An attractive profile coming and going – the new Suzuki V-Strom.

The V-Strom offers low and comfortable seating positions.

Remarkable design, definitely Italian – The Aprilia Caponord.

Only 820 mm high, the Aprilia's is the lowest seating position in the class.

Maneuvering a mere 456 pounds over the landscape is loads of fun. The V-Strom is the lightweight in this class.

Curvy roads enjoyed with the easy handling Caponord.

The Caponord's miniscule swingarm fits the whole Italian concept.

The heavy-looking V-Strom swingarm is not the greatest tribute to designer aesthetics.
