It's a great bike. Proud owner of a yellow one here in Brizzy. I've mounted protection bars and looking forward to a couple of local off-road o/night trips before years end.

@@chrispekel5709 Not yet Chris - still working on getting my setup for o/nighters - accessories are not so available here in Oz. The holidays, excessive rain and back to work (you know life? 😉) have slowed things down somewhat. I'll let you know when I do! 😬

Lol, VStrom SX is winning trophies in off road events in Columbia and other markets. Even motocross riders overseas are praising the bike as it is a lightweight ADV and feels like a dirt bike The bike is off road capable, only the Indian reviewers are not capable to take it off road and the general public here is gullible

@@villan0379 Thank you for telling this loud and clear. Indian media is about money and paid promotions, very limited auto journalists speak truth on screen. V-Strom250 is a bike never to be judged by the spec sheet.
