V-Strom 650XT

Suzuki's V-Strom 650XT combines the SV650's proven V-twin with a spoked-wheel adventure chassis and a 5.8-gallon fuel tank — the best range in the entry-mid ADV class. Used supply at $4,000–$7,500 spans a decade of nearly unchanged models, creating an unusually flat depreciation curve that makes the 650XT a standout ADV value on the used market.
