Nice video. I've ridden my '17 650 across three states to Sturgis and other destinations. Very reliable and comfortable bike

Awesome and big thanks for your input on that. At first, I was wondering if I made a good decision. Now I'm very satisfied.

my 19 seat is very comfy, I put after market pads front and rear, it stops like my Street Triple. After 65 bikes 63 years of riding I found the V storm 650, it is superb. Plenty of grunt.

just bought a used one, 650 xt 2020 model with only 9000 km on the clock...(Bangalore, India) am a little disappointed with the muted sound, so will probably have to do some mods or put an aftermarket exhaust. Am loving it so far...plush suspension and plush everything compared to my Triumph Street Twin 900. Neat review here.

It is a quiet machine and it took me some time to get used to it. I prefer a beefier sound as well. Thank u for your input!

Nice review. They are as reliable as an anvil. 180 000 miles is not uncommon on that motor. They are very popular here in South Africa. Many aftermarket accessory options too.

No disrespect but you must have limited experience to find the V-Strom seat uncomfortable, as well as to consider 1600 trouble-free miles any form of achievement. That said , great bike, congrats, enjoy, and for the record, I'm 5.7 and its absolutely no problem. One of the lowest ADVs out there. All the best with your channel.

You can probably get a better midsized adventure bike than a V-Strom 650, but certainly not for anywhere near the same reasonable cost as a V-Strom. And that 645cc 90 degree twin engine is pure magic.
