #1 Badass! I just bought a '04 VS1400 last night! So cool to see you riding one!!!

[@handyfix2952]

Love the light on the front fender. That’s a unique upgraded.

[@pleun315]

I had the 87 too, with 91000 miles ! Never had any issues or problems, didnt leak oil. These bikes are absolute bullet proof ❤

[@captainaxle438]

It had an automatic compression release for startup that would sometimes stick open, make a funny noise at idle. Would unstick when motor got good and hot

[@detailguy8892]

I just got 2001 suzuki intruder 1400. Let me say i love it. When i got it it had 30k miles on it. Alot of my friends are also blown away by it. It looks like its been in a time capsule. Im not crazy about the stock handlebars , but i got used to them . They really are nice bikes. Super powerful .

[@TheDukeofFancy]

Just got myself an 03 vs 800 for a buck (literally) will needs some tires and some definite tlc since it sat all through covid. This excts me excited to get it up and running

[@worldssickestmedia2713]

My cousin had one. Fun bike to ride. Especially with my skinny 135 lbs azz on it. It's a monster.

[@mackenzie77777]

Now that is a cruiser ! I`d prefer slightly lower handle bars myself.

[@michaellambert3067]

That is a cool Suzuki! I really like the light ass'bly on the front fender. With shaft drive and hydraulically adjusted valves that bike is very low maintenance.

[@oldmanrock7542]

I owned an 800 and 1500. Both good bikes. The 800 was quick and agile. The 1500 was a good highway cruiser.

[@CreepyMonkeyHeadGame]

I'm Canadian with a intruder 800 1995 in condition just the same and flawless other than a few paint chips from stupidity mind stored outside for a Canadian winter under a tarp these bikes are amazing and built to last even when they're running like shit which is the rarest of occurrences it's still gets you where you need to go thanks for this wonderful hunk of Japanese ingenuity well done Suzuki ❤❤❤❤

[@charleswilson4526]

Best looking cruiser of all time imo

[@muzkat101]

I also wanted to say, Snarly exhaust notes -- love it.

[@abruta1400cc]

Spectacular, 2 years ago I was researching custom motorcycles to buy, I saw Suzuki Intruder 1400cc, it was love at first sight, I hated my KZbin profile

[@sonnyseabury4051]

That is one very sharp looking cruiser style bike. You have to wonder how much the deceased original owner really rode it. It looks brand new. I love the way the exhaust note sounds.

[@500erider]

Such timeless beauty.

[@deadfordays]

2:55 guy flippin the bird lol

If he was a real man he would have stopped and got the beating of a lifetime from Ronnie

Nice burnout up the driveway!🤘

[@dantehall5526]

I got vs 1400 96 year model. With same exhaust. I truly love that bike! Only con i have found is it only have four gears. They fixed it on later models.

I have a 2002 intruder and I love it!!!! Fantastic bike❤

[@DavidVega-sz9wd]

The intruder is one of the bikes I'd have no shame driving other than my Harley

[@RCTUN748]

I've always thought that the VS 1400 maintains a really clean and good-looking chopper style. I've seen some that have been turned into bobber, and the proportions just look off. If the stock VS 1400 came with a 21-inch front wheel and maybe a slightly wider stance or slightly lowered front forks, that could also be pretty cool. Wait, it's 2:56 there are say hello?

[@automania2058]

there is a vs800 intruder, there are already 21 wheels in the front, it can be installed at 1400

[@bdmx8224]

Wasn‘t there a model in 86/87 with a dragbar? I only got the buckhorn bar. Since i live in Germany i‘d need an original dragbar without having to go to tüv (somewhat like dmv) and have it added into the papers for quite some money. Does anyone know if you can get the original dragbar anywhere?

[@openpalmjustice]

My friend is sitting on one of these with a smaller engine that is cosmetically very nice but has-been sitting for so long that mice have chewed through the wires.

[@tomjefferson1863]

I learned to ride on one, my first bike. I'd give $9000 for it !!

[@careyautorepairs]

I like that bike, very nice.

[@automania2058]

beautiful motorcycle, of course difficult to maintain,especially access to carburetors and battery, I have a vs600 intruder, it really lacks power, I hope I’ll change to a 1400, or a Harley vrod)

[@g60force]

what are you talking about I have a vs600 and the battery is super easy to reach / recharge / replace sadly I have to take the carbs apart and yes thats not a quick task

Buttery!

Привет! У меня такой 1997года. Отличный мот👍

[@scotbeverly1434]

Can you tell me how much it costs to sink the carbs and when it was done got a 1993 Suzuki intruder that all of a Suden it started running like crap thinking it's in the synking or cleabing of carbs

Is it true the battery (on that model) is in an awkward place?

[@thedaydreamer7972]

Yes, its under the swingarm and a real PITA to get to, the Intruder in general has some bizare things about it, 2 different carbs, different jets, a high speed and a low speed sync cable to name a few, but its a cool bike for sure

[@g60force]

@@thedaydreamer7972 not sure if it's different but my vs600 battery wasn't that difficult to get out
