As of this morning 10-2-09, some of the 2010 Suzuki's are posted on their site but Im wondering if the info is right at least as far as the pricing goes.

Do you see the "CA" in the Suzuki site address there?  Means "Canada".  Wink

 Baaa  Thanks for pointing that out!  I missed that as well.  I was thinking "Jesus, the US dollar must really be tanking!  Crazy"

I hope they make the 2010 Wee Strom in white.  They've done every other zany color out there: silver/blue, yellow, orange.  I think it would awesome in a pearl white, like the Tiger 1050 and Speed Triple.  Or the '93 VFR750.  

And they should REALLY make the ABS version in some other color than graphite gray.  Seems to me that if you care enough about safety to spring for the ABS, you'd want a more hi-viz color.

Hell, it would be kinda cool if they made the whole bike hi-viz yellow, now that I think about it.  You don't buy a V-Strom for it's looks! Bigsmile  Might as well burn the image of your ugly bike into people's retinas!  Twofinger

Does any manufacturer offer a bike in eye-sizz yellow yet?

And when are they going to update the V-Strom?  It really hasn't changed since 2002.  

When they do change it, are they going to make it similar to the Gladius?  Probably, I think.  It'll probably have an aluminum/steel frame like the Gladius.  

If it's as narrow in the middle as the Gladius, that would be a plus.  That's one thing I don't really dig about my Strom... why is a V-Twin so thick in the middle like that?

Triumph offered the Sprint RS in "Acidic Yellow" in 2002. That was a really bright yellow. I think that color made it to a Daytona 955i at some point as well.

Then they really have some problems with whomever is trying to launch their 2010 webisite because it came from here. http://www.suzukicycles.com/Product%20Lines/Cycles.aspx and there is no ca in that. Its also been taken off so someone must have caught the mistake.

Yeah the US site seemed to link to the Canada site there for awhile.  Must be some web mistress not paying attention.  

And the bike you linked was an 09 V-strom touring model, btw.  The Canada site - http://moto.suzuki.ca/Product%20Lines/Cycles.aspx?year=2010 - only lists the 2010 dirt bikes for now.  Someone had a rumor going that Suzuki was only going to make 2010 dirt bikes, and not any street bikes, but I have no idea if that is true.

'09 BMW G650Xcountry.  That yellow is pretty bright when you see it in person.

They done it again Saturday night. They had a tab up for 2010 but when you click on the bikes under that tab it ges to the Canadian Suzuki site again.

Somehow this does not surprise me with all the Suzuki telemetry problems I have had lately

Looks nice but:

Yet, so far, these models are for Europe only, with Suzuki officials awaiting word on whether the new 1250s will be American bound.
