Designed for a wide range of riding styles, from long-distance touring to everyday commuting, the V-STROM 800 combines the dependable engineering V-STROM riders expect with innovative features for enhanced performance and rider satisfaction. Powered by Suzuki’s new-generation 776cc DOHC parallel-twin engine, it delivers smooth, controllable power at low speeds and an exhilarating rush at higher RPMs, all while producing a distinctive exhaust note reminiscent of its V-twin predecessors.Features may include: Engine The 776cc parallel-twin DOHC engine delivers a superb balance of smooth controllable torque-rich power from low RPM and freely revs up to its peak power output. The 270-degree crankshaft configuration provides similar power delivery characteristics as the 90-degree V-twins used in other V-STROM models while producing a unique and exciting exhaust note. The spaced nature of the engine’s power pulses enhances traction and contributes to strong power output at all road speeds, to help make the V-STROM 800 a joy to command. Suzuki Cross Balancer technology, patented by Suzuki, helps create a compact, lightweight design that delivers smooth operation. Chassis Designed around the compact parallel twin engine and constructed with rugged steel pipe, the V-STROM 800’s backbone style frame was engineered to provide the strength needed for excellent straight-line stability and nimble handling when negotiating urban traffic or touring at highway speeds. Matched to the V-STROM 800’s chassis geometry and suspension is a uniquely shaped aluminum swingarm that enhances vertical, lateral, and torsional rigidity to aid straight-line performance and controlled cornering. Electrical The S.I.R.S. suite includes the Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (SDMS), the Suzuki Traction Control System (STCS), Suzuki Easy Start system, Low RPM Assist System and the Bi-directional Quick Shift System (QS) that supports the rider in a variety of conditions. The V-STROM 800’s instrument panel uses a full-color, 5-inch, TFT LCD screen. Body & Styling Retaining the prominent “beak” that was pioneered on Suzuki’s legendary DR-Z Dakar racer and the large DualSport DR-Big, the lines of the body work are sharper with flatter surfaces to create a tough yet sophisticated look. Different colored panels feature angular lines that further amplify the V-STROM 800’s modern, aggressive look. The V-STROM 800 has a wide tapered handlebar cast in strong yet flexible aluminum that allows it to flex and absorb shock. The handlebar’s wide grip position helps provide good feedback to the rider.
