What the Suzuki V-Strom 1000 was already very good at before, the new V-Strom 1000 is also very good at: a well-balanced motorbike that does not shy away from a sporty riding style with good long-distance capability. Added to this are modern features such as ABS and Combined Brake System, which make riding even safer and faster. Suzuki takes criticism seriously, the windshield has been enlarged and, in line with the trend, the V-Strom 1000 is now also available in a slightly more off-road XT version with wire-spoke wheels, which not only increase stability but also the cool look - especially with the yellow paint. Besides all these advantages, the low price remains the absolute killer argument for the Suzuki V-Strom 1000.
