Suzuki V Strom DL1000, 35000 miles later

My bike has just clocked up 35000 Miles (56327.04 KM) so thought I'd let you know my thoughts about the bike, any problems I've had and do I intend to keep it.

    I like this bike but the handlebar should be more next to the rider. I spoke with my mechanic and he said that it is possible to do that.

    You can fit bar risers, but i don't have a problem with the handle bars, I find the riding position fine even when standing

    Nice review and bike. I’ve got my eye on an ‘07 with 25k miles on it, but I’m concerned about the size and weight as my last bike was a SFV650. How do you find the bike handles around town and at slower speeds? I’d hate to drop it and have to get it back upright. The 1000 seems like a much more comfortable tourer, though, especially for the occasional two-up trip.

    The bike is quite heavy but feels really light when riding, i have a t.r.e fitted so riding around town at slow speeds is not a problem for me. As for comfort, I could ride all day without pain and two up Mrs Hof is so comfy she quite often nods off on the back!

    Timing retard eliminator it smooths the bike and enables you to ride at low revs and also use 6th gear at slower speeds than 70mph
