Pros and Cons in comparison

Suzuki V-Strom 800DE 2025

It's amazing how much an unagitated, practical all-round motorbike like the Suzuki V-Strom 800DE can get to your heart. It is probably due to this clever design with manageable electronic features that can be optimally customised to personal needs. Thanks to the excellent Ride-by-Wire system, the engine is more powerful in the lower range than the displacement would suggest and does everything right both on and off-road. With 220 millimetres of travel at the front and rear, the suspension is really well trimmed for off-road, but clearly also offers an advantage for road riders on bad roads. The ergonomics are good so far, only tall riders should consider the higher, optional seat due to the somewhat acute knee angle.

Great engine

fully adjustable suspension

manageable, clever electronic features

great quickshifter up/down series

very practical bike

harmonious and pleasant handling on asphalt and road

extremely versatile bike

very robust construction - bike looks reliable and inspires confidence

acute knee angle for riders with long legs on standard seat

maximum lean angle on tarmac brakes sporty riders

Adjustable windscreen only with tools

high weight is annoying when manoeuvring

Suzuki V-Strom 1050DE 2025

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.

powerful engine

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
