Suzuki GZ250 Marauder
1998—

I have put tried to tell the Suzuki GZ 250 Marauder model history on this page as I know it. The page is still under construction. I would be grateful of any contributions — sales brochures, magazine ads, magazine articles, pictures, specs, facts, corrections etc. Please scan the material in JPEG format (large enough that all the details are visible) and send them to me. Please tell me the source and the publication date if possible. If you send me pictures of your own bike, please follow these instructions.

1998 Suzuki year code: W

The GZ250 Marauder is an American styled small cruiser with an air-cooled single cylinder four-stroke engine, presented for the first time in 1998. The model had basically the looks of its big brother VZ800 Marauder and the engine of the GN250. It had 14 liter fuel tank, a single 275 mm brake disc at the front and 130 mm drum at the rear. I hope you forgive me if all of the pictures on this page don't show the correct model year. I still need more info to be able to point out the differences between model years, if there are any.
