When Suzuki introduced the GSX-8S and V-Strom 800DE at EICMA 2022, fans of middleweight sport nakeds and adventure bikes had something new to get excited about. Powered by Suzuki’s new 776cc parallel-twin engine with 270-degree crankshaft, the possibilities for both bikes are intriguing. As a company that sells its bikes worldwide, of course, pricing and availability vary by region—so as new bikes roll out, some of us have to wait to find out the details until it’s our turn.
On January 12, 2023, Suzuki Motor USA officially announced its pricing and availability information for both bikes in the American market. If all things go according to plan, adventure riders will be the first to get their hands on Suzuki’s highly anticipated new middleweights. Both the 2023 Suzuki V-Strom 800DE and the DE Adventure are expected to hit showrooms in May, 2023.
