As for the Madura, I could look through some old magazines for a test, but I remember some Suzuki riders calling it the Manure. Suzuki also used that V-4 engine in a touring bike called the Cavalcade. I think it got good reviews.

I've heard the nickname as well, mostly from elitist v65 owners. Everything I've read from actual owners and vintage reviews have been fairly glowing with exception to fuel range. But at 2k or less I see no downside to trying it out
