Wheelbase has been the same since 2012, It actually feels better to ride now especially compared to the Gen 2 650. The F850GS and CRF1100L have much larger wheelbase, in comparison . USD suspension is for the DL1000 only and those Kayaba are plenty plush for a Tourer. Long travel suspension is usually reserved for dirt bikes, scramblers and bikes with a 21"-18" wheel setup and they are not comfortable for long distances. Play with the spring rate and the fork oil weight before doing any permanent changes. If you do not like to tip-toe, try the V-Strom 1000. It is narrower at the middle. Top ends are never great in V-Twin bikes, their design is for fat low-end torque. Whether its a 1584cc Harley or a 650cc Suzuki , its all about the Torque at the low end. For power anywhere else, its a triple or a 4-cyl. The buzz you felt, is the engine because V-Twins have lots of character. Also 8800 rupees for a regular 6000km service is a rip-off and 25-27kmpl on highway is very low. If you hold 80 at 6th gear it will do 32kmpl easily, on the V-Strom 1000. In the city, its just fantastic. Peak hour no fuss, flood who cares. Just feed it low octane petrol and it will keep going.
8:25 i drove the vstrom recently too for 110 km it is a demo unit left as the showroom went to a complete overhaul from 2023 oct to 2024 march it only did 98km( from warehouse to showroom) i completed 200km on it the buffeting is due to the mirrors that boxy shape is not aerodynamic at all i am 172cm and the stock setting windscreen felt very tall for my height i lowered the screen removed the mirrors and boy did the bike ride like it is supposed to suzuki def made the vstrom aerodynamic except the windscreen and mirrors i was waiting for a high level mechanic to check the authenticity of the bike before i purchase it. the dealer did gave me a 12km spin removing mirrors and windscreen it can still cruise at 140 better than before lol , i was sold i will buy it for sure the price depends on the genuinety cant wait to hit the roads on this sofa.
CB500X is only bike gives 32kmpl mileage with highway ( 110 kmph speed) ...... Comfortable cruising in india from my experience..... 60 to 80 for State roads 80 to 110 for most of Indian NH highway 130 to 150 for NE highway .... Their is no any more than 600 cc bike suitable for India ..... CB500X is good for touring in india with good enough speed and service cost also less than other bikes 👍 ..... And light weight .....
Will you recommend it to beginners as a first bike. It is already an old bike but a real Swiss knife motorcycle. Good in everything with excellent engine for years riding 👍💪 Greetings from Serbia ✌️😎
I'm the Honda fan but bought same V-strom. Nc750x feels like a good maxi scooter but not the motorcycle. And definitely NC doesn't suit for the unpaved road
I need to understand, if this vehicle was in your list, then why did you buy a sports vehicle? if you want something then you should wait for it to be available.
My requirement was a good touring motorcycle with pillion comfort. And I am comfortable for sporty riding as well. Since I was already waiting for long, thought that I will drop one among the last choice.
Which one do you suggest ? Hey Strell ! Versys 650 or this ? Planning for a change , I currently own a int650 with Fuel X and other performance upgrades. Owned a Ninja 650 before this ! Machane ! Etha eniklyu koodthal suit aavune ?
@@parans95 you took the words out of my mouth. The VStrom (especially the 650) is absolutely bomb proof. Literally nothing goes wrong. Ever. At least nothing that matters anyways.
This bike is not a star model in Suzuki lineup, there are problems with this particular bike and Suzuki knows it. Talk to a present owner and then think about owning this one or you might regret the choice you will make.
Really 😂 I think u won’t belong to India 🇮🇳, u know it’s not even affordable in my dreams and it’s true for half of the population in country , and u say it’s ok 😂, it’s not bad !! , really just don’t get me.

I thought it is V twin..but you said parallel twin??🤔
Yes its a V-twin. It was a tounge slip.
@@iamstrellthat happens to even the best sometimes... v in v strom refers to the V twin setup isn't it...
@@iamstrell it's a 90° vtwin or some may call it L twin same layup as the multistradas
The next version would be a parallel twin 😄
3 years waited for vstrom 650 xt review 💛 Atlast!!❤

Considering all the aspects , what would you choose between cb500x and v-storm 650 ?
CB500X is only bike gives 32kmpl mileage with highway ( 110 kmph speed) ......

60 to 80 for State roads

Does the fuel tank cap of Vstorm 650 is the same unit of Gixxer?
@Strell...honda goldwing?
Hello. Can you share the link to the saddle stay?
Went to buy this beauty but showroom guys told that it has been discontinued. Do you have any chance to know the probability of it coming back?
Love you voice bro 😍😍
Will you recommend it to beginners as a first bike. It is already an old bike but a real Swiss knife motorcycle. Good in everything with excellent engine for years riding 👍💪 Greetings from Serbia ✌️😎
What is your leg inseam length? Thanks
Am just assuming your thoughts about middle weight sports tourer will get changed once tiger 660 sports is out .
Can you do a review of the V storm 250 ... Or Gixxer in V storm suit 😁
Where do we get used vstrom Or ADVs.. Can any brothers suggest? Please. I m in Pune Maharashtra.
So according to you a 650CC motorcycle going for a service once in a 6000 kms and spending 8,800/- is decent?
This Vstrom 650 is on sale now. If you are interested, you can contact instagram.com/autoshifttraveler/
Please make video on honda CB500x.
Please review the Honda CB 500x
So which bike you ended up buying?
Confused between v strom 650xt vs honda cb500x which one to buy?
Your feedback Pl.
It's like what to buy: bicycle or snowboard. :)) Honda is more like maxi scooter. V-strom is the multi purpose hot thing
Yellow Beast💛⚡
Does it have slipper clutch?
Do A Video On Yezdi Adventure & Also Benelli Imperiale Please 🙏❤️
Quality content! This One vs Honda nc750x DCT?
I'm the Honda fan but bought same V-strom. Nc750x feels like a good maxi scooter but not the motorcycle. And definitely NC doesn't suit for the unpaved road
@@empowerd1 thanks!
Is the waiting period still 6 months? Or what is the waiting period now ?
I need to understand, if this vehicle was in your list, then why did you buy a sports vehicle?

My requirement was a good touring motorcycle with pillion comfort. And I am comfortable for sporty riding as well. Since I was already waiting for long, thought that I will drop one among the last choice.
@@iamstrell So it means that you needed just a bigger engine on two wheels. Because for touring, I will never go for a sports motorcycle.

Customers of Suzuki VStrom 650 have complained about the frequent faults with its crank position sensor leading to stalling of bike and not starting.
Wait what? This is the 1st time i ever heard of this and i own a 100,000km V-strom 650.
@@parans95 you took the words out of my mouth. The VStrom (especially the 650) is absolutely bomb proof. Literally nothing goes wrong. Ever. At least nothing that matters anyways.
You will hardly find any major fault in any Suzuki products..
U lie
0:45 Suzuki's loss
✌️😎🇫🇷
This bike is not a star model in Suzuki lineup, there are problems with this particular bike and Suzuki knows it. Talk to a present owner and then think about owning this one or you might regret the choice you will make.
Never had a problem with any of mine and have owned 3 of the post 2017 model and covered over 30,000 mikes
17.000 miles and zero problems...
U lie.. Mine gave no problem. Very good bike.
Really 😂 I think u won’t belong to India 🇮🇳, u know it’s not even affordable in my dreams and it’s true for half of the population in country , and u say it’s ok 😂, it’s not bad !! , really just don’t get me.
