For most of its production lifetime the Suzuki Intruder 1400 was the largest model in the Intruder lineup. It was a very smooth V-twin with nice power, but didn't quite have the same [[Harley-Davidson|Harley]] emulating sound of the [[Honda VT1100C2|Honda Shadow ACE]] or [[Kawasaki Vulcan 1500]] | For most of its production lifetime the Suzuki Intruder 1400 was the largest model in the Intruder lineup.

Introduced in 1987, the VS 1400 Intruder has suffered only a few changes over the years. The original model had a 4 speed gearbox but in 1992, the 5 speed model was introduced to Europe. | |||

Classic down to the bone, the 2002 MY VS1400 Intruder is a lower-big-bore chopper with tons of character, wire spoked wheels,a slash-but shorty silencer, a teardrop tank neatly complementing the raked-out front and yoke-mounted instruments. | |||
Th classic air/oil-cooled 1360cc v-twin packs plenty of punch to make the VS1400 Intruder fun to ride, solo and two-up, while the shaft final drive eliminates much of the overall maintenance fuss. Compact, yet offering a comfy ride, this is a chopper worth considering when it's time to go for a new bike. | |||

Slim, narrow, aggressive and oozing classic style, the 2003 MY VS1400 Intruder packs solid chopper looks from an age we though long gone. Neatly padded seats for both rider and passenger, a miniature backrest for the latter, a teardrop tank, raked-out forks, skinny front wheel with laced rims and a shorty exhaust are all on the list to stress out its retro heritage. | |||
With 60 ho and 105 Nm of torque, the VS1400 Intruder is ready to take on the world, and adding a luggage system and a windscreen will also make it a much more pleasant ride for longer hauls. | |||
