    1400?! That's a big bike, but Kaplan's a big guy, and he make this bike look small. BTW - that bike has an awesome sound to it for a Suzuki, and an '87 -- looks new, can't believe it.👍

      Big engine in a small frame. Sounds awesome, and it is.

    I've always thought that the VS 1400 maintains a really clean and good-looking chopper style. I've seen some that have been turned into bobber, and the proportions just look off. If the stock VS 1400 came with a 21-inch front wheel and maybe a slightly wider stance or slightly lowered front forks, that could also be pretty cool.
    Wait, it's 2:56 there are say hello?

    Wasn‘t there a model in 86/87 with a dragbar? I only got the buckhorn bar. Since i live in Germany i‘d need an original dragbar without having to go to tüv (somewhat like dmv) and have it added into the papers for quite some money. Does anyone know if you can get the original dragbar anywhere?

      Yes, its under the swingarm and a real PITA to get to, the Intruder in general has some bizare things about it, 2 different carbs, different jets, a high speed and a low speed sync cable to name a few, but its a cool bike for sure
