Ignore anything about carb mods on this site. :2tup:
Thanks for the info As I don't have the physical bike at home as it's in storage (sucks by the way) it does only say S on the tank. I don't think I'll be modifying mug to the bike at this time. One more thing I like about this website. Attenion to detail.

Cheers!!!
Interesting that there is just an "S" on the tank. The speedo should read in Metric if it is a real Canadian model.

Re: Hello from Toronto Canada!!!

The newer models done away with the "Marauder" logo and just use the "S"

Welcome aboard!

Man if my bike was stored in a bike shop all winter I would stand there every day with my nose mashed into the glass...

Re: Hello from Toronto Canada!!!

Hey abarbs, first of all, welcome! Stock or modified, these GZ's are good, dependable, and easy to work on. And as long as you're not looking for a road rocket, it'll hold it's own in most traffic.
