The 2023 Suzuki V-Strom 250 has made its global debut, and the latest iteration of this quarter-litre adventure-tourer motorcycle gets a few styling tweaks over its predecessor. NHoweverotably, this product from Suzuki Motor Corporation is not likely to arrive in India. Here, we bring a detailed image gallery of this parallel-twin, engine-powered Japanese adventure tourer.
The styling cues remain similar to the previous version. Thus, the 2023 model retains a round headlight, a tall windscreen, a semi-fairing with a beak-style front, a step-up saddle, and a side-slung exhaust.
Meanwhile, the colour palette comprises six options – Solid Dazzling Cool Yellow with Pearl Nebular Black, Metallic Diamond Red with Pearl Nebular Black, Pearl Nebular Black with Metallic Hightech Silver, Metallic Mat Flash Black with Pearl Nebular Black, Metallic Triton Blue with Pearl Nebular Black, and Pearl Macho Orange with Pearl Nebular Black.
The feature list is basic, and the 2023 V-Strom 250 comes equipped with a halogen headlight, a DC outlet, and an LCD instrument cluster.
The Suzuki V-Strom 250 is powered by a 248cc, parallel-twin cylinder, liquid-cooled engine that delivers 24bhp at 8,000rpm and 22Nm at 6,500rpm. This motor is linked to a six-speed gearbox.
The hardware on the 2023 Suzuki V-Strom 250 comprises telescopic front forks and a rear monoshock to handle suspension tasks. Meanwhile, the braking setup includes disc brakes on both wheels and the safety net comprises ABS.
Unlike the India-spec V-Strom SX, this quarter-litre motorcycle rides on 17-inch alloy wheels on both ends. These are shod in 110/80-section front and 140/70-section rear tubeless tyres.
As mentioned earlier, the Suzuki V-Strom 250 is not likely to arrive in India. However, the Japanese manufacturer offers the single-cylinder powered V-Strom SX in the Indian market to rival the likes of the Royal Enfield Himalayan and the KTM 250 Adventure.
