Suzuki V-Strom 1000 Concept

Suzuki show off a new 1000cc V-Strom concept.

Suzuki Motorcycles is offering a glimpse into its future with the release of a concept motorcycle, the V-Strom 1000 Concept adventure tourer.

“Our two V-Stroms, the 650 and 1000, are amongst the Australia’s best-selling adventure tourers and we are very excited about the release of a concept V-Strom 1000 as it shows the future direction of this popular model and of our organisation.” said Perry Morison, General Manager, Suzuki Motorcycles.

The current V-Strom 1000’s engine has been totally redesigned, a new slim and lightweight aluminium frame, thickly padded seat and an adjustable windscreen would make the V-Strom 1000 Concept a leap forward over the existing model.

The V-Strom 1000 Concept also features a performance-inspired radial mount front brake caliper and an Antilock Braking System (ABS)

The V-Strom 1000 Concept is also equipped with an advanced traction control system.

The suspension has been totally overhauled with the V-Strom 1000 Concept featuring an inverted front fork and easy-to-adjust single shock style rear suspension.

Inspired by the 1988 DR750S, Suzuki’s first big adventure tourer, the V-Strom 1000 Concept features bold and distinctive styling to create an unmatched presence.

The Concept also features an all-new luggage system which provides easy installation, a narrow overall width when installed and a clean look when detached.
