The latest version of Suzuki's best-selling, go-anywhere
adventure tourer, the V-Strom 650, has touched down in
Australia.
A perfect fit for riders wanting a multipurpose machine as
capable on the streets as it is on outback roads, the Suzuki
V-Strom 650 offers extreme versatility to suit the Australian
terrain and lifestyle.
"There's no mystery why the Suzuki V-Strom 650 was the
best-selling adventure tourer in the country last year and
continues to be Suzuki's best selling V-Strom model in 2013," said
Suzuki Australia Motorcycles Marketing Manager Lewis Croft.
"The V-Strom 650 continues to set the benchmark in adventure
tourers with its focus on rider comfort and advanced
technology."
The fuel-injected 645cc, liquid-cooled, DOHC, 90-degree, V-Twin
engine delivers when the rider demands, with great low-to-mid-rpm
range torque and sporty quick-revving high rpm power for full-range
riding enjoyment.
Tailored for active sporty riders, the six-speed transmission
optimises power delivery while also ensuring outstanding fuel
economy.
Rider comfort remains a priority in the latest V-Strom 650, with
three-way height-adjustable windscreen to efficiently reduce wind
noise and rider fatigue.
The V-Strom 650 features a well-shaped functional seat, a slim
20-litre fuel tank and compactly tucked-in frame covers to make the
rider feel at one with the machine.
Its user-friendly chassis, built around a lightweight and rigid
twin-spar aluminium-alloy frame and swingarm, delivers a
comfortable performance package for enjoyable adventure touring
rides.
An upright riding position, long-stroke front and rear
suspension and lightweight aluminium-alloy wheels with specifically
designed tyres complete the suspension package.
The V-Strom 650's Antilock Braking System ensures ultimate
traction on the road, with the brakes monitoring input and wheel
speed, matching stopping power to available traction.
Allowing riders to track their progress easily, the V-Strom
650's easy-to-read multi-function instrument cluster combines an
analogue tachometer with a large brightness adjustable LCD, with
readouts including gear position, ambient temperature and average
fuel consumption, in addition to speed, odometer, dual trip meter
and more.
