Last year, Suzuki introduced the redesigned V-Strom 650 ABS that focused on more than comfort. It enhanced the running performance and in-town versatility of the popular V-Strom brand. The 645 cc, v-twin engine features outstanding performance in low-to mid rpm range and has impressive styling that stands out in form and function. The V-Strom 650 ABS is an environmentally friendly vehicle that has excellent fuel economy for daily commuting and weekend touring. The Suzuki V-Strom 650 is just what you dreamed of to tackle on your exotic getaway.

Fueling is crisp and clean, making for smooth launches and precise throttle control. The six-speed transmission changes gears nicely; first gear is quite low for easy slow-speed riding and top (sixth) gear will easily pull you into the 90 mph-plus range and then some. ABS is no longer an option for the V-Strom 650; it’s now standard equipment. The Bosh system been updated from the previous version – and it’s lighter and refined. It can’t be turned off, but that didn’t seem to matter off-road, since you can’t really ride the ‘Strom that fast on the dirt anyway for the ABS to become a nuisance. But on the street, the V-Strom’s ABS works well and you hardly know it’s there, though you certainly do when you need it.

There is plenty of knowledge to take in via the V-Strom instrument cluster – it’s all right there in easy-to-read format with analog readout on the left and digital on the right. You have all the usual necessity info on top, including dual trip meters, a gear-select indicator, ambient temperature, clock and even a road freeze warning indicator.  Overall, there isn’t much not to like about the Suzuki V-Strom 650 ABS. It’s a machine that can carry you comfortably anywhere you want to go and maybe even where you don’t want to go – like the office. But that all changes on the weekend. Slap on the bags and the V-Strom is instantly ready for an overnight getaway adventure.
