V-Strom® 650 & 650ABS

If you're looking for adventure, here's the machine to help you find it - the V-Strom 650. It combines the versatile performance of the V-Strom 1000 with exciting middleweight agility. Now available with the added safety and piece of mind of Suzuki's Antilock Braking System (ABS)

With its height-adjustable aerodynamic windshield and spacious riding position, the V-Strom 650 is designed for smooth, comfortable performance on the highway. In addition, it has an extra-large fuel tank for extended riding. It's equally at home around town, thanks to its low seat height, light weight and overall crisp handling. And the V-Strom's V-twin engine adds excitement to every ride, offering a wide powerband and strong acceleration in every gear.

What really sets the V-Strom apart from other street bikes, of course, is its unmatched versatility. Its lightweight, agile handling inspires confidence, while its smooth suspension front and rear performs exceptionally well in almost any situation.

It's time to get in on the adventure - with the Suzuki V-Strom 650.
