It has been a few years since Suzuki offered a V-Strom 1000, but now the model is set to return in 2014 with bold styling and an extensive equipment list.
The new bike has been previewed in concept form at the Intermot Show in Cologne, and it features a 1,000 cc liquid-cooled V-twin engine that sits in a lightweight aluminium frame.

Included in the specification will be anti-lock brakes, traction control and a slim line luggage system that shouldn’t add too much extra width.
Whether that’s going to be enough remains to be seen, though. The V-Strom 1000 will be entering an increasingly crowded and competitive market sector, and it’ll have to try and steal sales from rivals such as the Triumph Explorer and BMW R 1200 GS.
