Suzuki Intruder Cool Motor Design






Suzuki Intruder Cool Motor Design
The Suzuki VS Intruder is a series of cruiser type motorcycles. The Intruder family was introduced in 1986 and was in production until 2005 when Suzuki replaced it with the Boulevard range. In Europe, the Intruder name remains in use for certain of the Boulevard machines.

This model with 747cc engine capacity was produced specifically for US market between 1985 - 1991. Engine is four-stoke, water-cooled, OHC, 45-degree V-twin producing maximum of 55 HP at 7,500 rpm with compression ratio 1:10 giving the bike top speed of 165 km/h. Each cylinder has its own Mikuni carburetor. Transmission is 5 speed, constant mesh. Stopping power is provided with a single disc at the front and drum brake at the rear. 1985 - 1987 models could be easily recognized as these have front brake rotor on the left side instead of right side found on later models. Their sissy bar is also shorter.

All these models are shaft driven. In 1990 a map boost sensor was added to the VS1400 model to increase highway mileage. This correlated to a change in the ignitor unit, which went from a two socket 4/6 pin configuration, to a 4/9 pin configuration, with the left/right orientation of the two sockets reversed. Suzuki VS 400 Intruder is a middleweight chopper motorcycle. It features water-cooled 399cc, 4 stroke V-Twin engine capable of producing 33BHP.
