Suzuki V-Strom 650 2015

Like the Kawasaki Versys, the small V-Strom is getting on a bit. The 1000 is so well done and easy to ride that you should consider taking the "big one" right away. In terms of versatility, however, the 650 is in no way inferior to the big V-Strom, and at a much lower price. But we wouldn't take it to the racetrack any more. And of course it has to cope with a heavy load more than a motorbike with 100+ hp.

Full torque

good sound

large tank

relaxed seating position

somewhat old-fashioned look

narrow handlebars

sluggish in bends

The new 800 has become a real V-Strom that can do what a V-Strom has to do. An everyday motorbike in the most positive sense, a bike for everyday use as well as for long journeys. It will certainly also appeal to the many fans of the V-Strom 650, as it has a significantly more powerful engine with otherwise similar attributes.

superior, powerful engine

great quickshifter up/down as standard

good brakes

good seat comfort and wind protection

suitable for long distances

accessible seating position

Off-road, the suspension is under-damped and not fully adjustable

maximum lean angle too low for sporty riding

no cruise control available

No off-road ABS
