The 1500 Intruder Suzuki
The 1500 Intruder Suzuki

A 15-litre tank seems a small on the pocket-size side however it is decently for a range of over 200 kilometres. This does not sound a lot, however it is more than the longest stretch without fuel when crossing the Nullarbor. A low-fuel light warns you when to look for a service station.



Brakes are healthy (for this flair of bike). When given a difficult squeeze they could lock the front at reduce speeds. Slightly softer compound tyres than normal can prevent this. It is good to know the brakes have also plenty of bite when commuting around on a 296 kilogram (dry) machine. I was surprised at how easygoing the bounteous Intruder is to change direction etc. It takes fewer body effort to cause changes of direction than many sports-tourers.

The Intruder seems to have also a very low centre of gravity which is a nice thing and is what probably causes the direction changes so easygoing to complete. However, due to the relatively sluggish steering you could find yourself functional a small broad on tighter corners. This again is further a characteristic of the cruiser flair of bike quite than a direct criticism of the Intruder. I did punt the 1500 around rather difficult in places, with boards scraping, throwing it in from corner to corner etc. and found myself having a outstanding deal of fun.

The 145mm ground clearance is rather charitable in this type of motorcycle. Even though my preferences definitely lean towards the further sporting side of motorcycling I could understand the allure of the cruiser flair of motorcycle to many riders. The Intruder is a outstanding looking bike. The tank-mounted instrumentation is rather attractive. A very low 700mm seat height ensures the Intruder is without trouble boarded by those of us that are a bit short in the leg department. The Intruder we had on test unruffled had the normal pipes fitted which either self-respecting owner would receive rid of at the earliest opportunity.

With a good set of pipes the Intruder can sound greater than other bikes in its type as the bike revs a lot of higher. This should endow it with a further exciting note than the 'potato-potato-potato' sound of its competitors. Suzuki's VL 1500 Intruder arrives with the peace of mind that a two-year Suzuki warranty brings.
