• Updated six-speed transmission realizes smoother shifting and improved controllability – UPDATE
• Dual Spark Technology to maximize combustion efficiency
• Suzuki Clutch Assist System (SCAS) realizes a light touch to clutch lever operation that helps reduce fatigue on long rides and contributes to smoother shifting

SUZUKI INTELLIGENT RIDE SYSTEM (SIRS)

Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (SIRS) is a system that better supports the rider in matching performance to the riding conditions, surface or preferred riding style. For the V-STROM 1050DE, emphasis is on riding unpaved roads, so SIRS offers terrain-specific features.

• Bi-directional Quick Shift system (with ON/OFF) provides quicker and smoother operation without the need to operate the clutch lever – NEW!
• Suzuki Traction Control System (STCS) features a new G (Gravel) model to better negotiate gravel roads – NEW!
• Ability to switch off rear ABS for better performance on gravel – NEW!
• Ride-by-wire electronic throttle to respond faithfully to the rider’s intentions with a slightly stiffer grip action when opening the throttle to deliver greater controllability and an even more natural feel – UPDATE
• Cruise Control System is updated to allow for a broader range of speed and gear settings – UPDATE
• 3 mode settings + off allow the rider to control the performance characteristics
• Motion Track Brake System allows ABS activation when the bike is leaning into a corner
• Hill Hold Control System helps ensure smoother restarts after stopping on an incline
• Slope Dependent Control System provides more stable braking when travelling downhill
• Load Dependent Control System supports optimal braking when carrying a load
• Suzuki Easy Start System starts the engine with a quick press of the starter button
• Suzuki’s Low RPM Assist function helps maintain engine idle speed for smoother and easier starts

THE V-STROM DL1050DE CHASSIS

The V-STROM 1050DE has custom chassis geometry with a longer rake and wheelbase to improve stability and controllability when riding on unpaved surfaces. The twin-spar aluminum alloy frame has updated seat rails that better support the input load from unpaved terrain. With fully adjustable KYB inverted front forks and adjustable link-type rear suspension, the ride is smooth, controllable, agile and stable. For sure stopping power and controllability, V-STROM 1050DE has four-piston radial-mount front brake callipers mated with 310mm floating-mount dual discs.

V-STROM 1050DE ELECTRONIC FEATURES

V-STROM 1050DE features a new 5-inc colour TFT LCD multi-function instrument panel with both day and night visibility features for easy operability in all light conditions. A USB port is built into the left side of the meter cluster and a 12V DC outlet is supplied under the seat to charge devices.

LED LIGHTING

It also features full LED lighting with both the front stacked headlight for a clear view of what’s ahead, along with compact LED position lights, turn signals and tail light to ensure visibility.

SCAS - Suzuki Clutch Assist System

Suzuki Clutch Assist System (SCAS) - a back-torque-limiting clutch helps make downshifts smoother, assists the rider in taking control in deceleration. Ramped engagement cams built into the clutch hub decrease force on the clutch plates under deceleration by pushing up against the pressure plate, allowing the plates to slip at a controlled rate.

SDMS - Suzuki Drive Mode Selector

Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (S-DMS) system allows the rider to select one of three fuel injection and ignition system maps (2 maps in the case of GSX-R750/600), adjusting power delivery to suit personal preference in various riding situations, such as different racetracks or tight, twisty roads. Selecting and switching between mode settings is by a switch on the handlebar; the selected mode setting is displayed on the tachometer. The feature helps the rider to enjoy the performance in a wider range of riding situations. * The technology is used in GSX-R1000, 750, 600, DL1050 and Hayabusa.

Easy Start System

On a normal motorcycle when starting the engine, the rider needs to press and hold the starter switch until the engine fires up. With the Suzuki Easy Start, all you need to do is one quick push of the starter switch, just like starting a modern car engine. The ECM recognizes the signals and keeps the starter motor working for a specified time.

SET - Suzuki Exhaust Tuning

Suzuki Exhaust Tuning (SET) system, which uses a servo-controlled butterfly valve to modify back pressure and tune the pipe to match engine rpm. At lower rpm, the valve closes, increasing back pressure and improving low-end torque. The valve progressively opens as engine speed increases, reducing back pressure and increasing mid-range and high-rpm power.

ABS - Anti-Lock Braking System

An electrically controlled Antilock Brake System (ABS) that produces stable braking force under various road surface conditions. The system helps avoid wheel locking when there is a sudden change in road surface during braking or when an excessive braking force is applied. The system monitors wheel speed 50 times per wheel rotation and matches stopping power to available traction. * Depending on road surface conditions, such as wet, loose, or uneven roads, braking distance for an ABS equipped vehicle may be longer than for a vehicle not equipped with ABS. ABS cannot prevent wheel skidding caused by braking while cornering. Please drive carefully and do not overly rely on ABS.

SDTV - Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve System

Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve (SDTV) digital fuel-injection system. In SDTV induction system, each throttle body barrel has two butterfly valves, a primary valve controlled by the twist grip and a secondary valve controlled by the ECM based on engine rpm, gear selection and the position of the primary valve. The secondary butterfly valve opens and closes to maintain ideal intake air velocity, improving high combustion efficiency, thus resulting in a linear throttle response, increased low-to-mid range torque.

SCEM - Suzuki Composite Electrochemical Material

Suzuki Composite Electrochemical Material (SCEM) is Suzuki’s own nickel-silicon-carbide coating technique derived from racetrack experience. SCEM cylinders allow faster heat transfer and tighter piston-to-cylinder clearance, for superb durability and resistance to scuffing.

STCS - Suzuki Traction Control System

Suzuki’s traction control system continuously monitors front and rear wheel speeds, throttle position sensor, crank position sensor and gear position sensor, and quickly reduces engine output when wheel spin is detected. Engine output is controlled by managing ignition timing and air delivery to ensure smoother traction control operation. As a result, the rider can enjoy more comfortable long-distance riding, with less stress and fatigue.
