Suzuki V-Strom 1000 2014
V segmentu velkých enduro motocyklů zaujímá Suzuki V-Strom 1000 pozici motocyklu s nejlepším poměrem ceny a výkonu, přesto se nemusíte obejít bez ničeho - dokonce i kontrola trakce a ABS jsou součástí standardní výbavy. Výborné brzdy, skvělý komfort a úžasně výkonný véčkový motor jsou ingredience, které by měly oslovit téměř každého. To, že se svými 100 koňmi nehraje první ligu, vynahrazuje skvělý průběh výkonu, který zajišťuje pohodovou atmosféru na dlouhých cestách. Pouze ochrana proti větru není s originálním čelním sklem optimální; je třeba investovat do cenově dostupného, o něco většího čelního skla.
