Default 2 days to go

... and finally I can do my test-ride on a K3 V-Strom.

Had to wait 2 week before the dealer got hemself a test-machine. ( Suzuki Belgium stops the demo runs after 15/09 )

When I like it. I will trade in my Honda Transalp for a brand new blue V-Strom K3.

only 2 nights to go

Did a test ride today and...

I LOVE IT.

What a nice bike to ride.

Lot's of power. Easy to handle. Easy in the turns.

So, I'm going to trade in my Transalp and hopefully i have my DL next week.

Let us know how you like it, e.g. clutch (basket) and that new windshield.

On the Honda, the wind hits the shoulders, upper arms en head.

Using the standard wind shield on the V-Strom ( during my test ride ) the arms and shoulders are wind-free. Only got wind on the helmet.

I think (later) I will try to find something like the 'laminar lip'.
I know MRA has something ( they call it the varioscreen)

I'll keep you all informed.

If MRA has something for the Strom I would really be interested. I've had them on several bikes. Let us know if you hear something.
