Market and trim notes
This sheet covers the Suzuki V-Strom 250SX as listed in the Indonesian distributor’s current catalogue. Market-specific equipment can differ from the same nameplate in another country, so the figures are not interchangeable.
The Indonesian page swaps the seat-height and ground-clearance labels, so both are withheld here. Power and torque are also unpublished on that page.

What the numbers mean
At 167 kg it is a two-person job to move uphill; plan parking before you stop.
The 12 L tank is large enough for weekend distances without planning every fuel stop. The manufacturer does not publish a consumption figure, so this page does not quote a range.
Tyres are 100/90-19M/C 57S, tubeless front and 140/70-17M/C 66S, tubeless rear. Check that your local shop stocks both before a long trip.

Ownership and maintenance notes
- Clean and lubricate the chain at short intervals in rain or dust, and check slack with the bike on its side stand. A loose chain wears sprockets quickly; a tight one loads the output bearing.
- Check tyre pressures cold. On a light bike a few psi matters more than it does on a car, and it changes both steering and tyre life.
- After water crossings or dusty tracks, check the air filter and chain first. Dirt reaches both before it reaches the oil.
- Inspect the brake pads after muddy rides; grit embedded in a pad wears a disc faster than normal road use.
- The 19-inch front wheel opens up more tyre choices than a 17-inch adventure bike, but check availability in your size before a long trip.
- The single-cylinder engine is oil-cooled, so there is no radiator or coolant to check. Keep the oil level correct and the cooling fins clear; a small single works harder on a long climb than its capacity suggests.
Source and verification
Figures are taken from Suzuki Indonesia, the Indonesian distributor, on 13 November 2026.

Cooling, final drive is inferred from the published layout rather than printed as a separate field.
Wording is quoted as published; spacing and unit symbols are normalised. Specification databases go stale: if a figure here differs from the current distributor page, the distributor page wins, and this sheet records what was published on the verification date.
