Suzuki Motorcycle Adventure Series V STROM 1050 2024 Info

ELECTRICAL FEATURES
The 2024 V-STROM’s instrument panel uses a new-generation 5-inch, full-color TFT LCD screen. This TFT display is the first of its kind on a Suzuki Adventure motorcycle.
This high-quality instrument panel is set into the upper fairing above the handlebars, for good visibility and protection from road debris. The TFT panel, itself, features a scratch-resistant surface, and an anti-reflective coating that improves visibility in bright light.
The brightness adjustable TFT display delivers a wide range of useful information, keeping the rider fully aware of all the bike’s systems, settings, and real-time operating status. The display can be set for manual or automatic switching between Day Mode (white background) and Night Mode (black background). The display’s general brightness can be set to automatically adjust to the ambient light-level, or manually set to suit the rider’s preference.
The TFT panel provides operational information in an easily recognizable way: The left side of the panel has an analog tachometer animation with a sweeping red needle that accurately shows engine speed all the way up to the 9,250 RPM redline. The tachometer can be preset to flash at certain engine speeds, acting like a shift-light. To the left, center of the panel is a digital speedometer, quick-shift system status indicator, and gear position indicator. Directly below the speed display is a fuel level gauge. The upper right portion of the panel displays the clock and S.I.R.S. feature information such as the Traction Control*, plus the S-DMS and ABS** settings. Depending upon the rider’s selection, the lower portion of the right side of the panel can display coolant temperature, ambient air temperature, odometer, dual tripmeters, fuel consumption, and riding range. (*The Traction Control System is not a substitute for the rider's throttle control. It cannot prevent loss of traction due to excessive speed when the rider enters a turn and/or applies the brakes. Neither can it prevent the front wheel from losing grip.) (**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 ride carefully and do not overly rely on ABS.)
THE MAIN TFT PANEL IS FLANKED BY LED INDICATORS, INCLUDING:: Left-turn signal indicator, MIL (Malfunction Indication Lamp), neutral indicator light, master warning indicator, high-beam indicator light, right-turn signal indicator, TC (Traction Control)* indicator, low oil pressure warning light, ABS** indicator, and coolant temperature warning light. (*The Traction Control System is not a substitute for the rider's throttle control. It cannot prevent loss of traction due to excessive speed when the rider enters a turn and/or applies the brakes. Neither can it prevent the front wheel from losing grip.) (**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 ride carefully and do not overly rely on ABS.)
The charging system uses a durable, three-phase stator with an open-style regulator/rectifier that reduces mechanical drag and heat while producing higher output at lower engine speeds. A high-capacity, maintenance-free style battery and fuses are easily accessible under the seat.
A USB-type accessory slot is conveniently located to the left of the instrument panel. This fused slot can provide up to 5.0 VDC at a maximum current of 2.0A. The slot is ideal for powering a GPS unit or charging mobile devices.
A SAE 12-volt, 36W DC socket is located under the passenger seat (electrical accessory wattage should not exceed 12W when the engine is operated a low speeds). This convenient outlet can be used to charge or power a range of electrical devices.
The V-STROM 1050’s fairing features a stacked, rectangular LED headlight for excellent road and trail illumination while matching Suzuki’s Dakar Rally bike styling.
The V-STROM 1050 has lightweight and low-draw LED turn signals that are brighter than the signals used on the prior V-Strom models.
The rear tail and brake light is an LED type with a clear lens that offers higher visibility, low electrical draw, and excellent durability.
ENGINE FEATURES
The liquid-cooled, DOHC, 1037cc, 90-degree, V-twin engine delivers more horsepower with the same level of torque and fuel economy while achieving worldwide emissions compliance.
The perfect primary balance provided by the 90-degree L-twin design negates the need for any balancer shafts or rubber mounting, as the engine has smooth power pulses.
The large-bore, high-compression pistons were engineered with the use of FEM analysis to achieve ideal rigidity, weight, and improved durability.
These pistons move within Suzuki Composite Electrochemical Material (SCEM)–plated cylinder bores that are integrated into the upper crankcase for low weight, increased durability, reduced friction, and excellent heat dissipation.
Both the exhaust and intake camshafts have increased valve lift timing with less overlap to boost engine power while reducing fuel consumption.
The V-STROM 1050 is the first Suzuki motorcycle to employ hollow sodium-filled exhaust valves. These valves help reduce temperature in the combustion chamber, improving flow efficiency and durability.
The Ride-by-Wire electronic throttle system is updated to take advantage of the powerful 32-bit ECM to control the action of the throttle valves with more finely tuned settings that better balance the relationship between throttle action and engine output characteristics. The grip return force is also recalibrated to provide even better feel and control to the rider. Overall, Suzuki’s electronic throttle system is simpler and more compact than a mechanical throttle. Each cylinder is fed by a large, 49mm electronic-controlled throttle body with a single butterfly valve that is opened and closed by its own independent motor for precise throttle control. Since the Ride-by-Wire system does not use mechanical cables, the throttle feel to the rider is smooth and linear. With no cables connected to the throttle grip, installation of a Suzuki accessory heated grip set is simplified.
The V-STROM’s electronic throttle system precisely maintains a stable engine idle under all conditions. This precise idle control is key to the V-STROM’s Low RPM Assist feature that seamlessly adjusts engine speed during takeoff and low-speed riding to smooth the power delivery and to help reduce the possibility of the rider stalling the motorcycle.
Each cylinder has a 10-hole fuel injector, located downstream of the throttle body on the intake manifold, that creates good fuel atomization for superior combustion efficiency and low fuel consumption.
The air cleaner box uses specially designed, elongated intake funnels to boost torque at lower engine speeds to help achieve the V-Twin engine’s unique power characteristics.
The transistorized digital ignition system independently fires the dual spark plugs in each cylinder head for more complete combustion by igniting the mixture at the ideal moment. Twin iridium-type spark plugs are used in the Dual Spark Plug System to deliver a more condensed and hotter spark, yet they last longer than conventional plugs.
The single-silencer exhaust configuration reduces weight and has a low center of gravity to aid handling, maneuverability, and luggage mounting. The V-STROM’s exhaust uses a compact, high-efficiency catalyzer to achieve an effective level of emission control while providing good flow to match the engine’s performance.
Matched to the efficient exhaust, the Suzuki Pulsed Secondary Air Injection (PAIR) system injects fresh air into the exhaust ports to satisfy a variety of US and international emission standards without sacrificing performance.
The V-STROM’s radiator has 15% increased cooling capacity (compared to prior generation V-Strom 1000) to accommodate high engine output. Coolant temperature is stabilized via a thermostatically controlled cooling fan.
A liquid-cooled oil cooler is located where the oil filter is attached to the engine. This compact, lightweight cooler takes up less space than a conventional oil cooler while reducing lubrication oil temperature.
Replaceable plastic shields protect engine parts, such as the clutch cover, from scuffs from the rider’s boots.
A durable bronze finish paint is applied to the cylinder head covers, clutch cover, magneto cover, and water pump case for a striking contrast with the black crankcase.
KEY FEATURES
Finished with a new Glass Blaze Orange and Metallic Matte Black No. 2 colorway, the bodywork is a modern interpretation of the iconic Suzuki DR-Big DAKAR-beak look for true adventure style.
Perfect for the long haul, the 1037cc, V-twin engine produces more horsepower than ever before, retaining its strong pull in the lower-rpm range, delivering good fuel economy while complying with worldwide emissions standards.
Poised to support any riding mission, the Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (S.I.R.S.) now includes cruise control, a bi-directional quick shift system, as well as the Motion Track Brake System that allows ABS** activation when the bike is leaning through a corner.
An all-new, 5-inch color TFT LCD multi-function instrument panel features a display that is clearly legible at nighttime or in bright sun. A USB port to the side of the instrument panel supplies power for smartphones or other accessories like a GPS.
The V-Strom’s narrow and nimble chassis legacy continues with a durable, twin-spar aluminum frame that helps the rider’s legs reach the ground more easily, while balancing weight and rigidity for optimal handling on all types of roads.
The fully adjustable, inverted fork holds radially mounted four-piston brake calipers that grasp dual brake rotors mounted to a 19-inch cast-aluminum front wheel as the 17-inch rear wheel rides in an aluminum swingarm controlled by a link-style shock adsorber with a hand-operated, hydraulic spring preload adjuster.
