Beschrijving
The Suzuki Madura is a cruiser motorcycle sold by Suzuki in 1985 and 1986. It was available with either 1200 cc or 700 cc It was created as a response to Honda's Magna V4 muscle cruiser and was a direct competitor with Yamaha's V-Max power cruiser, also released in 1985.
The Madura had a V-four engine with hydraulic lifters. The lifters reduced maintenance, and avoided the kind of cam-wear problems that plagued all but the 500cc versions in the Magna line.
In addition to the maintenance-free lifters, the Madura had a self-adjusting hydraulically actuated clutch, and a low-maintenance, shaft final drive. The rear suspension was a sophisticated mono shock arrangement that used a single rear swing arm tube to carry the driveshaft as well.
Ergonomically, the Madura features a low, scooped seat,(30. 7in ) swept-back handle-bars, and foot-controls that wouldn't be considered "forward" by later standards, but at the time were noted for being 14" ahead of the centre of the seat. This 1200 cc Madura is a running bike , you may have noticed on the images that there is some sealer at the base of the tank so the previous owner may have found a small leak although we have not investigated further.
