New DL650X V-Strom

Suzuki has revealed a more extreme version of the V-Strom 650 in the form of the DL650X.

Based on the non-ABS version of the V-Strom 650, the X is aimed at riders who intend to use the bike’s off-road ability.

On top of the standard specification, the bike gets a new screen, a sump guard, crash bars and hand guards. They will be available in red or black, colours unique to the DL650X.

Despite the extra kit, the bike is actually £50 cheaper than the basic V-Strom, with a price of £5,199.
