Good solid build. I bought a 4 year old model, and could have got a new Chinese import for less, but I wanted the reliability of a Japanese bike. Looks better as well.

I bought one of these new in November '07 and loved every minuite on the bike.
As a new rider I took to is straight away and quickly gained confidence. Un fortunatly the bike was written off in March after some nob decided to u-turn in fron of me without any warning!
Now I've been paid compo I'm getting a new one again and I can't wait!
A lovely machine

The Suzuki Intruder is a fantastic bike, i've got a 1999 version and was (up untill now) doing great, but now it needs new parts (as does anything after 9 years) but can i find these parts anywhere? the awnser is NO! I need new parts for my carburetor or maybe a whole new one- I think I have more chance my nan passing one through her backside before I can get one, and don't think of doing any work yourself because I think they run out of ink before printing any workshop manuals for it because it ...

Great bike and will comfortably run at 50/60 mph will hit 70/75 but is a little unsteady due to the smaller wheels than the bigger engine equivalents. Winter can be a pain due to the carb freezing but Silolene will make it run a little better but will still need you to keep the revs up to prevent stalling.

An amazing bike, I brought this Suzuki VL 125 Intruder just a couple of months ago and I'm in love. The looks are impeccable and its quite punchy for a 125 reaching 80 odd MPH, although it hasn't got the strongest top end theres plenty of power there when you wanna give it some and get away. Handles well and will happily do long journeys, i often commute from Ipswich to Southwold and have had no problems. The v-twin engine and the chromed exhaust (I've got the "two into one" model) make it look ...

This is my first bike and have been riding it for a year now. It's a great bike as it looks good and can reach a decent speed. I used to travel from London to Ipswich every other weekend on the bike and it was a comfortable journey. I am doing my test soon so I can carry a pillion and I intend to keep it for another year because I like it so much! I also used it to commute and it is great for filtering because people tended to move out of the way which I'm sure they don't for scooters. Overall t ...

Bought a Suzuki VL 125 Intruder earlier this year for the wife who had only got one of those 'twist & go' things! She was really impressed with the big bike look and all the chrome. Although it's only a 125 it gets plenty of heads turning and nods from other passing bikers.
The exhaust noise is a little quiet but saying that it was soon solved with a set of 'flatpipes' attached to the rear half of the exhaust. Now I can really, and I mean really wake up the neighbours and make the windows rattl ...

Wow, is what I first said when my mate rode round on his Suzuki VL 125 Intruder 125, after that, all I wanted was one of these! Its much better than the 2-smoke wanna be superbikes around as it has much more street presence, looks an well, anything can sound better eh? It may look like a big tourqeie bike, but the power in this bike is quite a way up the rev range, so to get a lot of speed/acceleration your gonna have to gun it a little, but sayin that, if you want speed, your not gonna buy this ...
