The Suzuki V-Strom SX is based on the 250 cc Suzuki Gixxer 250 and is powered by the same 249 cc, single-cylinder engine which makes 26.1 bhp at 9,300 rpm and 22.2 Nm of peak torque at 7,300 rpm. Dressed in ADV clothing, the V-Strom SX is more of a sport tourer than an off-road ready true-blue adventure bike. With a design and stance that makes it look bigger than what it is, coupled with a tractable engine and very good road manners, the Suzuki V-Strom SX has made a strong impression in India.

It comes with dual-channel ABS, and the wheels are shod with block-pattern dual-sport tyres. Suzuki also intends to introduce the made-in-India V-Strom SX in other markets apart from Japan.
