Handling
The Suzuki V-Strom 250 had impressed me with its handling during our first ride from Dharamshala to Manali and it continues to do so. The best part is that the bike feels so nimble that you forget that it’s running a 19-inch wheel at the front as the sensation and feel one gets is that of a 17-inch wheel. At high speeds the front end might feel a bit vague but trust the tyres to take you through the corner and you will be surprised by its handling prowess.
Fuel Efficiency
For a good tourer, munching miles should be supplemented by good range. On this note, the Suzuki V-Strom 250 fared decently. It returned around 32kmpl overall, which isn’t bad given the fact that I spent quite a distance commuting the internal roads of Goa. With a fuel tank capacity of 12 litres, one is looking at a real world range of around 300km before stopping for refuelling.
Gearbox
Honestly, I had to dig deep to find a flaw with the Suzuki V-Strom 250 and my only critique is its gearbox. While the clutch action is light, shifting through the gears required effort and my ankle got a good workout during my ride to Goa. The sluggish gearbox is more bothersome at slow speeds and in traffic.
