Overview
The Suzuki V-Strom 1000 ABS is an adventure motorcycle produced from 2014 to 2016. For 2016, its liquid-cooled 996 cm³ four-stroke V-twin makes 100 hp (75 kW) at 8,000 rpm and 103 Nm at 4,000 rpm, with a wet weight of 228 kg.
Peak torque arrives at 4,000 rpm, so useful pulling power comes well before the engine reaches its 8,000 rpm power peak. The 840 mm seat is tall, and the 228 kg wet weight can make parking and slow-speed maneuvers demanding. Front wheel travel is 237 mm and ground clearance is 165 mm for handling uneven surfaces; ABS helps guard against wheel lock during braking.

Pros and cons
Advantages
ABS braking
ABS on both the front and rear brakes helps prevent wheel lock during hard braking.
Strong low-rpm torque
The engine reaches 103 Nm at 4,000 rpm, giving it useful pulling power without needing to rev it to the 8,000 rpm power peak.
Long front suspension travel
The 237 mm of front wheel travel helps absorb bumps and rough patches.
Things to consider
Tall seat
At 840 mm, the seat may make it difficult for shorter riders to put both feet down.
Heavy at low speed
Its 228 kg wet weight takes effort to manage during parking and tight, slow maneuvers.
Chain final drive
The chain needs regular cleaning and adjustment.
