Apa yang Harus Diketahui Pembeli
Bulletproof V-Twin Engine
The 645cc V-twin engine is widely regarded as one of the most reliable adventure bike motors ever built, commonly running 100,000+ km with basic maintenance. It shares DNA with the legendary SV650, giving it a proven, long-lasting powerplant.
Watch the Throttle Bodies
Early models (2004–2011) are known for throttle body sync issues causing rough idle and surging, so verify a recent sync has been performed. Also inspect for stator failure on high-mileage examples, a known weak point on pre-2012 bikes.
Strong Resale Value
The V-Strom 650 holds its value exceptionally well due to its cult following and low running costs, making used examples rarely cheap but also easy to resell. The 2012+ XT models with spoked wheels command a noticeable premium over standard versions.
