Suzuki V-Strom 800DE 2024

It's amazing how much an unagitated, practical all-round motorbike like the Suzuki V-Strom 800DE can get to your heart. It is probably due to this clever design with manageable electronic features that can be optimally customised to personal needs. Thanks to the excellent Ride-by-Wire system, the engine is more powerful in the lower range than the displacement would suggest and does everything right both on and off-road. With 220 millimetres of travel at the front and rear, the suspension is really well trimmed for off-road, but clearly also offers an advantage for road riders on bad roads. The ergonomics are good so far, only tall riders should consider the higher, optional seat due to the somewhat acute knee angle.
Suzuki GSX-8R 2024

The Suzuki GSX-8R takes the popular and excellent recipe of the 8S and packs it into a high-quality package in the road sports class. With its lively riding performance, it can score points on country roads without being too extreme for everyday use. Although the price is higher than its naked bike sister, those who want a sportier bike should go for the GSX-8R.
