Pros and Cons in comparison

Suzuki V-Strom 1050 2024

With the revision and expansion of the 1050 models, 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 the standard model a reliable travelling companion or even a buddy for every day, while 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. However, the main selling point remains the engine, which with its 107 Horsepower and, above all, its rich torque, leaves little to be desired.

High-torque motor High-quality electronics package

excellent ergonomics

extensive standard equipment

intuitive operation of the electronics

long-distance comfort

excellent wind and weather protection

good original equipment tyres

successful retro look

very confident riding performance

bike inspires a lot of confidence
