Expert Reviews on Suzuki V-Strom 650 XT [2017-2018]

A little over Rs 50,000 separate the two. But beyond that – take engine capacity, number of cylinders, output figures, or even the genre of motorcycles these represent – and you’d find these are more closely related than you thought. These are both twin cylinder 650cc motorcycles with a sit-up-and-ride and go-anywhere attitude.

The V-Strom can do it all. It might do some things really well, and some things without finesse, but it isn’t going to stop unless you hit a wall or drop off a cliff. And in that sense, this bike has got its purpose bit well sorted. 

Suzuki has launched the V-Strom 650 XT in India to spoil Kawasaki's party. Insofar, the Versys 650 was been the sole member of the middleweight touring segment and has enjoyed being virtually unrivalled.
