Capable of sporty riding in the curves on paved roads and solid handling on unpaved roads, the V-STROM SX can be considered sport adventure tourer. What makes the V-STROM SX sport adventure tourer so popular is it’s distinct adventure-inspired looks, comfortable ergonomics and fully-realized utility that fit customer needs in each displacement class.

The design concept behind the V-STROM SX was “Toughness in a Slender Shell.” Toughness comes from its rugged, adventure-inspired looks, confidence-inspiring chassis. The slender shell refers to a slim exterior shape owing to the compact engine design that appears to be wrapped in a “protector-like” shell. Its nimble handling and light weight make it simple to maneuver through the city. Its sporty performance brings excitement and thrills across twisty roads making it a lightweight versatile crossover.

Engine Performance
The 249cm3, 4-stroke 1-cylinder, 4-valve, oil-cooled SOHC engine featured in the V-STROM SX feels strong and linear, offering excellent torque at low rpm and a smooth run up, making it easy to use for beginners and veteran riders alike, as well as suiting it to a wide variety of situations, from riding in town to high-speed cruising. The Suzuki Oil Cooling System (SOCS) warms the engine up quickly and keeps it at the optimum temperature exceptionally well for ideal temperature management. It also contributes to the engine's overall light weight and the V-STROM SX's brisk, nimble feel.


Engine Performance
MotoGP technology
Analytic technology gained through MotoGP was used to develop the valves, shim type roller rocker arms, retainers and piston to reduce their weight. These combined result in a lighter engine with less friction loss. This reduces the overall weight of the V-STROM SX and gives it a quick, well-handling ride character, along with improving fuel economy.

Piston
Printed surface treatment of the piston skirt area has reduced friction loss in the piston itself. This has contributed to increased output and better fuel efficiency. The cylinder liners' unique finish offers excellent heat transfer effectiveness, reducing oil consumption and oil loss.

RUGGEDLY COMPACT
A well-rounded chassis forms the backbone of the V-STROM SX, bringing together a feature set suited for riding both paved and unpaved roads.

This is thanks to the engine’s compact layout, allowing the side panels below the seat to be as narrow as possible, providing plenty of room and an overall slim, lightweight feel to the machine. Although it feels slim while riding, the V-STROM SX is tough and rugged with a protector-like look and feel
