one of the most reliable adventure bikes made period

I live in Germany and I had this bike for a couple of years. It's ugly, but boy is it fun to ride! It pulls like a harley and has very good top end power with a rather sporty chassis which makes it handle like a sportsbike. The design, ergonomics and the sound make you feel like you're riding a spaceship. This bike is a hidden champ. I had a lot of fun with it in the alps.

Had a 2011 650 V-strom, loved the bike but it was too tall for me. Real dependable.

Now for something totally different. I have a 2012 V-strom 677 myself!

Clutch chudder… Mine had it. The clutch basket gets a decent play. Design flaw suzuki refused to admit. Sent mine to Hardymoto in germany which applied the fix. Never had a problem since
