Suzuki V-Strom 1000 2016

Suzuki V-Strom 1000 2016

Suzuki V-Strom 1000 je v segmentu velikih enduro motociklov najugodnejši glede na ceno, vendar vam ni treba storiti ničesar - nadzor vleke in ABS sta standardna. Odlične zavore, veliko udobja in čudovito zmogljiv V-dvojni motor so sestavine, ki bi morale pritegniti skoraj vsakogar. Dejstvo, da s 100 KM ne igra v prvi ligi, nadoknadi čudovita moč, ki zagotavlja sproščeno vzdušje na dolgih potovanjih. Le zaščita pred vetrom z originalnim vetrobranskim steklom ni optimalna; treba je investirati v cenovno dostopno, nekoliko večje vetrobransko steklo.
