2025 Suzuki V-STROM 800

The 2025 Suzuki V-STROM 800 offers a perfect balance of comfort, capability, and versatility for adventure touring enthusiasts. Designed for a wide range of riding styles, from long-distance touring to everyday commuting, the V-STROM 800 combines the dependable engineering V-STROM riders expect with innovative features for enhanced performance and rider satisfaction. Powered by Suzuki’s new-generation 776cc DOHC parallel-twin engine, it delivers smooth, controllable power at low speeds and an exhilarating rush at higher RPMs, all while producing a distinctive exhaust note reminiscent of its V-twin predecessors.

Features may include:

Engine

• The 776cc parallel-twin DOHC engine delivers a superb balance of smooth controllable torque-rich power from low RPM and freely revs up to its peak power output. The 270-degree crankshaft configuration provides similar power delivery characteristics as the 90-degree V-twins used in other V-STROM models while producing a unique and exciting exhaust note.

• The spaced nature of the engine’s power pulses enhances traction and contributes to strong power output at all road speeds, to help make the V-STROM 800 a joy to command. Suzuki Cross Balancer technology, patented by Suzuki, helps create a compact, lightweight design that delivers smooth operation.

Chassis

• Designed around the compact parallel twin engine and constructed with rugged steel pipe, the V-STROM 800’s backbone style frame was engineered to provide the strength needed for excellent straight-line stability and nimble handling when negotiating urban traffic or touring at highway speeds.

• Matched to the V-STROM 800’s chassis geometry and suspension is a uniquely shaped aluminum swingarm that enhances vertical, lateral, and torsional rigidity to aid straight-line performance and controlled cornering.

Electrical

• The S.I.R.S. suite includes the Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (SDMS), the Suzuki Traction Control System (STCS), Suzuki Easy Start system, Low RPM Assist System and the Bi-directional Quick Shift System (QS) that supports the rider in a variety of conditions.

• The V-STROM 800’s instrument panel uses a full-color, 5-inch, TFT LCD screen.

Body & Styling

• Retaining the prominent “beak” that was pioneered on Suzuki’s legendary DR-Z Dakar racer and the large DualSport DR-Big, the lines of the body work are sharper with flatter surfaces to create a tough yet sophisticated look. Different colored panels feature angular lines that further amplify the V-STROM 800’s modern, aggressive look.

• The V-STROM 800 has a wide tapered handlebar cast in strong yet flexible aluminum that allows it to flex and absorb shock. The handlebar’s wide grip position helps provide good feedback to the rider.
