Suzuki’s entry-level ADV motorcycle is back, though the 2022 Suzuki V-Strom 650 has no changes this year. That isn’t a big problem, as the V-Strom 650 is a well-rounded and evolved motorcycle that provides a great ride experience for new and experienced riders alike.<\/p>\n

The Suzuki V-Strom 650 is an easy-handling motorcycle that is at home in the canyons, on basic dirt roads, and out on the open highway. The 476-pound weight with the 5.3-gallon fuel tank filled gives the V-Strom impressive agility. While there’s not much suspension adjustability, Suzuki engineers got the spring rates and damping right from the factory. The pavement-focused Bridgestone<\/a> Battlax Adventure A40 tires match the V-Strom 650’s overall approach to ADV riding.<\/p>\n

The impressive motor is capable of long-distance rides thanks to a sixth gear that acts as an overdrive. Acceleration is impressive, thanks to the ratios of the lower five gears.<\/p>\n

Rider-friendly features include Suzuki’s Easy Start System (just touch the start button to fire up the V-twin), always-on ABS, two levels of traction control (plus off, for dirt excursions), and Low RPM Assist (revs automatically rise if you’re about to stall the motor).<\/p>\n

The 2022 Suzuki V-Strom 650 is available in one color this year\u2014Pearl Brilliant White\u2014and has a list price of $8904. Although it’s $55 more than the previous year, it’s still a great value in the ADV category.<\/p>\n
