Suzuki gw250 or vl250 intruder

[nam]

Hello, I am very new to biking world, and trying to decide between gw250 and intruder. The things that matter to me would be Smoothness, comfort, maintenance, torque, and highway (100 km Max).

I like the looks of both, but do understand they are a completly different types of bikes. Not sure which one is overall better in the above factors. Any advise - or perhaps advise on how should i decide. Thanks..

Cheers,

I sold lots of both whilst at WMCC, and I think the VL is by far the better bike.

Great. Thanks for making it simple. Although I am not into the looks of Suzuki s40 (also called LS650), however, is that by any chance better for the above criteria that I have mentioned?

No. I'd far rather ride the v twin VL from Welly to Auckland than a big single. Too vibey.
