Road test: 2004 Suzuki DL650 V-Strom

The motor is the same hardy 90 degree V-Twin with its double overhead cam, 8-valve with a revised cam profile to take advantage of its intended usage. The changes center on providing a stronger low-to-mid torque shove. The Electronic fuel injection features Suzuki's Dual Throttle Valve System (SDTV) a system that maintains optimum air velocity in the intake tract for a smoothed out low-to-mid rpm throttle response too.
