The shaft-drive V-twin engines were produced in mid-range 750/800 capacities and big bore 1400/1500/1600cc variants and from the late 1990s these powered three different styles of cruiser – the chopper style VS Intruder, the fat-wheeled, ‘50s retro style VL Intruder C (which in the US was also called the Volusia) and the more hot rod style VZ Marauder, which, to add further confusion, was in the UK called the M800 or M1600 Intruder.
