Suzuki V-Strom SX Experience Day: 300 Riders Tackle Urban Enduro Track in Vadodara
Suzuki Motorcycle India Pvt. Ltd. (SMIPL) successfully hosted the V-Strom SX Experience Day in Vadodara, Gujarat, on February 24, 2026. The one-day event took place at the Mehsana Nagar Garba Ground in Nizampura, drawing nearly 300 motorcycle enthusiasts eager to test the crossover’s capabilities.
Pushing Limits on a Specially Designed Track
The event featured a custom-built urban enduro track designed to simulate real-world unpaved roads and distinct terrains. Participants navigated several challenge sections to test the motorcycle’s engineering, including:
- Rumble strips and tyre pits
- Drum pits and sand pits
- A gravel pro zone
These segments were specifically curated to demonstrate the V-Strom SX’s balance, low-speed handling, and stability on uneven surfaces. Beyond the track, riders interacted with motorcycle experts and current owners to gain practical insights into long-distance touring and performance.
Executive Insight and Rider Feedback
Deepak Mutreja, Vice-President of Sales & Marketing at Suzuki Motorcycle India, emphasized the importance of providing hands-on exposure to the bike’s “crossover DNA”.

Many riders want to understand how the V-Strom SX performs beyond city roads, and this platform gives them firsthand exposure to its crossover DNA. We are delighted with the enthusiastic response in Vadodara and look forward to engaging with more customers across India.”
The sentiment was echoed by participants, with one rider noting the accessibility of the machine for those new to the segment.
“I am a cruise biker, and I rode the V-Strom SX, an adventure motorcycle, for the first time. The motorcycle impressed me with its smooth gear shifting, soft suspension, and strong pick-up. It is one of the best options in the 250cc segment and is offered at a very reasonable price. It is an ideal motorcycle for beginners who want to enter the adventure motorcycling category.”
