V-Strom 1000 ABS 2014 - Rider Review

[@Swaggerlot]

It does NOT have linked brakes and it does operate off sealed roads very well. The ABS is excellent, both on sealed and off sealed roads.

I love the new V-Strom 1000. Just wish changing the headlights would be as easy as on the Super Tenere 1200

Love the V-strom!! Buddy of mine just got the KLR that's a awesome bike too!

[@kennyraceboy]

Mr. Dirt-Lovin it is quite a nice bike, and KLR's have an insane amount of versatility!

If I was going to get a duel sport It would be the V strom.. I have seen a lot of people ride them and they like them a lot. great review. RSM8

[@kennyraceboy]

***** thanks, yeah it seems like a really great bike. But I just wish it were a little but more off road than it is. which is why I might try a super tenere.

[@lorenzomann7993]

The V-Strom is really nice and I agree it is NOT a dual sport and will never an off road bike. I look forward to your review of the Super Tenere, let us know what you think of the weight of the Super T. Thanks!

[@kennyraceboy]

Lawritz Mann Yeah, its a shame really, or i would have really considered just buying the v-strom. I'll keep you posted on how the Tenere goes.

[@nickosteel2]

Keen to check out the Super Tenere myself, looking forward to your view! Also.... Where did you get your Icon Variant with as1698 stickers? Ive searched high and low to no avail.

[@kennyraceboy]

Yeah, me too! I bought my helmet from a website called helmetwarehouse, but hey don't have much of a range these days.

[@TheGrazer91]

Are you going to sell or trade in the mighty klr?

[@kennyraceboy]

TheGrazer91 Well I'm going to try keep it in the family, and pass it on to my father. so more than likely you will still see it around, and more vids will come out on it in the future. It would be very sad to see it go.

[@TheGrazer91]

kennyraceboy Looking forward to watching your videos whatever bike you end up getting. Keep them coming!

Check out the BMW gs 800 great bike on the road and can hog out in the dirt.

[@kennyraceboy]

Sean Robbins I would really like to own a F800 GS they are awesome bikes. Unfortunately they are a little bit out of my price range, for brand new/dealer demo.

[@gtrmick73]

I agree Sean, you get a lot of bike for less than $20 k
