  • Top Speed Run
    2002 Suzuki Marauder (not 2012...oops)
    Took my wife's 2002 Suzuki Marauder GZ250 to see what the Top Speed was. Needed to know if it would be too small for the highway....... It is.
    With a top speed of 120km/hr on a straight away. Most highways are 110km/hr. Would have difficulty on hills and the engine is screaming at that speed.

    I cleaned my dad's old gz250 and sold it to my riding buddy to be his son's first bike. That kid lives that bike and rides it everywhere! It's awesome to see his enthusiasm! They may be small, but they are still fun to ride!

    Was this the real speed or does the odometer overestimate the readings?

    My 1986 Honda Rebel 250 would only do 72 MPH. But I got 70 MPG. My Honda Shadow 650 got 35 mph but I wouldn't try to go more than 120 mph. I keep my testerone in check. Being able to cruise at 80 or 85 mph is nice

      ​@ICE a shadow 650 doesn't even exist. A shadow 600 us a 4 speed bike and isn't getting over a 100 mph but actually the 1980s Honda Shadow 700 and 750s would do 120 mph. In fact they are the quickest shadows to exist yes even faster than the old shadow 1100s and the new shadow 750s. They were high revving 6 speed liquid cooled biked in the 80s. The 700 and 750s are rated in the mid 60s for horsepower and the redline is about 8k. They will run mid to high 12s in the quarter

    the gz doesn't look like a 250 until you ride one, the problem with that starter bike is you grow out of it the second time you ride it, that's what happened to me, had to get a bigger bike

      I disagree. I have had mine for 5 years. Use it to run back and forth to work all week long. Granted I have a big v-twin for weekend fun. But I still love my 250. It will do anything you ask it to... except go fast 😏. Plus 95mpg is hard to beat.

      @@skidfrog I started with the gz250 and then bought a 800cc Suzuki Intruder, my buddy told me to get a bigger bike, he said you're gonna wish you went bigger than the 800cc, at first it was great, but I grew out of it fairly quick also, he was right, I felt like it should have another gear after 5th gear, now with the big bike, I have 6 gears but I rarely ever get it up to 6th gear unless I'm on the interstate but it's nice to know it's there if you need it.

    The suzuki 250 sounds the least stressed out on the highway. Which is funny with it being a single cylinder.

      I never rode another 250 so can’t say for sure. But there is a bit of wind noise to cover up the sound.
