THE THIRD MOTORCYCLE TO BE launched by Suzuki on the Gixxer 250 platform is the V-Strom SX. This new V-Strom is specific to the Indian market and is aimed at riders who want a machine that can take on long-distance touring. While the V-Strom range is known for its off-road abilities, Suzuki do not intended for this to be used off-road. Suzuki have followed the iconic V-Strom silhouette when it comes to the design language and have done a good job of replicating its larger siblings. The V-Strom SX surely has good presence on the road and it does grab attention, especially because with the bright yellow colour the bike has for this review. The other two options include a black and a red.
Upon closer inspection, we can see that the V-Strom SX uses the same LED headlight as the naked Gixxer 250 which is joined by the good-looking ADV fairing with a large windscreen to protect a rider from windblast on the highway. The rear end gets an LED tail-light cluster, a luggage rack behind the split seat setup, and also sports a sturdy bash-plate for when one decides to venture over the rough stuff. The rectangular digital screen does a good job of displaying basic information and the rider may also pair their smartphone with the Suzuki Ride Connect application via Bluetooth. On the left side of the console, Suzuki have also given a USB charging port-another thing that will come in handy over long rides.
