How much oil does a 1997 Suzuki Marauder take?
The Suzuki service manual says it will take 2.2 quarts if you change both the oil and the filter, and that’s exactly what my bike used.
When did the Suzuki Marauder 800 come out?
It’s been a long dry spell for new cruisers from Suzuki. The firm introduced the 700 Intruder in 1986, followed up with the 1400 Intruder in 1987, and then, except for a couple of displacement increases for the smaller bike to eventually make it an 800, Suzuki rested on its considerable laurels.
What kind of engine does a marauder have?
It seems the Marauder engine owes more than a little to the Intruder 800 mill. Though a different transmission and chain drive (instead of the Intruder’s shaft final drive) has been grafted on the back of it, and new cosmetics were applied to its exterior, the engine is otherwise pure Intruder. Not that we’re complaining, mind you.
What’s the difference between a Suzuki Intruder and Marauder?
Suzuki did, however, remedy one of the most pressing problems of the Intruder’s chassis. In spirited cornering, the Marauder’s folding footpegs are the first part to touch down, and they do so cleanly. You no longer need to fear levering your front tire off the ground with the peg mount as you do on the Intruder.
What’s the speed limit on a Suzuki Marauder?
Even cruising at 80 mph during the extended stretches of interstate with a 75-mph speed limit, neither the rider nor the Marauder felt overtaxed. But let the speed get above 80 and only those with the strongest upper bodies will last for long. The rubber-mounted bar isolates the controls well enough to keep the tinglies at bay.
