Suzuki V-Strom 1050DE 2024

Suzuki V-Strom 1050DE 2024

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.
