Segment: Custom/Cruiser
Production years: 2000, 2001
The 2001 MY VZ800 Marauder is a middleweight cruiser which packs a significant amount of bobber DNA. The rear fender is a classic chooper one, but the front fender is skinnier and mated to a beefy tire shoeing a cast aluminium rim. Forward-mounted foot controls are accompanied by pull-back bars with gauges mounted on top, a bulbous teardrop tank and bullet-style exhausts, with liberal use of chrome all over the bike, but without making it look blingy.
