Rider Profile

Best ForSuited to intermediate and experienced riders who want a versatile adventure-tourer rather than a beginner's first bike.
PurposeBuilt primarily for long-distance touring and mixed on/off-road adventure riding with occasional light gravel work.
Rider FitA tall seat height and substantial 233 kg wet weight mean shorter or less experienced riders may find low-speed handling and U-turns demanding.
CharacterA torquey V-twin adventure bike that favors relaxed, confident cruising and long-haul comfort over outright sportiness.
Not Ideal ForNot ideal for riders seeking a lightweight track-focused sportbike or a nimble city commuter.

2019 Suzuki V-Strom 1000XT Adventure Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 850mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with tip-toe one foot on the 2019 Suzuki V-Strom 1000XT Adventure, with a relaxed knee angle of around 140 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
