In 1998 the 1500 LC Intruder was the biggest motorcycle you could by for money. In my opinion a very underrated bike. Like Sean says in this clip it have plenty of power and it is big, the motor never runs out of power. The build quality is also very good. The fueltank under the seat gives the bike a better handling. A cruiser you can drive for many hours also 2 people and not be tired.
I picked up a 2001 ( 2021) last summer for $3500 Cdn. Low 24000 miles.great bike, fast and comphy. I had a roadster 1700 years ago, but it was close to 800 lbs wet. This one weights 650lbs. Much easier to handle and the wide tires are very stable. A diamond in the rough for sure.
Came across one of these bikes cheap and remembered this video. Bought it and couldn't be happier. It's a big bike that feels light and nimble. Intruder>boulevard
I just put a 1998 speedo on my 1999. Is there just a reserve light for the gas? My 99 had 5 bars that would indicate gas level and then the reserve light. I notice 2 trip meters b ut no gas gauge on the 98 speedo.
That's right. I have a '98 as well and I use one trip meter for tracking the trip miles; and the other to estimate fuel left in the tank. I've learned that as long as I refuel around 120 miles I'll be ok. Ride safe everyone.
Hi Murray, do you still own it? How long have you owned it for and what issues did you have? Im looking at one this week. I really like the look
3 года назад+5
I just recently bought myself a 1999 VL 1500 intruder as my first bike. It fits me nicely since I'm 6'11" and well built. I really enjoy riding it. Only 9900miles. It's yellow and white. Quite the unusual combination.
Just picked up a 2000 VL1500. Very first road bike ive ever had. Absolutely in love with it. Big, wide, low and loud with the Cobra neighbor haters on it. Only paid $2000 and the paint is in great shape with brand new seats
Just got one for 200 bucks and it sat since 08..... new fuel and oil and fired up like it did back in the day. I haven’t rode it yet because I’m still giving it a little tlc but can’t wait!
I bought a new one in 2001. The bike had single disk brake on front. Went to dual brake in 2002. It was one of the best bikes, it was smooth with a lot of power. The only other thing that I didn't like. You had to take tank (airbox) off to get to plugs.
5 years ago I decided to check off a bucket list item and get a bike. I took the local MSF course and bought a Vstrom 650. Unfortunately I never really got comfortable on it and sold it after 6-7 months. Lately I've been hearing this little voice in the back of my head saying give it another shot. I think I would be happier with a cruiser type bike, do you think this would be a good choice?
This was my first bike and I love it. Comfy, got big power, and handles pretty good for a big bike. Plus they aren't that expensive. Got mine for $3200 with only 14k miles on it.
I work at a senior living facility and I just bought a 2001 intruder 1500 from one of the residents that live there. $1700 cash and it has more than 1K in mods, talk about a good deal !
I'm gonna have to watch this one on repeat, because I want one of these Edit: i have the bike by now, and oh my god is it a comfortable ride, its a really good bike
I Learned there's A LOT of differences in the Intruder and Boulevard. Seats are different, fake gas tanks are different, Side panels are different, Intruder is 3 valve, Boulevard is 4 valve and FI, Frames are different. Block is the same yes but don't go ordering stuff you want to upgrade on an Intruder without doing the research
@@LarryWhite-kw5mj Ive recently started looking at those. I've been riding my VL1500 for about 3 years and I may buy something else around the first of spring next year
I have a 1998 VL 1500 Intruder and I like it a bunch. However, I disagree with SRK that it's a light bike. I also have a 2005 Honda VTX 1300C and the Intruder is noticeably heavier and it's not as nimble as the VTX. But they're both awesome bikes. Ride safe everyone.
I just got mine for $250 (California) Clean no dents no scratches 2002, 20k miles, a lot of extras just needed a new battery 🔋 beautiful bikes but I will never pay more than $1500 for it! I know I can find them cheap af!
I appreciate the ride. Looking at a 2004 right now with 25000 miles on it for 1400. Says he's having a hard time starting it sometimes. Mentioned the safety switch on the clutch lever. Opinions???
I have 2006 c90 boulevard and I love it smooth as he'll ,solid power, very comfortable for long runs, just put cobra speedster pipes on with hwy pegs and a cobra fi2000r fuel controller on and dam just absolutely love it won't ride any other bike. Stops nice and I am almost 6 ft tall and I look small on it so it would be a great bike for bigger people.
Just bought an 08 C90. I'm 6'5" and even a lot of the larger bikes just didn't have good ergonomics without messing with seats, handlebars, floorboards, etc. The C90 was the best fit.
I've got a '98, I love it, but every morning, it looks a little newer. I keep remembering the movie "Christine" I think that's what's happening to yours
Hi everyone. I have opportunity to buy Vulcan Classic Tourer Fi 2003 or VL 1500 2004 carburated. Which one would you recommend? Price is almost the same, anyway I feel Vulcan noticeable heavier.

Charles Long my opinion is that yes they would be but the bike might not start up after that after all their a little old for that if you’re doing it straight
I own this exact bike, only difference is mine is green and silver. I want to get spoke wheels and hard saddle bags for mine any ideas for where I can find some
My 03 rides rough as shit with my woman on it also hate the key locks they seem to always rattle under acceleration. Other than that not a bad bike for the price.
Curious Ive only been on a johnny pag spyder 300 and have the opportunity to get an 03 intruder 1500 just nervous cause of the big difference. How is it going from 300 to 1500
In my opinion if you just be careful and don't let the number intimidate you then you will be fine, I learned to ride through a safety course on a 650 and then as soon as I finished hopped on my mom's 1200 low Harley sportster and I loved the difference, the power is great and I think the more power the better.
1500 with a 3 gallon gas tank. I fill mine every day I go to work. Top speed is 110 wide open and you will go through 3 gallons in roughly 60 miles (not that I would know)
Sean, I've been watching your videos for like a week, maybe 2 weeks. I've been binge watching lol. I think you are awesome. Your videos are great, I thoroughly enjoy your test ride videos. I have not yet purchased my first bike yet.. I hope to start on a Vilcan 800 or a sportster 883 or 900 or a V Star of somekind.. I'm 28 and my father has had an Ultra Classic for like 11 years, a Voyager before that and a Vulcan 800 classic before that. I cant wait to join him on rides. I dont yet have the funds for a bike but I hope and pray (literally pray) for an opportunity to get a starter bike.. I love your videos and Would just adore the Opportunity to get one from you in the future! Hope to hear back man.
I have a 2002 suzuki intruder vl 1500 lc, good motorcycleI love it, but after 60 mph it vibrate a lot, it is insane vibration, and it turn unsave this way. Somebody here know how to fix this issue?
Sold my vn800 classic due to the lack of power on the highway, found a good deal on this bike but it only got 10-12 hp more. Do you Think it would be sufficient?
Hello, I have a question to you all. I live in the Netherlands and getting lessons now. I'm 1,83 meter. Is this bike something i can hendel well??? Do you maybe also shipping to Europe?
Hi, I'm similar to you in height and, I have a '98 VL 1500 Intruder. Your height is fine for this bike. However for a new rider like yourself, I would not recommend such a big bike as your first bike. I would suggest getting a smaller bike to start with and gain some experience and confidence. Then upgrade to a bike like this. Btw, I mean no disrespect or offense. My friend sold me his VL 1500 Intruder because this was the first bike he ever owned once he got his license when he had no experience riding any kind of motorcycle (except the riding school bikes which are usually small Honda Rebels) I realize this thread is 3 years old, but I wanted to share my opinion. I wish you luck with your lessons and hope you enjoy your riding career. Ride safe.
The name change made sense because being an Intruder is never a good thing? But it's a good thing to be a Drifter, fat boy, nomad, savage or a shadow? Or Ninja - a person trained in ancient Japanese martial arts and employed especially for espionage and assassinations. Is that a good thing? I swear you will say anything to sell a bike. If they had changed it from Boulevard to Intruder, you would have said the name change gave the bike more manly appeal. If you ever get out of the business of selling used motorcycles, you would be good at selling used cars.
I remember these when they first came out like 1986? Suzuki selected "Intruder" name I think, because this was their NEW "OFFERING" ..... to the " low rider, chopper looking cruiser" FIELD..... thus the name ...Intruder...get it.?
It's not heavy? My dad has one and it's the heaviest bike I've ever felt. I havent driven it though. But to me it feels like it weighs like 900lbs Edit: I have since got my endorsement and ridden the bike several times. It is lightweight feeling during the ride, but still quite heavy while sitting, especially trying to inch forward in neutral
I agree with you on it feeling heavy while sitting. I have a 2005 Honda VTX 1300C as well as the VL 1500 Intruder. In comparison, the Intruder is about 20# heavier than the VTX, but it feels heavier than that since it's (the Intruder) not as nimble as the VTX because of the slightly longer wheelbase of the Intruder.
Man Intruder isn't the best name? You want to be intruder or...boulevar? intruder sounds a lot better ;) btw you want to look mean on that kind of machine...not just...nice. :)
Not sure about the name... I think it's fine. Haven't done much riding. Got a Honda Shadow 750 ACE last spring, sold it this spring because I was going away for the summer... Anyway, I still want to ride so, I looked on my local Craigslist and found an '02 Intruder VL1500 for $2200. I'm only 5'6". You say it's not heavy. I wonder if I can handle it. It has 80k miles. Older man has to sell... well maintained. Thanks for the vid/ review
Hey mate, I'm 5' 7" and I ride a M109R 2007. Its great because the weight is low down and you can move it side to side with your knees when you're stationary. Get it.
My ! st Bike Was 1999 LC 1500 Intruder .. Cuz walked into honda dealer ship maumee oh There it FF Was Intruder sold sing Bran New $ 8000.00 year old still in the crat un touch,ed
One of the worst bikes I ever owned, best day was when I sold it..its not dependable, shitty carbs, stupid decompression system that is a enevibility of failure and sure to leave you stranded, the electrical system is junk..weak, harness is under gauged and not grounded properly..it actually is atrociously heavy..the gas tank up top is fake, cause its heavy they put the gas tank under the seat so you won't drop it in a slow turn...there are dozens of forums out there dedicated to this bike for problems and DIY fixes for about everything bolted on it, I wouldn't give a plug nickel for a truck load of those bikes.

Over here ..4500 euro
Just got one for 500 🙏🏻
Love my 99
dont like carbs.Like Vulcans FI better
Got an 2001 for $3200 with only 13k miles on it. Awesome bike.
Shorts and no gloves? In that case Boulevard would be the right name!
Man Intruder isn't the best name? You want to be intruder or...boulevar? intruder sounds a lot better ;)
btw you want to look mean on that kind of machine...not just...nice. :)
lol great point
Not sure about the name... I think it's fine. Haven't done much riding. Got a Honda Shadow 750 ACE last spring, sold it this spring because I was going away for the summer... Anyway, I still want to ride so, I looked on my local Craigslist and found an '02 Intruder VL1500 for $2200. I'm only 5'6". You say it's not heavy. I wonder if I can handle it. It has 80k miles. Older man has to sell... well maintained.
Thanks for the vid/ review
Hey mate, I'm 5' 7" and I ride a M109R 2007. Its great because the weight is low down and you can move it side to side with your knees when you're stationary. Get it.
nice
In Belgian, you will pay at least 5000$ for this bike. 🙄🥺

jesus farts at 0:30 - words of wisdom!
One of the worst bikes I ever owned, best day was when I sold it..its not dependable, shitty carbs, stupid decompression system that is a enevibility of failure and sure to leave you stranded, the electrical system is junk..weak, harness is under gauged and not grounded properly..it actually is atrociously heavy..the gas tank up top is fake, cause its heavy they put the gas tank under the seat so you won't drop it in a slow turn...there are dozens of forums out there dedicated to this bike for problems and DIY fixes for about everything bolted on it, I wouldn't give a plug nickel for a truck load of those bikes.
You comment the same negative comment in every video you should have taken care of your bike. Clearly your bought a lemon . Many intruder 1500 riders with over 100,000 miles
@@2wheelfamily493 that dude is a 🤡 every car/motorcycle got diy forums addressing issues with them. Guess what, eventually things break down! Crazy right. They're great bikes and he's just a hater that he got a lemon.
