The Suzuki V-strom 800 has a top speed of 185 km/h (estimated), produces 83 hp and weighs 220 kg. Motoryk rates it 8.5/10.
La Suzuki V-Strom 800DE a été introduite pour l'année modèle 2023, marquant une expansion significative de la gamme V-Strom avec un nouveau moteur bicylindre parallèle de 776 cm3 remplaçant l'ancien monocylindre V-Strom 650. Il a été conçu pour combler le fossé entre le V-Strom 650 et le 1050, en offrant une plate-forme d'aventure plus performante dotée d'une électronique avancée, de roues à rayons métalliques et de capacités tout-terrain. Le 800DE a rapidement été reconnu pour son équilibre entre confort sur route et polyvalence hors route, ce qui en fait un vélo d'aventure compétitif de taille moyenne.

Ce que les acheteurs doivent savoir
Proven Engine Platform
The 776cc parallel-twin engine is derived from the GSX-8S, a motor known for strong low-to-mid range torque and solid reliability. Suzuki's conservative engine tuning means it's built to last with proper maintenance intervals.
Watch the Chain Wear
Early owner reports suggest the stock chain and sprockets wear faster than expected, particularly for riders who frequently carry loads or a passenger. Budget for an early chain replacement and consider upgrading to a higher-quality aftermarket chain.
Strong Value Proposition
The V-Strom 800 is priced competitively against rivals like the Yamaha Ténéré 700 and Honda NC750X while offering more standard features, which helps support solid resale value. Its broad appeal to both new and experienced riders keeps used demand healthy.
Évaluation d'un acheteur d'occasion
"A genuinely brilliant do-everything middleweight that rarely disappoints serious riders."
$7,500-$10,500 usedThe V-Strom 800 sits in a genuinely sweet spot — not too heavy, not too small, with that 776cc parallel-twin punching harder than the numbers suggest. Real-world power delivery is smooth and linear, which makes it forgiving without feeling boring. The riding position is comfortable for long days without feeling like you're piloting a barge through traffic. When shopping used, check the chain tension and sprocket wear first — owners who thrash these and ignore maintenance intervals aren't rare. Also inspect the beak fairing for tip-over damage since parking lot drops happen. The TFT display and connectivity features on the DE trim are genuinely useful rather than gimmicky, so try to find one with that spec. Resale values have held stubbornly firm, meaning you're unlikely to find a bargain, but you're also protected when you sell. Budget for a decent luggage setup — the stock options are pricey. Overall it's an honest, capable machine that rewards sensible riders rather than punishing them.
