Gathering followers with its versatility and friendly nature, the V-Strom 650 has earned the respect by many riders as an excellent touring machine.
It is truly a masterpiece with the ultimate balance provided by the natural riding position, comfortable seat and the flexible engine character allowing stress-free riding anything from daily use to long distance adventure touring.
The XT Cross-Touring model comes fitted with wire-spoked wheels, hand guards and engine under cowling as standard equipment and is available in both full-powered and learner approved variants.
The famous 645cm3 V-Twin powerplant has undergone an update, installing new technology such as the resin-coated pistons, and revising over 60 engine components to achieve a higher output in a broad area of the rev-range, while keeping the unique V-Twin character with low fuel consumption.
With low fuel consumption combined with the large 20L fuel tank, the riding range between fill-ups are at the top in this class, relieving the rider from the stress of frequent refuelling.
