SUZUKIGZ250 Marauder 2008 - 2009

　　IIn 2009, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Suzuki GZ250 Marauder, a bike situated between the standard and cruiser-styled machines, a versatile and easy-to-handle bike that was best suited for newer riders.

　　The small Marauder motorcycle carried on until 2009 without any changes, and even more, Suzuki dropped the grey livery that was available for the 2008 model and only stuck to the black color scheme.

　　The 2009 Suzuki GZ250 Marauder was an affordable, easy-to-operate entry-level cruiser that featured the classic styling of larger cruisers. In the aesthetic department, the bike featured chromed cylinder head covers, horn housing, a large cruiser-style fuel tank with emblems, rear fender suspension struts, and a two-piece seat with a low seating position.

　　In the performance department, the Marauder had its heartbeat set by a 249cc four-stroke single-cylinder air-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 20 hp with a peak at 7,500 rpm and 21 Nm (15 lb-ft) of maximum torque available at 6,500 rpm.

　　For braking performance, the bike packed a 275 mm disc with a hydraulic caliper on the front and a 130 mm drum unit on the rear, fitted on a set of wire-spoked wheels.

　　From the first day when it was introduced, the Marauder didn't feature any design changes, except in 2004 when the fuel efficiency was improved by a redesigned combustion chamber.
