Suzuki V-Strom 800DE - A Novice's Review
Another review of the Suzuki V-Strom... but this one is from a Novice Rider whom after watching countless Reviews from Experienced ADV Riders got himself in over his head. I managed to shave off as much weight as possible, but it wasn't enough. This bad boy still weighs... a lot. ON the road, it's great - OFF Road, like true off road, like in the sane and mud... the bike is simply too heavy to manage.

Full exhaust, lithium battery, fender tidy, maybe a set of IMS footpegs, convert to tubeless (tape seal inner rims, the supermoto guys do it all the time), and you'll feel the weight come down. Me personally I'd be looking for suspension help, especially a better rear shock.

      I live in Florida and our Summers (and most of the year) are pretty hot. With that said, you will notice pretty bad engine heat when you stop... honestly it hasn't bothered me much and has gone mostly unnoticed but for some reason the last time I rode it, I recall noticing just how bad it was. From what I've read it's specific to the engine design not necessarily just this model of bike. My Thruxton RS gets pretty damn hot too.

(3) When to do the ceramic coating, like during break-in period or wait until after first maintenance is complete for a new Thruxton?

The Triumph waxed cotton panniers suck, held on by cheap plastic clips and vinyl with 6 lb capacity LOL. Legend gear is <10L per bag, looks ok but not functional and overpriced.. with a tail rack you can pop on a Givi plate and top box with a large enough surface area to pick up food that comes in a flat container., or a couple grocery bags without smashing everything, and it doesn't get in your way getting on/off the bike.

      Thank man! Check out this video: ruclips.net/video/ikggDCYJ0ys/видео.html - The Quad Lock system goes mounted to a Stem Nut Mount I purchased, really simple setup. Here's the link to the mount: thorntonhundredmotorcycles.co.uk/product/quad-lock-stem-nut-mount/

    When I was test riding my first Thruxton RS, it was a torrential downpour and rain mode saved my ass when I started fishtailing.

      Yeah they have a lot of torque - rain mode definitely makes them safer when it's wet.Glad you didn't wreck a showroom bike. lol

    I have the Brittish Customs Predator pros with the carbon tips, on my ST1200 and they sound great, cat removal and straight through verex headers are going to make this bike sound better than any other Brittish twin. Oh, wear a helmet when you ride mate... I spent the whole time hoping you didn't have an accident or get run in to .. lol

      Nice! I'm not sure I'm quite ready to de-cat but I'm sure I will at some point. I like to go riding early in the morning before my neighbors are awake so if I de-cat, I'd essentially have to walk my bike out of my neighborhood. Even with these slip-ons, a cold start is actually pretty loud. And thanks man, I always ride with my helmet, with the exception of that short clip around my neighborhood which doesn't have many cars driving around. I do appreciate your concern though. 🙏

    I've just done the first service on my 2023 Speed twin 1200 with the exact same motor as your bike, I paid $250 AUD

      Not sure what that translates into US but I've accepted the fact that it is what it is and unless I drive much further to another Triumph dealer I'll just have to pay for it. The next services are far and few in between so hopefully the cost won't be to bad moving forward.
