  • Candy Daring Red / Glass Sparkle Black - a bold red and black livery option. 

Not to be left out, the V-Strom 1050XT Tour Edition will also receive the same updates as the 1050XT - and will come with additional three-piece 112-litre aluminium luggage.

Launched in 2020, the V-Strom 1050 range all feature the same 107PS (105bhp) V-Twin engine, outputting 100Nm of torque at 6000 revs, with a host of smart electronic modes on the XT - three selectable engine maps, traction control with three modes, lean angle-sensitive ABS with two modes, linked brakes with slope and load-dependent control and hill hold, plus cruise control.

The standard model (non XT) has many of the same electronic features, but opts for cast aluminium wheels, and loses the engine bars and handguards. 

The referenced media source is missing and needs to be re-embedded.

With the 1050 priced at £9,999, the 1050XT model is priced at £11,599, and the XT Tour is £12,799.
