Pros and Cons in comparison

Suzuki SV-7GX 2026

The Suzuki SV-7GX isn’t a bike for pub-talk heroes, but for clocking up real kilometres in everyday life. It combines the appealing V2 character with modern electronics, good wind protection and a price that’s really competitive in this class. You do feel the 211 kg when manoeuvring, and very tall riders or adrenaline junkies will be better off looking elsewhere. For everyone else, it’s an astonishingly well-rounded, accessible and highly recommendable Suzuki.

Excellent value for money

a leaner, familiar V2 character

a superb quickshifter

accessible ergonomics that suit many riders

great responsiveness from the engine

a comfortable ride

211 kg is noticeable when manoeuvring

too compact for very tall riders

the luggage rack is very sturdy but rather clunky in design

Suzuki V-Strom 800 2024

The Suzuki V-Strom 800 impresses in the travel test with its great balance. It is relaxed to ride in everyday life, remains comfortable on longer journeys and delivers more riding pleasure on winding roads than its sober appearance would suggest. It is precisely this versatility that makes it a strong travelling companion.

easy to handle, yet fun and powerful two-cylinder engine

high level of ride comfort

relaxed ergonomics

good-natured and predictable riding performance

balanced touring qualities

confident on varying tarmac surfaces

Suspension clearly comfort-orientated at very ambitious speeds

limited maximum lean angle

only suitable to a limited extent for rough off-road use (ABS cannot be disengaged)

wind protection for tall riders only okay, not brilliant
