The Suzuki V-Strom 1050 is still powered by the 1,037 cc, four-stroke, liquid-cooled, 90-degree v-twin, which makes 106 bhp of maximum power at 8,500 rpm and 100 Nm peak torque at 6,000 rpm. The aluminium engine bash plate not only offers more protection from rocks, and other obstacles on unpaved terrain, but also provides a particularly strong protective cover to the engine, particularly the low position of the front cylinder and oil filter, as well as the exhaust system.
