Pros and Cons in comparison

Suzuki V-Strom 800 2023

Suzuki V-Strom 800 2023

The V-Strom 800 surprises with a high level of comfort, superior handling and sensible features ex works. The Adventure and DE versions in particular demonstrate touring expertise with character. If you are on the road a lot and attach importance to overview, comfort and utility, this is the right bike for you.

Well thought-out ergonomics with a good overview in city and touring mode

practical suspension with easily adjustable preload

standard features (such as heated grips and panniers) ideal for frequent riders

good balance between comfort and control

Limited tilt angle

Engine mapping very cosy

Rather nervous at low revs

Rough quickshifter

Suzuki GSX-S1000GT 2023

Suzuki GSX-S1000GT 2023

The Grand Touring variant of the GSX-S combines the supersport genes of the model series with an amazing amount of touring potential. The top chassis and the bombastic engine guarantee riding pleasure. At the same time, the ergonomics are versatile enough to make relaxed stages possible. As a genuine sports tourer, the Suzuki takes both sport and touring seriously and manages this compromise extremely well. Only the gear ratio could be a little shorter for country road use and technocrats might miss lean angle-dependent systems. Apart from that, however, the GSX-S GT offers lavish features and a well-rounded overall package.

Awesome engine with lots of torque from the centre

Stable chassis

Versatile ergonomics

Good sound

Top quickshifter

Good price-performance ratio

Rather long gear ratio

windscreen not adjustable

no lean angle sensor

shock could do with more damping
