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
