    But (BUT!) new ones are $10,990, so savings?!?
    My currency converter tells me that 6000 poonds is $15,994, so that's a non-saving of $5004....
    thats USD!!!!

    The Marauder VZ800 is still showing at Coleman's at $NZ10,990. No mention of the bigger Marauder though.
    The VL1500K3 is $NZ16,995 (Intruder). They've also got a GS1200SS for $NZ9995!
    When you compare these prices to other brands of the same size there certainly isn't much to moan about, eh! However, I'm sticking to my current ride for a while yet.

    It's a hard road boy.......so try not to land on it.

    Well, I dunno.
    I just went into bikepoint, did a new bke search, on Suzuki>Marauder 1600, and it came up with two, both $10,990.
    If it lied to me, why should I care? :spudwhat:
    I'm not about to buy one.

    What is it with all the HoggleyDoggleyWannabes anyway? :spudwhat:

    They all seem to have sexually aggressive names, to lure women to come and sit on them?
    Or is it as if to say, "I'm not some NancyBoy's bike - I'm a BadAss MoFo and I breaka you face if you get in my way!"
    I mean honestly: Marauder, Intruder, Savage, MeanStreak, Bandit, Virago (wild woman?!?). Wassup wid dat?!? :spudwhat:

    Why don't they go the whole hawg (in a manner of speaking) and call them stuff like:
    BigBadBallBreaker
    ButtBurglar
    TesticularTitan
    HornyHeathenFromHell
    MoFoMayhemMoto
    BigThrustingPenisCompensator
    HugeDickOnWheels

    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.
