VS 1400

The Suzuki VS1400 Intruder is a classic V-twin cruiser with 1360 cc that Suzuki introduced in 1987 and kept in production for decades thanks to sustained demand. The air/oil-cooled 45-degree V-twin delivers deliberately modest power, around 49 kW (67 hp), for a relaxed, torque-oriented riding character. Extensive chrome trim, a low seat and the typical forward riding position make the VS1400 a straightforward representative of the American-style cruiser tradition.

The VS1400 attracts riders who want a large-displacement machine with timeless looks and low running costs. The simple technical concept, no riding aids, no electronic management, makes it easy to service at home. As a used buy it is well represented on the market thanks to its long production run. It sits alongside the Yamaha Drag Star 1100 and Honda Shadow 1100 as an iconic example of the affordable, reliable large cruiser.
