Suzuki V-Strom 800DE: Must-have on-road accessories
The V-Strom 800DE is an adventure motorcycle and many will opt for on-road use only. This a great motorcycle to cover long distances on the tarmac, and for those looking for add-ons, here’s what you should pick. These accessories offer protection to the motorcycle, while also maximising utility space.
Amongst the accessories to pick for on-road touring, we highly recommend crash protection, aluminium panniers for added storage, a centre stand, a taller screen, and tank pads. There is a lower seat option as well.
Suzuki V-Strom 800DE: Must-have off-road accessories
The 800DE is a capable off-roader, and with a bit of storage, protection, and adjustment, the capabilities can increase. For better off-road capabilities, here’s what one can pick for the V-Strom 800DE from the official list of accessories. Also, the accessories suggested are not rules set in stone, but a mix match of them could work wonders.
For off-roading, we again start with protection, a skid plate, a side stand extender, saddle stays (as they can help mount various other luggage), and the adjustable brake lever if necessary.
