2025 Suzuki V-Strom 800DE Champion Yellow

The New V-Strom 800DE Engine

V-STROM 800DE’s newly developed 776cm3 parallel-twin DOHC engine delivers a fine balance of smooth, controllable power from low rpm and the pleasant feeling of free-revving performance to the high end.  

V-STROM 800DE’s engine is ideal for the back roads. It demonstrates tenacious staying power at extremely low speeds, which makes for easy control on gravel and hard dirt roads. 
This new engine introduces Suzuki Cross Balancer, which suppresses vibration for smoother operation and contributes to a lightweight powerplant that is more compact from front to rear. 
Finally, the six-speed transmission realizes smooth shifting and improved controllability, and Suzuki Clutch Assist System (SCAS) helps reduce fatigue on long rides and contributes to smoother shifting.  

Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (SIRS)

The Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (SIRS) is a system that better supports the rider in matching performance to the riding conditions, riding surface or preferred riding style, resulting in a more pleasurable ride. 

• Bi-directional Quick Shift system (with ON/OFF) provides quicker and smoother operation without the need to operate the clutch lever
• Suzuki Traction Control System (STCS) with optional G (gravel) mode allows the rider to match the performance of the bike to the riding conditions to better negotiate gravel roads and dirt roads
• Ride-by-wire electronic throttle responds faithfully to the rider’s intentions
• ABS system with 2 mode settings + off allows the rider to control braking performance on gravel
• Suzuki Easy Start System starts the engine with one quick press of the starter button
• Low RPM assist helps maintain engine idle speed for smoother and easier starts
• Suzuki Clutch Assist System (SCAS) realizes a light touch to clutch lever operation that helps reduce fatigue on long rides and contributes to smoother shifting 

Rugged Design, Nimble Handling, Superior Ride

The V-Strom 800DE features a rugged new steel frame that contributes to comfort, straight-line stability and nimble handling. Narrow profile seat rails are engineered to handle the rigors of unpaved surfaces, even with optional sidecases mounted. 

Front and Rear Stroke

• The Longest Front and Rear Stroke Available on V-Strom
• With 220mm ground clearance the V-Strom 800DE has more ground clearance than any other V-Strom model.  

Adjustable Suspension for a Better Ride

The fully-adjustable Hitachi Astemo (SHOWA) inverted front forks, with a long 220mm stroke, deliver a smooth controllable ride, while the adjustable SHOWA link-type rear suspension with 220mm of travel contributes to agility and stability. Additionally, the spring preload can be adjusted by hand when adding a passenger or luggage.

Rear Tire

With dual front 310mm diameter disc brakes, the V-Strom 800DE provides the comfort and reassurance of sure stopping power and controllability. 

Front Tire

Attractive and functional wire-spoked 21-inch front and 17-inch rear Dunlop Trailmax Mixtour adventure tires feature a semi-block pattern and custom-engineered internal structure.  

Swingarm

The uniquely shaped lightweight aluminum swingarm has enhanced torsional rigidity to support the increased suspension travel and contributes to straight line stability. 

Knuckle Guards

The V-Strom 800DE also features knuckle guards to protect your hands from the elements, a plastic under cover and it is the first V-Strom to feature a radiator guard, protecting against flying stones or other objects on unpaved roads.

Fuel Tank

A large 20-L capacity fuel tank means fewer stops to deliver superior touring range.

Windscreen

Experience less fatigue with the shock-absorbing wide tapered handlebars that use a strong yet flexible aluminum material.  

A short windscreen maximizes visibility when exploring gravel surfaces yet protects the rider from buffeting when touring at higher speeds.

Seat

As well, the solid-mount rider seat is rugged to withstand the input load of riding on unpaved surfaces, and rubber-covered footpegs with slip-resistant surface allow freedom of movement and an upright riding position.

V-Strom 800DE Electronics

V-STROM 800DE features a new 5-inch colour TFT LCD multi-function instrument panel with both day and night visibility features for easy operability in all light conditions. A USB port is built into the left side of the meter cluster.

LED Lighting

It also features full LED lighting with both the front stacked headlight for a clear view of what’s ahead, along with compact LED position lights, turn signals, and tail light to ensure visibility. 

V-Strom 800DE Styling

V-Strom 800DE features functional beauty that symbolizes the future of Suzuki design, while respecting the V-Strom heritage. 
The distinctive V-Strom “beak” is positioned higher to visually convey the extended suspension stroke and the model’s ability to handle gravel and dirt roads. The bodywork features flatter surfaces with sharp lines, exciting colours and dynamic decals.
