Key Features

- Advanced features of the Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (S.I.R.S.) include the Ride-by-Wire Electronic Throttle System, Traction Control System, Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (SDMS), as well as the Easy Start System that makes start-ups quick and easy.

- The 1037cm³ V-twin engine has more horsepower than ever before but retains its strong pull in the lower rpm range and good fuel economy, all while complying with the Euro 5 emissions standards.

- The styling features Suzuki's original "beak" design that houses a stacked, rectangular LED headlight while paying homage to the DR-Z Paris-Dakar Rally bikes and the large-displacement DR-BIG DualSport.

- Tokico radial mount monobloc 4-piston front brake calipers with 310mm floating-mount dual discs are connected to Suzuki's Antilock Brake System (ABS)* for strong and consistent stopping performance.

- Lightweight 10-spoke cast aluminum wheels are stylish, sporty and contribute to nimble handling.

- The multifunction instrument panel presents all required information on a full LCD screen using a clean and intuitive layout with information displayed in order of priority.

- The USB port on the left side of the instrument panel is convenient for charging your smartphone or other small devices.

Engine Features

- The liquid-cooled 1037cm³ DOHC 90-degree V-twin engine delivers plenty of horsepower, abundant torque and good fuel economy, while at the same time satisfying Euro 5 emissions standards.

- High-compression pistons engineered using FEM analysis achieve ideal rigidity, weight, and durability.

- The pistons move within Suzuki Composite Electrochemical Material (SCEM)–coated cylinder bores for low weight, increased durability, reduced friction, and excellent heat dissipation.

- The engine features Suzuki's Ride-by-Wire Electronic Throttle System that is simpler, lighter, and more compact than a mechanical throttle. Each cylinder is fed by a 49mm bore electronic-controlled throttle body.

- Each throttle body has a single butterfly valve that is opened and closed by its own independent motor for precise throttle control.

- Each cylinder has a 10-hole fuel injector, located downstream of the throttle body on the intake manifold, that creates good fuel atomization for superior combustion efficiency and low fuel consumption.

- The twin iridium spark plugs used by Suzuki's Dual Spark Plug Technology contribute to smooth power delivery, lower fuel consumption, lower emissions, more linear throttle response, easier engine start-up, and a more stable idle.

- The Suzuki Easy Start System allows you to easily start the engine with a single, momentary press of the starter button, regardless of weather conditions or engine temperature.

- The ISC is key to the V-STROM's Low RPM Assist feature that seamlessly adjusts idle speed during standing starts and low-speed riding for smooth power delivery and less possibility of the engine stalling.

- Matched to the efficient exhaust system, the Suzuki Pulsed-secondary AIR-injection (PAIR) system injects fresh air into the exhaust ports to optimize emissions control without sacrificing performance.

- The radiator's increased cooling capacity is designed to accommodate higher engine output. Coolant temperature is stabilized via a thermostatically controlled cooling fan.

- The output of the 6-speed, close-ratio transmission is managed by the Suzuki Clutch Assist System (SCAS). This system works like a slipper clutch by allowing a small amount of clutch slip to enable smooth downshifts. It also works as an assist clutch, making the clutch lever pull light and precise.

- To accent the engine, a new bronze finish was applied to the cylinder head covers, clutch cover, magneto cover, and water pump case for a striking contrast with the black crankcase.

- Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (SDMS) provides you with a choice of three different engine power output modes to match the riding conditions and your preferred style. Working in concert with the Traction Control System**, SDMS permits peak power in each mode while changing the nature of the power delivery.

• A Mode – provides sharp throttle response.

• B Mode – provides softer throttle response.

• C Mode – provides the softest throttle response of the three modes.

- The Traction Control System* lets you control the throttle with more confidence by limiting rear wheel spin in a variety of riding conditions.

• The Traction Control System** continuously monitors front and rear wheel speeds, throttle opening, engine speed, and transmission gear. It quickly reduces engine output when it detects wheel spin by adjusting ignition timing and air delivery.

• You can select one of 3 modes, or turn the system off. The three modes differ in terms of rear wheel spin sensitivity. Mode 1 is for sport riding with minimal intervention from the system. Mode 2 offers a balance that is ideal for city riding and regular road conditions. And Mode 3 is well suited to wet or otherwise slippery road conditions.

Chassis Features

- The convenient bar behind the windscreen can even be used to mount accessories.

- The raised height and large diameter of the tapered handlebars provide good steering control while promoting a distinctive off-road appearance. The lightweight, high-strength handlebar also dampens vibration to your hands.

- Wide footpegs help you better maneuver the motorcycle on different road surfaces. Rubber inserts damp vibration but can be removed for a more direct connection when riding while standing on the pegs.

- The fuel tank has a generous 20.0L capacity and its shape and protective cover have been designed for a slim tank-seat junction that heightens riding comfort.

- The sides of the plush, two-tone seat are covered with high-grip texture material that helps you stay connected to the motorcycle.

- The slender chassis, thanks to the narrow V-twin engine design, fuel tank and trim seat, helps your legs reach the ground more easily than other models in the class.

- One V-STROM legacy is its durable, twin-spar aluminum frame that balances weight and rigidity for optimal handling on various types of roads.

- Tokico radial mount monobloc 4-piston front brake calipers are mated with 310mm floating-mount dual discs. The rear, single-piston Nissin brake caliper grasps a 260mm brake rotor. These efficient calipers are connected to Suzuki's Antilock Brake System (ABS)* for strong and consistent stopping performance.

- Shod with Bridgestone BATTLAX ADVENTURE A41 tires, the lightweight 10-spoke cast aluminum wheels (manufactured for Suzuki by ENKEI) combine nimble handling with sporty looks.

Electrical Features

- The V-STROM 1050 features a multifunction instrument panel that presents much more required information on its full Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) screen, using a clean and intuitive layout that displays information in order of priority.

- Included in the LCD display are the speedometer, tachometer (full pixel digital display), gear position indicator, odometer, dual trip meters, instantaneous fuel consumption, average fuel consumption, driving range, fuel level indicator, engine coolant temperature indicator, ambient air temperature indicator, clock, voltage meter, service reminder, SDMS mode, and traction control mode.

- Around the perimeter of the LCD are LED indicators that include the neutral indicator light, high beam indicator light, turn signal indicator light, traction control alert icon, ABS alert icon, and freeze indicator icon. This alert, together with the air temperature display, warns of possible icy road conditions.

- You can use the instrument panel display and the rocker switch on the left handlebar control to change menus and settings for the rider assist systems. The left handlebar switch can also reset the trip meters.

- A USB port is conveniently located on the left side of the instrument panel. This fused port is ideal for powering or charging mobile devices.

- The fairing features a stacked, rectangular LED headlight for excellent road and trail illumination while matching the Dakar Rally bike styling.

- An LED tail and brake light offers higher visibility, low electrical draw, and excellent durability.

- The turn signals use bright amber incandescent bulbs with clear lenses for outstanding visibility in traffic.

Additional Features

- A wide variety of Genuine Suzuki Accessories are available to V-STROM 1050 owners, including luggage, heated grips, high and low seats, a center stand, accessory bar, auxiliary lights, and a large selection of Suzuki logo apparel.

- Additional lock tumblers that match the bike's ignition key are included, so you can add Suzuki accessory luggage and have the convenience of one-key operation***.
