Pros and Cons in comparison
Suzuki V-Strom 1050DE 2023
With the revision and expansion of the 1050 models, Suzuki now has the right big V-Strom for everyone. Those who know from the outset that they will stay almost exclusively on the road will find the standard model a reliable travel companion or even a buddy for all days; those who want to limit themselves less in their choice of routes and also want to ride regularly on unpaved terrain will now find the DE a good choice. The main argument, however, remains this engine, which with its 107 hp and above all its rich torque leaves hardly anything to be desired.

If you want to, you can also conquer challenging off-road terrain with it. However, those who don't have to cover long distances will yet prefer the lightness of the standard T7. The World Raid's wide tank is noticeable in its ergonomics and handling. The high-quality suspension, on the other hand, copes well with tough off-road passages and, thanks to the steering damper, the bike remains very stable even on fast dirt tracks. 6-axle IMU and Ride-by-Wire also allow the integration of cornering ABS, drift and lean angle-sensitive traction control on the Ténéré long-distance flagship. However, the quickshifter must be paid for separately. The bottom line is that, in keeping with its name, the World Raid is aimed particularly at world travellers and is very well thought out in this respect with a wide range and plenty of off-road comfort, yet not quite as comfortable as other touring enduros with a stronger focus on asphalt.
