My New-to-Me Suzuki V-Strom 650
Hey Everybody!
Just wanted to show off my new ride. I picked it up from the dealership last Thursday and I am in love. She is a 2009 V-Strom and she is going to take me all around the world (hopefully!) Login or Register to Remove Ads |

Re: My New-to-Me Suzuki V-Strom 650
Congrats on the new ride. You now have the best small V-twin on the market. They are bullet proof and just right in my opinion. Log on to Stromtrooper.Com for all the skinny you will ever want to know.
Look for crash bars soonest(you will drop it) Consider a Madstad bracket to make the windshield far more adjustable if you have helmet buffeting. And your glasses won't rattle around on your nose. Been there, done that. Be happy knowing a BMW costs more to service in 5 years than your bike costs you to buy and service in 5 years. Login or Register to Remove Ads |

Dark Dave. If you ever consider a Corbin seat to rest your buns on give me a shout. I have one that only saw one short season of riding.
