 
Start Your Own Legend
A throaty rumble beloved of all V-Twin enthusiasts.  Long, low and outrageously laid-back classic riding style.  
Deep, rich paintwork on the big fenders and voluminous tank contrasting with the glittering chrome. 
805 cc, 45-degree V-Twin engine is styled for a bold, timeless visual statement and designed for the utmost efficiency in power delivery and torque output.  
On the low, gorgeous leather-grain seat, you'll find the perfect riding position to stretch out and appreciate both round-town riding and long weekend cruising,
while the raked-back front forks and the mono-shock absorber rear suspension -- mimicking the hard-tail lines of traditional cruisers -- offer you a plush ride. 
The Intruder C800.  It's a legend in the making.
