19-06-2015 0 owners Registered June 2015 and now with just 29,849 miles. Presented in White. The Suzuki V-Strom 1000 is never going to electrify you with thrills. Its not breathtakingly quick, but it is easy to ride and manageable, delivering loads of low and midrange grunt. You can throw it around with confidence and its backed up by excellent traction control and ABS. Its also comfortable, natural, frugal and simple – yet still has neat touches like an adjustable ratchet screen. The Suzuki V-Strom 1000s riding position is roomy and natural, the bars high and wide without forcing the rider to over-stretch and the brilliantly simple screen easy to adjust on the move. As youd expect from a bike with a 19-inch front wheel, the steering isnt razor sharp, but it flows nicely in and out of corners, helped by a 150-section tyre that makes it easier to turn. The suspension control is surprisingly sophisticated, too. The front neither dives dramatically on the brakes nor wallows and the radial brakes are a big step up from the old V-Strom, strong and progressive. The hydraulic clutch is light, the gearbox typically smooth for Suzuki and with minimum throttle its easy to pull away to negotiate tiny city streets. It feels instantly like a true V-Strom and very quickly you realize there is no point in revving it too hard. It will go to just over 9000rpm, but its really last orders at 8000rpm. Most of the grunt is delivered from 4000 to 6000rpm, which makes the ride effortless. This particular V-Strom 1000 is in excellent condition and benefits from: SUZUKI PANNIERS / SUZUKI TANK BAG / SUZUKI HEATED GRIPS / SUZUKI ENGINE BARS / SUZUKI FOG LIGHTS / MIRROR RISERS / 47L GIVI TOP BOX / CENTRE STAND / SCOTT OILER.
