These little 250's really are fun bikes. You never have to work hard to make them go round the woods and trails. And you can drive down the road to get there, Plus they get awesome gas mileage and bikes like the Suzuki are built to last with regular oil changes. They tend to be tough as blazes. I used to take a 250 Suzuki to a drivers ed driving range on the weekends and flat track the tiny range for hours. It was a blast. You could challenge yourself on your braking points and bike control all day without killing yourself. What a fun bike. This 250 VStrom looks no different. Great video.
@@sputnik5991 in service manual..it's 4.5k to 5k km..but I prefer to change engine oil at 4k kms( cheaper service cost)...9k kms done till now I have not done any valve clearance check ,bike running pretty good condition..
I rode my 250 vstrom from Adelaide to Cairns and back did 10000 km in two weeks with a week in Cairns They go very good Put a better chain on I recommend Gave it a very good thrashing and could not break it Great bike And handles very well. Goes fast enough on hwy no problems
bro I live in SEA and we call this bike JDM : Jaipur Domestic Market as a joke because it's made in India any people from India call this japanese marvel lol it's India marvel 👍 India can make this cheap & very durable bike, you should be proud of it
Going into my 50's I've basically sold all my "big" heavy bikes, I was looking at the 250 gixxer and then Suzuki South Africa popped a message in my email box inviting me for a spin on their new 250 V Strom, I'm sold, will put my order in soon, I'll just use it for road purposes (had enough of anything dirt)
Very nice review👌 I will buy the VStrom 250 SX if Suzuki increase the suspension travel, increase the tank capacity to 15 litres, slightly taller handlebars with a revised peg position for ease of riding when standing up on the pegs, also give better brakes and switchtable ABS with a stronger light setup.
Entry level my ass.... Been riding 40 years and I could have a blast on one of these and be perfectly content with it. Need one of these to go with the 2014 1000 and the 2012 650 with a 128,000 km on it.
The price has me asking myself if I'd like to get some grime on my L plates, but I'd have to give the banana big M the heave-ho for another colour I reckon.
It looks like the twin is for Europe according to team-bhp. The original source in my previous post was from global suzuki. I am in the US. It looks like it is not available here.
@@DaveZee01 My country is supplied with bikes from Suzuki Colombia, South America. It is a liquid-cooled twin with a 6-fwd transmission. In 2021 when I was contemplating buying it the price was equivalent to US$5,300 on the road. Trinidad & Tobago. West Indies.
167kg isn't exactly light. Especially when you are comparing it to a dirtbike. I don't understand why Suzuki didn't make it A2-license attractive which means 100cc extra and probably 15-20 more hp. The price isn't very sharp either. I rather would buy a kawasaki versys 300x instead.
Just thinking, why all are just talking about this Suzuki 250cc and why not other bikes from other makes? Like Yamaha has FZ25, Ktm has 25, Honda too has 250cc.
I really don't understand why some people argue about this motorcycle as if it is value similar to the BMW GS 1250 The price is very low and it is customized for a specific market category It is actually practical, beautiful, and lightweight, and it is worth everything you pay for it... so why argue ... 🛵😎

these bikes are really fun, with power to weight ratio, those suspension and wheel base, treat to ride on highways and little off road too.
I rode my 250 vstrom from Adelaide to Cairns and back did 10000 km in two weeks with a week in Cairns
They go very good
Put a better chain on I recommend
Gave it a very good thrashing and could not break it
Great bike
And handles very well.
Goes fast enough on hwy no problems
In India we use this machine for Highway Touring.
It works like a charm
Can hold 100kmph for all day long.

Really happy a out this currently riding an old kle 500 but this smaller bike suits my newer need ...
Also in SA, going to get one soon!!
how has it been mate
I totally love Vstorm 250. Got one 2 months ago
Thinking about a bike again as an older guy just for short trips and a bit of a putt about. This ticks a box or two so really appreciate the clip.
Snags lap on the little V-Strom. I’d love to see that!🙌
How many people ride a bike only in the dirt. Why not test it on the road too. This was less than half a test ride. Very disappointed.
Nice machine, light, nimble, looks good, seems to go very well & not too expensive. Well done Suzuki.
Smart, concise and straight to the point review. This is how video reviews should be and not a lot of gibberish. Cheers, mate!
Yep ,, very nice point of view Sir .. Well done.. I've got the bigger sister V-Strom 650Xt .. but i always keep an eye on those ..
Thank you sir
With Your recommendation,i Own one
It's great machine 👍❤️
Very nice review👌

it has fuel efficiency of 40kmpl around 90kmphbin 6th gear around 6000rpm. thats lot of happy touring
Awesome little bike!
Nice video. I like, I want. Going to get one!
Light and nimble just like you want off road but will be fine on the road touring too. I spy a winner.
The price has me asking myself if I'd like to get some grime on my L plates, but I'd have to give the banana big M the heave-ho for another colour I reckon.
There's Red
@@hespie1 And black. Though the "red" is more like fluro-orange, tad darker.
Thank you
To bad they didn’t offer this bike in the United States…….we get the gsx250r in basic boring colors but no 250 vsttom ……….don’t understand why
In the closing comments you said it is a "single-cylinder".
Is that correct ?
Suzuki's website says "248cm3 parallel-twin engine".
It looks like the twin is for Europe according to team-bhp. The original source in my previous post was from global suzuki. I am in the US. It looks like it is not available here.
Yes, the previous 250 V-Strom was a twin. It had a round headlight and was heavier. Probably quite a bit more expensive as well.

West Indies.
"give me convenience or give me death" 💀
I don't know what you saying but this motorcycle can climb mount Kilimanjaro. Very good engine
I’m surprised Suzuki doesn’t give that bike spoke wheels
Guys, Is it the same version sold in india ? Or bike used here is an international version, Diff than one sold in India ?
This bike can cross the Sahara
That's ah, ah pretty professional foot drag there ya have! Bahahaha
Good Video
Liked it !
Have you come across a decent, larger after market windscreen in this part of the world? I'm in NZ. Also a centre stand?
I don't think Canada gets these... Bummer
Excellent review. I'm off the the dealer to buy one
A great review!
I’d like to imagine 400cc triumph tiger, with similar build to this
Waiting to release on Malaysia market. But im 155cm height 😔
You'll be fine as they're light and the seat isn't too wide.
will enter the Malaysian market in 2024, because motor companies prefer to import Chinese bike that are difficult to get spare parts..
@@johnrico7041 true...
Its all about skill .....
Looks good for the money, Versys x300 comparison?
Well versys 300 is more powerful but pricy as well.
Out in in the shed, ride it 2 or 3 times a year had me lol.
Should i get this or the cdmoto 300sr.
Does japan make anything in japan anymore?
Great review
have you try TRK 251 or TRK 502
Too bad we don't get this In the states! Europe and Aussies get the good bikes!
Bring it to America
This machine will make us fly.. dare or not 😊
Nice video.. how many points for this bike out of 10?
For me its 7/10,if it was a 400cc It would be 10.
Unfortunately it isn't as light as a CRF300L Rally for off pavement duty.
Most people will use this mostly on the road and it'll probably be more comfortable
I would love to see these come to th USA
Excellent Review 👍❤️
No need 1000cc 4 cylinders if 250cc 1 cylinder can do the same
There has always been a V strom 250.
Just a small facelift
They're completely different.
The previous 250 was a twin with 17 inch wheels
This is a single with a 19 inch front.
Hi, Do you know what is the Permitted Total Weight on this bike.
Thank you

167 kg
it's the Gixxer engine but at $6400, stop saying it's cheap. double price than in India, why ? what kind of globalism is it ?
wow great❤❤❤

They are made in India & not imported into the UK, yet. Buy one in India & ride it home!
