Great video. It’s fantastic when motorcycle manufacturers offer road and off-road models of their bikes. Ironically the road versions see little press but they’re the ones most people need. Thanks for showing some love to the street 800.

Absolutely! It's important to show off different models because everyone has different tastes and styles.

Great comparism, but unlike as mentioned in titles 3:05 i guess that Standard version 800 has not 17in. wheels but 19" in front and tubeless. DE version has 21 + 17 with tubes.

The ONLY thing stopping me from buying the DE is the tubed tyres. At 70 years old the last thing I need is to be using tyre levers on a hard walled tyre in the Australian outback in summer. If tubeless tyres are good enough for Aprillia, BMW etc then should also be for Suzuki.

Suzuki hit a home run with the 800. Sadly people are led to believe the TAlp is better.

I test rode both and thought I would love the V-Strom 800 more - I nearly bought one without a test ride before. But honestly..I liked the Transalp way more. The motor of the TAlp sounds great with the stock exhaust - you can barely hear the Strom's Motor. The Strom has slightly more torque in low and mid range..but if you rev the Honda a bit, it works astonishing great. The TAlp feels better in the Twisties - just a bit nimbler. What I also liked more on my TA testride is the seating position. Both bikes are comfortable but on the TA you're sitting "in" the bike and not "on" the bike what I personally prefer. I don't really like the look of both bikes. The Strom is a bit ugly (that big exhaust does not make it better) and the TA looks boring with that CB500X headlight. The gear changes / transmission on the Honda worked a bit better for me than on the Strom. What also was a bit annoying on the Strom was the engine heat on the right leg. So..on paper (beside the weight), the Strom is the better bike for me. But after a testride, I would prefer the TA. I guess everyone is different - that's why testrides are so important.

I agree.also for an average high guy,transalp is better in handling.i am 5.10,i had many high bikes,but vstrom is too bulky,too wide to heavy.they say it has better suspention so its better off road,but,who will handle that mass off road?you must be over 6 feet.anyway,both bikes for their prices,are not something special.and vstrom is too ugly also

I looked at the SE (RE in the UK), and bought the DE a week ago, and I love it, even though my off-road riding will be limited. The slightly larger height fitted me very well, and no cruise, minor vibes small screen and some heat makes zero difference to my riding needs - it’s just a fantastic bike. It’s no noticeably heavier than my old L4 650 Vstrom, it more power, more comfortable, and the QS is fun! Regarding the Vstrom/Pstrom concerns, c’mon, get over this, it makes no difference! Try it, I. Sure you’ll enjoy the ride! 😀🙏

Just an FYI. There is a cruse control available. I put one on my KTM390ADV. A company that is putting out a quality kit. I would post the name but I am not trying to market stuff for them. Just help others. The name starts with the letter "V" It's up to you. I am thinking hard about the strom 800.. Good vid.

It is no longer a V twin, its a Parallel Twin. Should it not be a PT Strom?

When comparing the two bikes the standard model is more geared for road riding, making it more fun to ride strictly on the road. The DE model is still a good time on the pavement, but it is obviously more off-road oriented.

I sat on the 800 standard. Im about 6'1-6'2 and 200lbs. I never felt such an uncomfortable adv bike stock. It is made as a very budget adv for new riders. I have almost 120k miles on my 02 vstrom 1k.

I disagree.... pick different roads if your using/wanting cruise contoll with this bike... or a different bike cause your riding roads dominated by cruiser/gold wing crowd. I own a 2024 800de unit and it's mint!

Veridian Cruise makes an aftermarket cruise control for the V-strom. Ordered mine and the company is making great install videos too.
