Suzuki V-Strom 1050 XT 2021

Even though the new V-Strom 1050 has moved up in price to a league in which it has to be compared more with the competition than before, it has remained true to itself despite the most modern safety features, or rather, it has remained an uncomplicated motorbike that is ready for the big journey. Its favourite terrain is the road, which, thanks to the good chassis, can also be bad and bumpy. Off-road passages are no problem either, but those who regularly seek rougher terrain will be less likely to end up with the Suzuki due to its mighty weight. On paved roads, however, the mass can be moved surprisingly quickly and effortlessly. The addictive engine, the successful retro design and the extreme suitability for touring make the Suzuki V-Strom 1050 XT a top motorbike for long journeys.

With the revision and expansion of the 1050 range to include the DE model, Suzuki now has the right large V-Strom for everyone. Those who know from the outset that they will be staying almost exclusively on the road will find a reliable travelling companion in the standard model, but those who are less restricted in their choice of routes and also want to ride regularly on unpaved terrain will now find a good choice in the DE. The machine looks robust, is easy to ride and offers a high level of long-distance comfort. The weight is too high for very serious off-road use and the travel is too short. However, as with the standard model, the main selling point remains the marvellous engine, which leaves little to be desired with its rich torque.
