    Nice bike. My step dad had the big boy version of that intruder. He had a 1997 Intruder with the 1400cc engine. Thing was a torque monster. It sounded exactly like that bike as well. Very fun bike to ride as well. Great vid man!

    That's one sweet bike, VS 800 is so user friendly it's great for newbies or small frame girls even. Not intimidating at all, yet it packs some potential. That one of yours sounds really healthy.

    Stop reminding me that I want more than my 125 spicy! I love it but the 500cc I did my A2 on was definitely a bit more fun. Insurance is terrible though for EU license holders in the UK :( I'm paying almost double what my friend did for the same bike and experience level (aka none), same city too :/

    It's funny talking about it as a 'big' cruiser because it's 800 and many sport bikes are only 600, but in the world of cruisers 800 is on the smaller end. Usually companies have like a 650-900 offering and then a larger cruiser that's like a 1100-1300, then the full fledged cruisers like HD twins, the big Honda shadow, etc. are like 1700-1800. So this is like an entry sized Suzuki cruiser.
    Did you take it on the highway? If so, how did it do? Usually the problem with these smaller cruisers is they usually only pack them with 5 gears and then 5th is strung out at 4000 RPM on the highway (which is very different than 4000 RPM on a sport bike) and it really kinda sucks. That's the problem with like the 883 sportster & the yamaha bolt, vstar, IMO. It's def. a good looking bike, though.

    Now challenge yourself to find an old VX800. Same drivetrain as that VS, but in an upright/standard frame similar to the old Nighthawk 750. Quite an odd duck.

      Imo 1-2l would be mid but each to their own, when you go from a virago 250 to a rocket 3 (2,500) the average goes up, 1100cc cruisers aren’t even that fast standard it you’ve ridden any sportsbikes
