Will do, it will be a bit of a comedown from my ZZR1400 but I loved the Strom when I tested it, here's hoping things will go well.

Picked up my vstrom this afternoon, me and the missus had a nice ride home, fitted my power bronze hugger this evening, dead easy and well pleased with the givi trecker 52l top box that goes perfect with the panniers, 80 MPH running in too, how good is that, fabulous clutch and gearbox too, roll on 600 mile service lol

Can anyone confirm whether the Suzuki £1000 discount applies to the VStrom 1000?
Thanks

Nearly got 400 miles on her, first service booked for next Monday, still smiling at the agile sweet light handling.
I must reccomend the givi trecker 52l top box I had fitted, perfect match to the panniers and the rest of the bike, makes up for the smallish panniers, also impressed with how the scottoiler works too. :lala:
