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.

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

Ducati Multistrada 950 S 2019

Ducati Multistrada 950 S 2019

The Multistrada 950 S skilfully combines several Ducati models to create a superior touring enduro in the upper mid-range. The look remains almost unchanged from the big Multistrada 1260 - which of course gives it enormous prestige. The 114 hp engine comes from the Hypermotard series, and although the little Multi S has to carry 30 kilos more than the Hypermotard 950, it can still be ridden at a brisk pace. It should go without saying that comfort is a top priority on a touring enduro. Equipped with a wealth of electronics, it can do everything a modern touring bike has to do, and with the electronically adjustable Skyhook suspension, it also offers an extremely fine extra.

Electronically adjustable Skyhook chassis

elegant look of the big 1260 sisters

cultivated engine

stable brakes

comfortable seating position

comprehensive electronics package

good, height-adjustable windshield.

Expensive

saddle integrated deep into the machine is not everyone's cup of tea

hardly suitable for off-road use on an enduro.
