Suzuki Marauder 800
The Suzuki Marauder 800 has a top speed of 170 km/h (estimated), produces 45 hp and weighs 228 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.5/10.
Suzuki Marauder 800 (VZ800) был представлен в 1997 году как среднеразмерный круизер, призванный конкурировать на растущем американском рынке V-образных крейсеров. Он оснащался V-образным двигателем объемом 805 куб. см, созданным на базе семейства TL1000. Он выполнен в классическом круизном стиле с низкой высотой сидений и непринужденной эргономикой. Он выпускался до 2004 года и получил высокую оценку за доступную мощность, доступную цену и комфортную езду, что делало его популярным выбором для новичков и водителей среднего уровня.

Что следует знать покупателям
Proven Reliable Engine
The 805cc V-twin engine is known for its durability and low maintenance needs, often running well past 50,000 miles with basic upkeep. It shares DNA with Suzuki's dependable Intruder lineup, giving it a strong reliability reputation.
Watch for Carb Issues
Carburetor gumming from ethanol-blended fuel sitting too long is the most common issue found on used models. Always ask for recent carb cleaning history or budget for a rebuild when buying.
Budget-Friendly Resale
The Marauder 800 holds modest but stable resale value, making it an affordable entry into cruiser ownership without steep depreciation risk. Parts are widely available and inexpensive, keeping long-term ownership costs low.

"Честный, неприхотливый крейсер, который не поставит вас в неловкое положение."
Marauder 800 никогда не претендовал на то, что есть: крейсер среднего водоизмещения, который старается изо всех сил и позволяет вам ездить. Этот V-образный двигатель объемом 805 куб. см отлично разгоняется со скоростью около 2500 об/мин и обеспечивает приятный толчок, а высота сиденья 700 мм позволяет водителям с меньшим ростом касаться земли, не вставая на цыпочках. Двигатель работает небыстро — на скоростях по шоссе двигатель работает, а передний барабанный тормоз ранних моделей, откровенно говоря, ставил в неловкое положение, так как его нужно планировать заранее, до перекрестков. Вибрация на брусьях со скоростью свыше 100 км/ч вполне реальна, и она накапливается при длительных пробегах, но первые пару часов езды действительно комфортны, а весь пакет обладает прочностью, которой часто не хватает бюджетным круизерам.

Отзыв покупателя б/у
"Reliable, undervalued cruiser that rewards patient used buyers."
$2,500-$4,500 usedThe Marauder 800 is Suzuki's forgotten middleweight cruiser, and honestly? It deserves more attention than it gets. The 805cc V-twin is bulletproof if it's been maintained — these engines routinely crack 60,000 miles without major drama. It's not fast, it's not flashy, but it pulls smoothly from low revs and handles like a much lighter bike than it looks. For new-to-cruiser riders or anyone wanting an affordable weekend machine, it makes a lot of sense. The used market is your friend here. Most examples sit between $2,500 and $4,500, which is remarkable value. Check the carbs first — neglected bikes sit with varnished jets, and a carb clean is an afternoon job but annoying to discover after purchase. Also inspect the final drive chain and rear sprocket; previous owners often skipped that maintenance. Chrome can pit badly on older examples, so look carefully. This isn't a bike that'll excite you on a twisty road, but it won't embarrass you either. Solid, dependable, undemanding — sometimes that's exactly what you need.
