V-Strom 650 Off-Road Capabilities | Stock vs Off Road Modified | S3 E10 | 4K

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Contrary to popular uneducated belief, an unmodified Suzuki V-Strom 650 can be ridden on more than just flat dirt and gravel. Watch the V-Strom in its natural habitat as it tackles progressively more difficult terrain. 🍁

    Thrown mine around offroad a few times here in the UK, I even managed to get it round an enduro course once (although I soon got tired, and the other riders on much lighter machines soon got tired of waiting for me to pick it up too...7 times 😅) They're great bikes, I love mine. Pretty much bulletproof for reliability too. Your mate has SkillZ! Cheers 🤟😉

    Not bad, not bad at all. My only critical observation is that the terrain is flat. No rocks, logs, heavy ruts etc. What I want to find is videos like that one from Greece. I still can't decide if there was some CGI in that one.

    Hahaha, CGI not required. It does “look” flat, the wide angle action cameras and high mounting angle smooths the terrain in the image. Working on budget creative solutions to that.

    V-stroms are great off road bikes. They can handle pretty much anything you throw at them. We put our to the test fully loaded with gear. We both still run stock cast wheels and ride through tons of rocky creek crossings and haven't had a problem yet. O yeah Motoz tires are the only way to go 😁

    I have a 2012 650 and manufacturers will always be conservative with off road estimations. Thank the lawyers for that. I have little time on two wheels off road, but now I'm confident at least of the bike. It will mean many drops off road as long as you have the side boxes off. I slipped on a water crossing and when I put my foot down the forward motion of the bike caught my foot under the side box and broke my leg. Tough lesson learned, but be aware.
