Buyer's Guide > V-Strom 650
Colours shown may not be available in Canada.
This is the street-going version of the V-Strom 650, with cast rims. There's three-level traction control, which is rare for an entry-level adventure bike, along with some other electronic trickery to make it easier to operate. The V-Strom has long been a respected machine at a reasonable price, and the latest edition solidifies that reputation. While not as offroad-friendly as many other 650s, it's a much better machine on the street.
