VStrom SX 5 Negatives | Buying Decision guide | Rana Rover

[@PRADEEPDSILVA-zs1sh]

1. Less electronics, less complication. Suzuki's decision to keep the electronics and instrument cluster to a basic is wise. Even VStrom 650 has a very basic instrument cluster and electronics. That's why it's so reliable and dependable. 2. Indicators - not really a negative. 3. Seat height - Dude, it's a tall bike for a reason. Adventure tourer hai. The centre of gravity matters a lot in high speeds, 130-140 kmph 4. Engine guard - I agree. they could have given more protection. It's definitely a negative. 5. Suspension - Again.. for the stability in long rides in fast highways. Soft suspension nai chalta bhaiya. Anyway nice presentation. Keep up the good work bro!

[@RanaRover]

Nice observations by the way, really appreciate it. However, I put it in the way of a normal buyer. All points can be contradictory and debatable as there are adventure tourers in higher segment which has all of these but there is no point to debate on it as this is completely a rider/buyer's personal preference. Cheers man, Really appreciate your support.✌

I am from Bangalore, buddy please let me know who is the servicing of the bike. I had wishlisted this and now I am doubting to go forward with this​@@RanaRover

Suzuki has recalled all 3 models in its 250cc lineup: the Suzuki Gixxer 250, Gixxer SF 250 and V-Strom SX. The issue that caused this recall is a problem with the engine camshaft. All 3 models use the same 249cc oil-cooled single-cylinder engine, and abnormal wear has been reported on all.13 Feb 2024

👍

[@SaiRam-rf6yd]

What happened? Does it resolved?

[@imruvce10]

LED indicators are not required because use is less compare to head & tail lights

[@RanaRover]

Given the fact that competition bikes are providing much more at this price. I believe it is required specially in city.

[@sagittariusa2103]

Cut the price by 30k and everything starts to make sense.

[@RanaRover]

Absolutely 👍

[@roadswithabhinav]

Exactly

[@shrikantkulkarni2992]

Correct...Honda cb200x is better than this in low price approx 1.75k on road this one approx 2.4-2.5L

[@TwentyFiveToLife]

You can ask for that discount at the showroom and they might help.. since this bike's sales are low.. lots of them are unsold.. I was offered 2L, navi mumbai.. brand new, black color.

[@kpv6659]

Now they are selling this bike at 2.35lak i think now it's the perfect bike at this price segment

[@transylvanianrider]

It would be nice to try a DL250 if you find one in your area, and make a comparison ;)

[@RanaRover]

Will try to make it 👍

[@rajuchhowlay8013]

USD fork se yea Jada achcha hai for long touring because USD fork agar oil seal cut ho jaay toh gari aap nehi chala saktey hain

[@RanaRover]

Oil seal cut bahut rare case hai. Handling wise mujhe lagta hai USD forks better rehta.

[@user-tns1986]

Campshaft issue aya recently recall hua sabi 250 cc models

[@RanaRover]

👍

[@SaiRam-rf6yd]

Is it resolved now?

[@jk01biker]

At the end of the day only thing matter are you satisfied with your bike there is no such bike that doesn't have pros and cons

[@RanaRover]

Yes 🙌

[@saikiran-se4wz]

Iam getting a mileage of 22 Km in city traffic till now no 1srt service is not done

[@RanaRover]

You should get around 30-32 kmpl in city traffic after service.

[@maheshwarreddy4202]

The stickering also sucks just look at the Bmw Gs310 how beautiful it is. Just with little stickering and modifications this can look super cool

[@RanaRover]

Little improvement is required

[@maheshwarreddy4202]

@@RanaRover yes remove those Stock stickers and add Cool stickers you can take inspiration from Vstorm 1030d and Bmw g310s and and Lot more Advs. Plan carefully it will look beautifully.

[@BhuvanX96]

Can someone reply on how the service is for this bike? Honest opinion and i live in Bangalore, most of the people are criticizing the service....

[@RanaRover]

In Bangalore, my experience with service is not the Best but decent. It also depends on the service center.

[@BhuvanX96]

@@RanaRover any specific service place where I can rely on brother? If I buy V strom sx? Your reply will help a lot!

[@RanaRover]

@@BhuvanX96 I prefer Ninestar Suzuki. For better understanding, you can visit service center and understand from other customers as well.

[@123junu]

How does it handle in heavy traffic.. is it easy to maneuver ??

[@RanaRover]

It has large turning radius so in heavy congestion you may have to struggle a bit initially. It’s not maneuverable like naked city bikes.

[@123junu]

@@RanaRover thanks for the prompt insight....Best wishes for your channel...💯💯

[@maheshwarsk871]

R15 owners will be like for this price you get 250cc were we get only 155cc and you are feeling about indicators 😂😂😂

[@RanaRover]

Hehe 😅

[@sumo8625]
