Suzuki Other description

1996 Suzuki VS1400GLPT Intruder 1400, One of the Most Powerful V-twins Ever - The Suzuki Intruder 1400, a cruiser bike, was produced by Suzuki from 1987 till 2004. According to Motorcycle Cruiser magazine, Suzuki proved with this model that they could make a ...clean cruiser with a strong chopper influence... While it was in production, the Suzuki Intruders big V-twin engine reigned supreme among its competition, out-muscling them all with superb power and performance. The Engine The Suzuki Intruder 1400 engine displaces 829.9 cubic inches and has a four stroke air/oil cooled V-twin with a single overhead cam. The engine has six valves with a bore and stroke of 3.70 by 3.85.00 inches and compression ratio of 9.3:1. The Intruder has an electric starter and five-speed transmission with a shaft drive. The five-speed transmission gives the bike almost a five mile per gallon increase over the old four-speed. The change in transmission allowed the Intruder to go from 42.6 to 46.8 mpg. Lastly the Intruder relies on a Mikuni BDS36 in the front and a BS36 in the rear for carburetion. The Chassis The chassis has narrow clean chopper lines. It has a tall slender tire in the front. Combined with the narrow frame and swept back handle bars, this gives the bike a long, lean look. The Intruder sports front telescopic coil springs with rear twin shocks that are adjustable five ways. For braking power it relies on single hydraulic disc fore and aft which gives the bike good control and more than adequate stopping power. The fuel tank holds 3.4 gallons of fuel and the Suzuki Intruder receives about 46.8 mpg. The Dimensions The Intruder has 91.9 inches in overall length with a width of 34.8 inches. For height the Intruder stands at 47.4 inches. The seat has a length of 28.9 inches. The bike has low ground clearance of 5.9 inches. The Intruder has a 63.5 inch wheelbase and uses 110/90-19 62H as a front tire and 170/80-15 M/C 77H in the rear.

Schwantz and Mackenzie on the Nurburgring box

Mon, 10 Dec 2012

A 500GP bike never fails to stop me in my tracks and that’s exactly what happened when I spotted this Schwantz example from the early nineties, proudly displayed on the Arai stand at the recent Motorcyclelive show.  On loan from Crescent Suzuki and accompanied by a rostrum publicity shot from the 1990 German GP at the Nurburgring, I felt the urge to write a few words on that special weekend. I started the year running my own 250 GP team with fairly standard TZ Yamahas but was drafted in as Kevin Schwantz’s team mate after Kevin Magee suffered a serious head injury at the second Grand Prix in Laguna Seca.  With no testing and some major Spanish food poisoning I finished 8th at the next round in Jerez then followed that up with a 5th place in Misano. Next up was the Nurburgring and after qualifying on the second row of the grid, my crew chief Geoff Crust informed me he had a premonition of a race day rostrum finish. He also told me I better make it come true as he was already looking forward to a few post race celebratory refreshments. While I hoped Crusty was the new mystic meg, the truth was I would have been more than happy to buy the beers if I made it to the flag inside the top five. I had an outside chance of catching one major scalp as Wayne Rainey was riding with a nasty hand injury but I suspected adrenalin would see him through the day. I also followed Mick Doohan a fair bit in practice but he was beginning to find his feet on the Rothmans Honda so was going to be another problem.  When the lights went out Schwantz and Rainey went straight to the front I while I hung in behind Doohan and Pier Francesco Chilli, and then it happened. Coming out of the bottom right hand hairpin, Doohan and Chilli simultaneously high sided in one of the most spectacular crashes of the season. I never liked seeing any fellow riders crash but I made the most of this early race gift and rode my 160bhp/115kg RGV hard to the flag, claiming my first podium of the season.  We partied hard (win or lose we always did) that night and I went on to have my best ever season finishing fourth overall in the championship. After the last round in Australia, I finished second to Kevin at Sugo in Japan then won in Malaysia at another international race that KS didn’t attend. I also tested at Eastern Creek for the following season but then was flicked from the team for reasons that still remain a mystery. Hey Ho!       

Suzuki Developing 1000cc Prototype – MotoGP Return in 2014 Still Possible

Fri, 03 Feb 2012

The first MotoGP pre-season test at Mayalsia’s Sepang circuit is complete, with Ducati, Honda and Yamaha‘s factory and satellite teams, as well as a handful of CRT entries, collecting data for the next stage of their race prototypes’ development. Absent from testing was Suzuki which announced last November it was leaving MotoGP racing. Suzuki cited the recession, the rising value of the Japanese yen and the natural disasters afflicting Japan in 2011 as reasons for leaving MotoGP, but the manufacturer did say it intended to return in 2014.

2014 Suzuki V-Strom 1000 Specs Released

Mon, 23 Sep 2013

Suzuki continued its nearly year-long tease for its new V-Strom 1000, releasing new pictures and full technical specifications for the highly-anticipated adventure tourer. We first saw the 2014 Suzuki V-Strom 1000 at the 2012 Intermot Show in Cologne last October. For a concept, the V-Strom appeared close to being ready for production, and the new photos of the production model show very few visual changes from the past year.
