The 2003 MY VL1500 Intruder LC brings new style for the mirrors, but this is about all the difference from the older version. Customers will spend they bucks on 1462cc of air and oil-cooled displacement, with optimized power and torque delivery in the low and mid-range revs for enhanced streetability on both the highway and urban asphalt.
On the list we should also mention the hydraulic clutch and the smooth-shifting 5-speed transmission, a large volume exhaust, plush seating and comfy rider floorboards, plus retro tank-mounted instrumentation.
