Overview[edit | edit source]
Suzuki DL1000 V-Strom Concept
The new V-Strom 1000 establishes itself as an
adventure-tourer with a more dominant presence compared to its predecessor. More
importantly, its 1000cc V-Twin engine has been completely redesigned and now
includes traction control for peace of mind while street riding. .
Beyond the engine, the aluminum
frame provides a basis for the bold, distinctive styling, giving it a more
aggressive stance than before. The broad seat, adjustable windscreen and
10-spoke wheels further hint at the Strom being more street-oriented than dirt.
An all-new luggage system, designed in conjunction with the bike itself,
provides plenty of storage space with easy on/off installation.
Suspension duties are now handled by
an inverted fork in front and single shock in rear. Both adjustable, though its
still unclear as to what extent. Radial-mount front calipers with ABS are sure
to provide strong stopping power.
