V-STROM 250 SX
Lightweight Versatile Crossover
What could further enhance the already widely popular V-STROM lineup? The answer is a new addition to the family: The V-STROM 250SX. The “S” stands for “sports” and the “X” stands for “crossover.” With the kind of presence to make onlookers do a double-take and the performance to back it up, this sport adventure tourer blends rugged versatility with stylish, modern looks. Equally at home cruising in town as it is rolling along an unpaved road in search of the next scenic vista, the V-STROM 250SX caters to riders who want their motorcycle to be able to take them down many different kinds of roads, and look good while doing it. A rider-focused feature set adds convenience and comfort to an already eye-catching and tough machine.
It features rugged yet sporty looks, slim proportions, a lightweight feel and the legendary reliability synonymous with the V-STROM series. From beginners to returning riders to the well-experienced looking for a lightweight breath of fresh air, the V-STROM 250SX delivers all that and more.
With the V-STROM 250SX comes toughness, sportiness, and convenience all rolled into one package. In city riding or hot conditions, the Suzuki Oil Cooling System (SOCS) keeps the engine cool, and the short-style dual-exit muffler and separate seat give it a sporty look that riders will want to be seen on. The slim, nimble chassis and light weight (167kg wet) makes it simple to manoeuvre and accessible for riders of all sizes.
On unpaved, flat dirt roads, the 19-inch front wheel and ample ground clearance add a sense of stability to the ride, while a functional windscreen and hand guards make it an ideal partner for touring as well. When it comes to carrying passengers or luggage, the V-STROM 250SX excels with a handy rear carrier that also functions as a grab bar. It is perfectly capable of getting around town to get things done, then packing up to go on an adventure for the weekend.
Even when the roads between point A and point B lead you off the beaten path, the V-STROM 250SX has what it takes to get riders where they want to go with style and convenience – and have a great time doing it! Expanding horizons, making the routine exciting, and enriching every ride is what the V-STROM 250SX is all about.
ONE OF A KIND - V-Strom DNA
Naturally, the V-Strom 250 shares the same outdoor adventure DNA as its siblings, with design cues such as its yellow colour scheme and unique 'beak' paying tribute to Suzuki's famed DR-Z and DR-BIG desert racers.

Full LCD Instrument Panel

Optimised Powerplant
The engine underwent thorough analysis and optimisation to maximise low- to mid-range torque and provide a powerful ride that features ease of control.
Maximum Acceleration
The cam profile for the V-Strom 250 delivers maximum acceleration performance at speeds between 20km/ h to 90km/h, as this is the range that is used most often.
Optimised Windscreen
The compact windscreen benefits from repeated wind tunnel testing to optimise its shape, providing highly effective shielding for a more comfortable ride.
Side Case Attachment
Designing dedicated mounting clips to accommodate the optional Genuine Suzuki side cases makes for an integrated design that matches the bike. The large aluminium rear carrier with 8.5kg maximum capacity is fitted with hooks for attaching straps and can also be used for attaching the optional top case.
Anti-lock Brake System
An Antilock Brake System (ABS) made by BOSCH delivers greater confidence and control.
Simple yet effective design
A 12V DC outlet located adjacent to the instrument cluster produces 12V/36W when riding 12V/12W at idle for added user convenience.
- Smart Design - The cylinder head adopts roller type rocker arms that minimise friction loss
- Round Headlight - The shell surrounding the headlight is designed to resemble a hard anodized finish flashlight.
