What is up! I'm the happy owner of a 09 650, coming from SW Virginia. I'm new to riding and this is my first bike - I've taken the MSF and knew I needed a bike asap. Saw this on Facebook the next weekend, test rode and bought on the spot. Im clearly still a bit green and need to work on my...

2017 V-Strom 650 with premium upgrades totaling nearly $5,000. Garage kept with full detailed service history. Upgrades include premium suspension front & rear, bigger/better brakes, high-end protection, and many more listed below. 15,400 miles at time of listing. Clean title in hand...

Hello all, I just opened up my 05 Wee (with about 115,000 miles on the clock) to do a valve adjustment for the first time and found both the front and rear cam chains extremely loose. Both tensioners seem to be working correctly. They are fully extended, the locking pawls are engaged, and...

As the title implies my 09 DL650A has a little headlight problem. Let me start by saying that my headlight issue is NOT from the starter switch assembly on the right side. Its brand new from suzuki and I put it in less than 2 months ago. The headlights flicker on and off and i cant find the...

Thank you for letting me join. I just bought an '07 V-Strom 650 from a local seller ($3600 off of CgList). I'm a new rider overall—BRC in August, endorsed & first bike a new 2016 K Vulcan 900D. I've put 3000 mi on it via a 12 mi one way commute daily (Seattle, I-5) and touring the countryside...

So. I've almost got the money saved. (My treasurer/wife is big on "no debt for nuttin' that isn't a house.") Been watching here, Craigslist, and ADVRider to see what's available used and what's a good deal vs. not a good deal. Definitely want a 650, ideally already with luggage (my Excel...

First time to post in awhile. This is a summary to supplement my setup videos.

Hi All, First post here. I had an accident while out on some remote trails a few weeks ago. Thankfully I'm fine and the bike only suffered cosmetic damage--headlight and lower fairings. I'm going with the X2 headlight for durability and much cheaper service/replacement--I take good care of my...

Hey everyone, I'm looking into building a raspberry pi trip recorder mount for my Wee. I already built the trip recorder that logs video, GPS, Temp, Speed and some other things, but I'm having a hard time finding a place to mount it without hurting my wee :(. I don't want to drill or use...

Disclaimer: I apologize in advance for all poor quality photo's my phone was giving it all she's got but that ain't much. Promise to only have higher quality after I get the better phone on the 15th. It's still summer and I'm a bit bored so I figured I'd type up how this little lady got to be...

Hi all, new to sign up but have been lurking for some time now. I'm a newer rider and have been looking for something cheap enough I won't have an aneurysm if I drop it but that will treat me right if I do the same and while looking I quickly decided I'd like to get a Vstrom. Recently I came...

I've been looking to buy a wee strom for a little while now. I haven't seen too many used ones for sale in my area. I recently came across a listing on c'list for a 2005 vstrom 650 with the usual farkles (hard cases, center stand, dc accesories plug) listed for $2900. Seems good, the only...

I am looking to buy my brother a new set of pegs for his Wee he bought recently but I am having trouble trying to find some, mainly because I don't know what to search for on eBay or google.... So can someone point me in the direction of some wide pegs which tilt/swivel which are compatible...

I'm in the process of converting a BOB Ibex cargo trailer (made for bicycles) to pull behind my Wee. I'm sharing this info, because it was here, about a year or so back, that I got the original idea. I'm really not interested in any of your opinions regarding the pros and cons of trailering...

Has anyone ever planned a meet? I say that we pick a location like Raleigh, Greenville or Fayetteville. Pick a restaurant with a decent parking lot, lets all ride in, have a meal and see if we can't make some riding buddies. If nothing else, we can look at each others bikes and get some...

Y'know, I'm a little surprised this section isn't called Stromspotting. Anyway, leaving Toronto shortly after my birthday, my girlfriend spotted this gem on Spadina Avenue south of College. She even recognized it without the plate, which is a good sign, but I suppose with that kind of...

If I've got the time off I'm giving serious consideration to entering the 2014 APC Rally. (I should know by October whether or not I do) Has anyone here done it before? ...on a Wee? http://rally.australianpropertycentre.net.au/...

I'm looking specifically for a set of crash bars which provides protection for the lower edge of the radiator. I'm not interested in protecting plastics, those are easily replaced. I've absolutely no problem with riding home without an indicator and/or fairing. From what I can tell the only...
