Suzuki V-Strom 1000 2018

Suzuki V-Strom 1000 2018

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.

Suzuki V-Strom 1050DE 2024

Suzuki V-Strom 1050DE 2024

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.

simple but high-quality electronics package with intuitive operation

good ergonomics both sitting and standing

gravel mode for off-road beginners

off-road ABS function

balanced long-distance comfort

robust, tough and reliable

successful retro look

reasonable price

seems large and somewhat unwieldy when manoeuvring

above-average weight

travel could be greater
