Just walked out to my garage to reassure my Beatrix (Blue, 07)...

"Don't worry. Daddy loves you. No one can replace you."

Slightly smaller fuel tank, isn't it? Not a big deal, but, you know...anything to keep me from making a poor financial decision :sneaky2:

Close gear ratio...gladius motor will make you unhappy in the dirt. High 1st gear has you clutching to death on any difficult road

I assume same low quality suspension components as there was no mention of them

SV< GLADIUS parts bin...... and a little lip stick..

I am sure they can (excuse the spelling) homologous them so they can pass emissions for all 3 bikes using same motor

I hear there's another new one coming for 2020 with better brakes and suspension and an 800 CC motor :biggrinjester:

But, is it coming to America? How much more will it cost? I will wait and see. Meanwhile my '05 Wee is safe. We have grown use to each other.

There is already two other previous threads on the 2012 V-strom here... Suzuki has the bike on their US and Canadian websites for the last week or so... We get the black and orange version(s):thumbup:
