|  Suzuki Marauder - first bike - any advice
Hello all. My wife and I are considering a 2001 Suzuki Marauder VZ800 as our first motorcycle. It has 19,000 miles and is in excellent condition. My question - is this a good choice for a "first" bike? Will we outgrow it in a year or can this be a longer-term investment? The reason we like this bike is that it looks nice and it is light enough for both of us to handle (neither of us are large people). We plan to ride together sometimes, but mostly this will be a commuter vehicle for me. My commute is less than 15 miles one way. Also, are there any issues with the Marauder I should know about before buying? The seller is asking around $3000 for it which seems fairly reasonable, but then I am not up on what these things are worth. Any opinions, comments or advice would be greatly appreciated. We hope to become riders soon and contribute to these forums as such. Thanks. |
