The new engine, which is also expected to be used in Triumph’s new 1200 Trophy tourer in 2013, features shaft drive (as also employed by the class leading BMW R1200GS and rivals Yamaha’s Super Tenere 1200 and Moto Guzzi’s Stelvio) and is also equipped with traction control, cruise control as well as switchable ABS.
2012 V-Strom 1000 and Adventures
If you’ve been paying attention to motorcycling over the last year or so, you already know that big adventure bikes are what all the cool kids are riding these days. So, the big V-Strom—absent from Suzuki’s lineup since 2009—is back for 2012, complete with its fuel-injected, 996cc, 90-degree V-Twin engine, a 5.8-gallon fuel tank and a $10,399 price tag.
For those who really want to live the dream, Suzuki now offers what it calls V-Strom Adventures in either 650 or 1000cc sizes. The bikes are delivered pre-rigged with some of the equipment you’d add to circumnavigate the globe; adventurous-looking hard bags, engine guards and numerous other items are all part of the deal. The 650 version lists for $9799, the 1000 for $10,999.
