Pros and Cons in comparison

Suzuki V-Strom 650 XT 2017

The V-Strom 650 XT may be getting on a bit, but it's still a good bike. Especially if you don't need a colour display and don't intend to leave the paved road. The 650 is an easy motorbike to ride and is hardly ever out of its depth. What's more, this model has already proven itself a zillion times over, which underlines its durability and longevity.

Simple, uncomplicated bike

proven technology

good price/performance ratio

Design and equipment are a bit outdated

very limited off-road capability

Suzuki V-Strom 650 2009

In principle, you can do anything with a V-Strom. It is, for example, a faithful hack'n moped that reliably gets you to work day after day. But it's also a weekend bike that you can take to the Kalte Kuchl or the Soboth on a Sunday. And of course, the V-Strom is particularly well suited for extended tours and trips.

Good-natured chassis

relaxed seating position

relatively powerful engine

aggressive exhaust trim

handguards

relaxed riding feel.

Not a really sophisticated look

windscreen a little too small.
