I got delivery within two days. Daily 30 km I use to ride.
The bike is too smooth and 100% preferable for a long ride.
Need some eye on the back side design.
Cons: a headlight is not that effective on highways.
if the abs switching option is there it means off-roading will be a little bit smoother.

    1. The buying experience is very good. when I visited to buy this machine in black colour they didn't have stock but as they promised they would bring the bike within 2. days & they did it... Love this service
    2. Riding experience: nothing to say... I just love to ride this machine... an awesome experience... Now my machine running 10530km within 9 months. I have done almost 5000km with a long ride it was a lovely experience.
    3. Looks & performance: Performance is good.. you can get a decent average of 35-37 in the city & 40+ you can get easily on the highway depending on your riding style & weight.
    The looks are nice... but it could be more attractive if Suzuki give a little bit more features. I have seen one of the manufacturing defects on the knuckle guard.
    4. servicing & maintenance: it's a 250cc segment adventure machine so definitely service & maintenance will be a little bit high from other machines. but it is decent... if you own this type of machine & also if you are a daily user then you need to keep it under regular maintenance.
    Overall I love This machine in the adventure segment at this price...
    I would highly recommend it to those who can start with adventure.

    1. The Vstrom 250 SX was an excellent bike. Overall The Buying experience was good. We can say OK OK .
    2. The bike was excellent to drive in City because I am daily committing to this bike it's over on good.

    5. Pros.
    If you are searching for a tour or adventure bike you can definitely to this bike.
    And its maintenance is also very cheap from other superbikes.
    5. Cons
    Some vibrations also come in this bike and the gears issue also can be felt.

    You Never Know

    The gear shifting initially is very hard but after the first service it gets smoother and performance is very good in the city and at highways. I have a Yezdi Adventure too v Strom's better than the Yezdi as it's a smaller engine and gives more mileage compared to the Yezdi but it's not suitable for extreme offroad pretty decent power which is sufficient for city and highways and decent mileage at both.

    Shubham Ameta

    The buying experience was decent. Although, the showroom didn't give me a good deal and hadn't completed the promises still I was in love with the bike so I purchased it from them anyway. Riding experience is the ultimate to date. I have ridden 1700km and done my first service. I am getting good mileage, did an 800 km return trip with luggage and it was a comfortable ride both for rider and the pillion. Looks are awesome. Many eyes turn around when the bike passes or in a parking lot. It gives a big bike feel. Servicing is an area that is debatable. I did my first service but I think Suzuki's service centers need improvements. I have read reviews about Suzuki's service centers and I felt those are pretty true. However, the dealer is renowned and premium in my city so their customer service is good and responsive. Handling ( except left-hand side pulling, which has a solution but my service center does not know). Mileage, Seat comfort, and Headlight (compared to others in the segment) look very good. No heating issue. Maintenance cost. Need more initial torq. Side mirrors. The visor is a bit small. The exhaust note and its position bit awkward. The horn is loud but very scootish sound. The headlight throw is a bit awkward. The hazard light is missing. It should be included as it is a touring machine. After-sales service.

    The looks are good and the height of the bike is very high similar to the BMW 310 Adventure. Riding experience is so good and the speed of this bike cruising is easily 100 km. Also, this bike comes with a liquid-cooled engine and the sound of this bike is very smooth. You will definitely love the road presence

    I am about to buy this vehicle, have been reading a lot of reviews about the bike for a year, and have reached the final decision but still confused between Vstorm and Honda CB200X. It's about budget. For Vstorm I will have to increase my budget a bit. And Honda is also coming in my budget, and also Honda looks better than the Vstorm. But I can close my eyes and go for VSTORM.

    the engine is super smooth. I got 40 km on the highway.
    The low-end torque is fabulous. easy to handle
    best for touring. suspension is not up to the mark
    It is far better than Himalayan It has the best Suzuki oil cooling technology, and engine cooling is not a problem
    The ergonomics of the bike are good. The digital instrument cluster and Bluetooth connectivity help the rider.

    The buying experience is good and the riding experience is also good.
    This is a good tourer machine with look and performance is also good service and maintenance are decent.
    All are the pros but only the price is not justified, The price is too high and the service network is very weak.
    Suzuki increased his service network and price is not an issue.

  • Buy this only if you want to have a feeling of horse ride

    34 weeks ago


    Kal

    Surprised by the positive reviews I'm bikewale. Maybe everybody was out there to win the bumper prize for the positive reviews. Bought mine on June 23. Regrettably one of the worst investments in my life. Though the engine & gears are super smooth, the suspension is clearly HORRIBLE. You get to feel bumpy even on the smoothest of the roads which doesn't inspire conducted I'm me to ride faster. The constant jumpiness on minor potholes & bumps leaves me irritated, wondering when to finish off my emi & sell this trash off.

    1. The buying experience is very good. when I visited to buy this machine in black colour they didn't have stock but as they promised they would bring the bike within 2. days & they did it... Love this service
    2. Riding experience: nothing to say... I just love to ride this machine... an awesome experience... Now my machine running 10530km within 9 months. I have done almost 5000km with a long ride it was a lovely experience.
    3. Looks & performance: Performance is good.. you can get a decent average of 35-37 in the city & 40+ you can get easily on the highway depending on your riding style & weight.
    The looks are nice... but it could be more attractive if Suzuki give a little bit more features. I have seen one of the manufacturing defects on the knuckle guard.
    4. servicing & maintenance: it's a 250cc segment adventure machine so definitely service & maintenance will be a little bit high from other machines. but it is decent... if you own this type of machine & also if you are a daily user then you need to keep it under regular maintenance.
    Overall I love This machine in the adventure segment at this price...
    I would highly recommend it to those who can start with adventure.

    You Never Know

    The gear shifting initially is very hard but after the first service it gets smoother and performance is very good in the city and at highways. I have a Yezdi Adventure too v Strom's better than the Yezdi as it's a smaller engine and gives more mileage compared to the Yezdi but it's not suitable for extreme offroad pretty decent power which is sufficient for city and highways and decent mileage at both.

    Shubham Ameta

    The buying experience was decent. Although, the showroom didn't give me a good deal and hadn't completed the promises still I was in love with the bike so I purchased it from them anyway. Riding experience is the ultimate to date. I have ridden 1700km and done my first service. I am getting good mileage, did an 800 km return trip with luggage and it was a comfortable ride both for rider and the pillion. Looks are awesome. Many eyes turn around when the bike passes or in a parking lot. It gives a big bike feel. Servicing is an area that is debatable. I did my first service but I think Suzuki's service centers need improvements. I have read reviews about Suzuki's service centers and I felt those are pretty true. However, the dealer is renowned and premium in my city so their customer service is good and responsive. Handling ( except left-hand side pulling, which has a solution but my service center does not know). Mileage, Seat comfort, and Headlight (compared to others in the segment) look very good. No heating issue. Maintenance cost. Need more initial torq. Side mirrors. The visor is a bit small. The exhaust note and its position bit awkward. The horn is loud but very scootish sound. The headlight throw is a bit awkward. The hazard light is missing. It should be included as it is a touring machine. After-sales service.

Also, this bike comes with a liquid-cooled engine and the sound of this bike is very smooth. You will definitely love the road presence

    I am about to buy this vehicle, have been reading a lot of reviews about the bike for a year, and have reached the final decision but still confused between Vstorm and Honda CB200X. It's about budget. For Vstorm I will have to increase my budget a bit. And Honda is also coming in my budget, and also Honda looks better than the Vstorm. But I can close my eyes and go for VSTORM.

    the engine is super smooth. I got 40 km on the highway.
    The low-end torque is fabulous. easy to handle
    best for touring. suspension is not up to the mark
    It is far better than Himalayan It has the best Suzuki oil cooling technology, and engine cooling is not a problem
    The ergonomics of the bike are good. The digital instrument cluster and Bluetooth connectivity help the rider.

    The buying experience is good and the riding experience is also good.
    This is a good tourer machine with look and performance is also good service and maintenance are decent.
    All are the pros but only the price is not justified, The price is too high and the service network is very weak.
    Suzuki increased his service network and price is not an issue.

    Kal

    Surprised by the positive reviews I'm bikewale. Maybe everybody was out there to win the bumper prize for the positive reviews. Bought mine on June 23. Regrettably one of the worst investments in my life. Though the engine & gears are super smooth, the suspension is clearly HORRIBLE. You get to feel bumpy even on the smoothest of the roads which doesn't inspire conducted I'm me to ride faster. The constant jumpiness on minor potholes & bumps leaves me irritated, wondering when to finish off my emi & sell this trash off.
