SUZUKIS UP FOR THE ROUGH STUFF
Dr Big reborn!
Suzuki's meat and veg adventure bikes (selling nearly 250,000 units since 2002), the V-Strom range, get a nice looking overhaul for 2017. The 650, an amazingly overlooked bike, gets the sort of makeover that will raise a few eyebrows with a standard version and an XT. A revised motor, a slither of weight loss and a traction control system is all good news. The DR-Big styling is similarly welcome, along with nice to haves like a power outlet, higher windscreen and easy to fit luggage options. The 1000 gets the new DR-Big design makeover, the Motion Track Brake System as seen on the GSX-R1000, a new screen and a smidge more torque. We like `em.
