Suzuki Vstrom 250SX Quick Ride Review

[@kevinmanaloto306]

Someone obviously had so much fun and forgot to do a proper review. It only goes to show that this bike has a lot to offer for all the adventurers out there.

[@TrevorHedge]

Really short ride experience on only one in the country, short and sharp. Full review will come when bikes get released and we can get some quality time on one. But with the time we had, this was all we could do.

[@renelement]

Great video quality! Those slow-motion shots look spectacular. Greetings from Mexico

[@bazza8947]

$6500 is a bargain! I remember the CRF250L was around the same priced when it was released.

[@MiJi_29]

Before Inflation kicks in, everything was cheap at the same value

[@ADSCoachSimonB2112]

It’s a fantastic bike if you can get one, many of the dealers have sold out or won’t sell it and want to sell you bigger bikes

[@KeepItSimpleSailor]

It’s weird - I went to a dealer today, and he didn’t want to talk about the wee strom at all, much less allow a test ride.

[@rob102865]

"...we are going all the places we are not suppose to go!" Yeah... right! haha ...but that's exactly what makes riding really fun. 😄👌

[@josealejandrovelezquiroz5970]

I'm watching this video from Colombia because this bike isn't comming yet and I was thinking on buying a Bajaj Dominar 400 instead, but you have show me how fun and good looking is than machine that I have no doubt this is the bike for me, I'll wait for it.

[@Kalitan_Tokkekk82]

citarasa kita sama bro, saya dari Malaysia.. saya pun tertunggu-tunggu kedatangan motor ni, nampak sesuai dengan ketinggian.. harap-harap sampailah, dan kita akan ride sama-sama, walaupun berbeza negara👌👌🤭🤭

Love your review and sincere truth' Appreciate your Love care and information 💕

[@jf9979]

Looks like fun

[@azizulzulzaha]

I cant wait for triumph tiger 400, possibly looks somewhat like the vstrom

[@DibagusAryoseto]

you deserve a double thumbs up, quite elaborating what the suzuki sx is capable of when doing some light offroad.. but still curious what about comparing it to KTM 250 adventure.. what'd you say? and which one will you pick? since in my country, suzuki motorcycle is kind of in the edge position, tbh i am really interested with this bike, but then doubting about the spare part and aftersales from suzuki. i can find more ktm's workshop rather than suzuki.. even though suzuki most probably the cheapest adventure bike here (versys 250x, ktm adventure 250, crf rally is really expensive way more than ktm). so i want to know what you think about those two.. all i can find the downside on suzuki is not the ability to turn off rear wheel abs i suppose?

[@lachlancannard]

KTM don't sell any 250's in Aus.

[@DibagusAryoseto]

@@lachlancannard daaayymm, that's too bad.. Thank you for the information though, cheers!

[@reywindynaufalfamily6660]

Bagus ini mas drpd ktm... secara realibiltas dan durability.... sederhana dari semua sisi... hanya ada abs saja

[@DibagusAryoseto]

@@reywindynaufalfamily6660 eeehhh ada sesama warga negara nih kesini juga hehehe.. Iya sih om, secara brand sih emang jepang vs austria, tp dua2nya sama2 dibuat di india sih, yaa mari kita tunggu aja mas si suzuki ini sliweran, sukur2 kalau bisa ada acara test ride dr suzuki, atau kenal ama yang punya jadi bisa coba hehe.

[@reywindynaufalfamily6660]

@@DibagusAryoseto kalau SX250 bakal sliweran sih engak, karena bakal dibatasi kuota import nya, kasusnya kaya inazuma dulu... Pembelinya ya para penggemar suzuki.. terlepas dari mana itu datangnya, dibuat dimana, kualitas mesin gak akan dikurangi oleh suzuki, apalagi SX ini jg akan dijual ke jepang

[@gammash]

Best motorcycle to get your saddle bags, go to remote areas of Africa and around the world. Forget heavy and complicated africa twin’s and bmw gs’s when planning to have fun globally.

[@ilhamsabirin4673]

Nice quick review.. out of 10 how much point would you give this bike?

[@Vicko026]

Good question! It’s gotta be up there. Obviously the design brief is being accessible and cheap. Hard to think of anything that comes close to it for the money. It’s be in the top few out of ten for sure. Should I start giving bikes a rating pit of yen in my full reviews?

[@sasokuzmanovski985]

Hi, What is the permited total weight load on this bike? Thank you Sasha

[@rhyshyrapiet]

Good review on the bike mate, where are those roads? On the peninsula?

[@TrevorHedge]

Those tracks are all on private property at a brewery

[@stahngood]

Small gear size 15T ?

[@MiJi_29]

Better than Indian Reviews

[@bjo132658]

Any phone connectivity and GPS navigation like the overseas models? I'm suspecting not, given the bargain basement $$$. Anybody know???

[@TrevorHedge]

I don't believe so Brian, no. Wouldn't expect it for that money!

[@chrispekel5709]

Why would you need it? Just mount a phone

[@bjo132658]

@chrispekel5709 apparently the phone and mapping takes up nearly half the screen (overseas), so I'm wondering if we just get a "50% screen" happening??? Or is the dash reprogrammed for a full display...for us???

[@chrispekel5709]

@@bjo132658 if they can squeeze a few extra dollars out of us with extras they will

[@chrispekel5709]

@@bjo132658 I'm still glad there's a bike like this being made. I'll bet the suspension is rubbish though

[@sudeepmore1525]

Very nice review👌 I will buy the VStrom 250 SX if Suzuki increase the suspension travel, increase the tank capacity to 15 litres, taller handlebar with a revised peg position for ease of riding when standing up on the pegs, also give switchtable ABS, a bit more low end torque and a stronger light.

[@brankog7]

AND ALL THAT AT THE SAME PRICE ?!

[@yan6639]

​@@brankog7Hahahaha 🤣

[@RekimNZ]

Hey Wayne, great review fella.... are you still riding the Triumph with a zillion KM's on it ??

[@Vicko026]

Yep, did another couple of hundred on it today ;)

[@FajarSany]

It's only around $4000 here in indonesia

[@rafzody34nanoz]

Here in Philippines around 4,200

[@therollingwheelz]

front shock not yet USD?

[@pavankumarv5356]

Nope. And it's still 125 mm travel

[@doanrademeyer3180]

Very good review, just add music

[@Mimolimotimo]

It’s the occasional exhaust notes

[@redbuitenzorg]

Will it be difficult to ride for 5.6 feet height man?

[@TrevorHedge]

Should be perfect for you Charlie. Go grab a test ride!

[@gasdive]

6500 is "cheap" but it's annoying that they're 3800 AUD in India. Surely they could sell them for 4500

[@jdnaveen321]

4.5k only in india

[@tomhuang8635]

真的很可惜，臺灣沒有這樣的路可以騎，不然一定大賣。

[@terasrumahdiy5184]

bro that bike tire is for semi off road. i think it would still enjoyable on the road

[@keithd1219]

Cheap as chips 😆

[@allwheeldrivesn]

do your research, you drove the motorcycle, it's a twin cylinder

[@TrevorHedge]

The old one was... this new one isn't. Here's some reading for you: www.mcnews.com.au/2023-suzuki-v-strom-250sx-review-specifications/
