Thoughts on Suzuki Intruder 1400

[niclpnut]

While not normally my style, I have the opportunity to pick up a low mileage 2001 1400 cruiser for little money from a friend of a friend...

Anyone have any experience with this bike? From sitting on it, the seat feels cramped and the bars are a little wonky. Have not ridden it, but it's been well taken care of with under 4k on the clock. (guy just bought a Harley and has no need for this one)

Any input welcome.

Thanks,

Nic

True cruiser, cramped seat, wonky bars, does it have a small gas tank? Great machines mechanically though. If you get it cheap enough you can flip it in the Spring.

Agreed -- great shaft drive engine surrounded by all the standard stupid cruiser stuff. If it's not your thing, you can flip it easily if it looks decent.

Not really a high demand bike if it's the model I am thinking. They were selling them at Newmarket suzuki for 7299 if I recall correctly. Think the model was vs1400. I prefer this style for looks though.
