Suzuki released the 2025 model of the V-Strom 800 on March 14th. This time, new colors have been added and the price has been revised.

A comfortable and sporty tourer
The V-Strom 800 is a sports adventure bike that emphasizes comfort on paved roads while enhancing touring performance. It combines the high riding performance and comfort that are characteristic of adventure models, making it a bike that can be used for a wide range of purposes, from commuting around urban areas to long-distance touring.
The engine is a 775cc parallel twin-cylinder engine. Utilizing Suzuki’s unique “cross balancer” technology, a two-axis balancer positioned at a 90-degree angle suppresses engine vibration while achieving a compact and lightweight design. Maximum power output is 83PS (61kW) at 8,500rpm, and maximum torque is 78Nm at 6,800rpm, providing easy-to-handle power characteristics from low to mid-speed ranges. It provides smooth acceleration in city driving and powerful torque on highways and winding roads, ensuring stress-free driving.
Electronic control improves comfort and safety
The electronic control system is also well-equipped. It is equipped with the Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (SIRS), and the Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (SDMS) allows you to choose from three different output characteristics. It also comes with the Suzuki Traction Control System (STCS), which offers three levels plus OFF, allowing you to set the optimum setting depending on the weather and road conditions. A bidirectional quick shift system is standard, allowing you to shift gears smoothly without operating the clutch. This allows you to enjoy comfortable touring while reducing fatigue.
The brake system uses a radial-mount caliper on the front to ensure high braking power. ABS is also standard equipment, improving safety. The front tire uses a 19-inch cast wheel, improving stability on paved roads. The rear tire uses a 17-inch wheel, achieving light handling. Both front and rear are equipped with tubeless tires, reducing the risk of punctures.
20L large capacity tank
It is also equipped with a full range of features to improve its touring performance. It features a height-adjustable windscreen that effectively blocks the wind while riding, reducing fatigue during long-distance travel. The fuel tank has a large capacity of 20L, allowing for long-distance touring with just one fill-up. It also comes equipped with a USB socket, allowing you to charge your smartphone or navigation device. The bike is designed to be comfortable even during long rides.
In terms of design, it inherits the identity of the V-Strom series while adopting modern, sharp styling. Along with the bold coloring, it has the dignified styling of an adventure bike, which is its appeal.
Although the V-Strom 800 is designed specifically for on-road touring, it combines a powerful engine with high comfort, making it a sports adventure model that is sure to attract attention for its wide range of uses.
