Segment: Custom/Cruiser
Production years: 2000, 2001
If you dig the Intruder style but feel like an 1500cc-class cruiser is out of your league, the 2001 VS800 Intruder may be a nifty alternative, as it retains the classic style and chopper looks, while offering a more tempered character from its 805cc v-twin. The 2001 MY has received new colors and graphics, but the authentic chopper style is just the same.
A skinny front wheel, laced rims, plush seats and a miniature passenger backrest, a blacked-out engine, chromed details and a manageable, non-intimidating engine will make the time you spend on two wheels all the more rewarding. Equally suitable for longer trips and urban/ sub-urban commuting, daily city slicing and all.
