The 270-degree crankshaft configuration provides similar power delivery characteristics as the 90-degree V-twins used in other V-STROM models, while producing a unique and exciting exhaust note.Suzuki Cross Balancer technology, patented by Suzuki and used for the first time on a production motorcycle, helps create a compact, lightweight design that delivers smooth operation.TransmissionThe six-speed transmission features gear ratios that deliver exciting acceleration, whether shifting normally or when using the standard-equipment Bi-directional Quick Shift system to shift without clutch operation.The V-STROM 800DE Adventure’s precise shift linkage helps the rider easily and quickly select the ideal gear for the riding conditions.ChassisDesigned around the compact parallel twin engine and constructed with rugged steel pipe, the V-STROM 800DE Adventure’s backbone style frame was engineered to help provide the foundational strength required for excellent straight-line performance and nimble handling when negotiating rugged trails or touring at highway speeds.Developed exclusively for the V-STROM 800DE and 800DE Adventure, the SHOWA supplied front fork and single-shock rear suspensions’ spring rate and damping force settings were tuned to maximize performance and comfort when riding on all surfaces, on- or off-road. The long travel suspension offers 8.7-inch (220mm) for both the front and rear.ElectricalThe V-STROM 800DE Adventure’s instrument panel uses a full-color, 5-inch TFT screen.The V-STROM 800DE Adventure has lightweight and low-draw LED lighting all the way around offering superior visibility and excellent durability.Body & StylingRetaining the prominent “beak” that was pioneered on Suzuki’s legendary DR-Z Dakar racer and the large DualSport DR-Big, the lines of the body work are sharper with flatter surfaces to create a tough yet sophisticated look. Different colored panels feature angular lines that further amplify the V-STROM 800DE Adventure’s modern, aggressive look.The fuel tank has a generous 5.3-gallon (20L) capacity but is shaped to be thin at the rear to flow into the slim seat, which aids the rider in touching the ground at stops.
