The V-Strom 800RE has a large 20L fuel tank to offer extended riding range for long distance touring, making it between infrequent refuelling points in more remote areas or just having to stop less often on the regular commute. Combined with the frugal 64.12MPG this gives the V-Strom a theoretical range of over 280 miles.
Travel any road, using a powerful and torquey engine, whilst enjoying the comfort of a well cushioned seat and wide protective screen.

POWER YOUR ADVENTURES
The V-Strom 800RE is powered by a 776cc DOHC 270° crank parallel twin engine, with four valves per cylinder and a long-stroke configuration it delivers a balance of punchy low-down grunt, usable mid-range drive and a free-revving pull, all the way to the top-end.
TOURING COMFORT AND EVERYDAY CONVENIENCE
The design is a lightweight chassis, created to maximise agility, comfort, utility, and riding pleasure. The result of its development is a chassis that will contribute to comfort when touring for long distances, but also give great cornering performance and provide stable handling under all riding environments. It also delivers reassuring straight-line stability when riding at motorway speeds, even when carrying a passenger and when the bike is fitted with the genuine-accessory top and sides cases and loaded with gear.
COMFORT AND CONTROL
Show a Separate Function Fork – Big Piston (SFF-BP) inverted front forks deliver stable damping characteristics that make them suitable for long touring, with a spring rate that is optimised for both solid cornering performance as well as straight-line stability. The spring preload can be adjusted, allowing the suspension to be set to best match the rider’s preference or the usage conditions. The rear shock absorber can be adjusted for spring preload and rebound damping, with a remote adjuster making setting the spring preload easier. This is particularly beneficial when preparing to ride with a passenger or luggage.
DEDICATED CHASSIS GEOMETRY
The V-Strom 800RE features a dedicated chassis geometry engineered to provide maximum stability and controllability, as well as a riding position that effectively distributes weight to the front and rear and is comfortable on long-distance rides. With a view to enhancing on-road cornering performance, the handlebar and footpeg positioning uses a slightly forward leaning posture. This riding position provides more precise control. The V-Strom 800RE also lends the passenger added comfort because they have plenty of space and can sit without overly bending their knees. The geometry achieved also enhances handling stability, even when carrying a passenger and with the top and side cases mounted.
