Suzuki's new 2012 V-Strom ABS may have been on sale in Australia since November but examples of the 2011-spec machine can stil be found -- which is why Suzuki Australia is currently pushing them out the door for just $9990 rideaway. That's a significant saving over the model's regular recommended retail price of $10,390.
Powered by a 645cc, fuel-injected, liquid-cooled V-twin engine, the outgoing model has won itself a legion of fans since its 2004 debut, for its excellent fuel range, upright and roomy ride position, zesty performance and excellent luggage carrying ability. Its list of features includes, among others, an adjustable windscreen, long-travel suspension and a sizeable 22-litre fuel tank.
