Staff Reporter : Kolkata, 10th April 2026: Suzuki Motorcycle India Pvt. Ltd. (SMIPL), the two-wheeler subsidiary of Suzuki Motor Corporation, Japan, successfully conducted the V-Strom SX Experience Day in Kolkata, West Bengal.
The one-day event, held at Motorcycle Training Ranch, Jayapura, Kolkata brought together over 160 motorcycle enthusiasts, offering them an exclusive opportunity to experience the V-Strom SX on a specially designed urban enduro track. The setup featured several distinct terrains and unpaved roads designed to showcase the motorcycle’s real-world capability.
Speaking about the initiative, Mr. Deepak Mutreja, Vice-President, Sales & Marketing, Suzuki Motorcycle India said, “The V-Strom Experience Day allows us to create a more meaningful connection with our customers. Many riders want to understand how the V-Strom SX performs beyond city roads, and this platform gives them firsthand exposure to its crossover DNA. We are delighted with the enthusiastic response in Kolkata and look forward to engaging with more customers across India.”
About the V-Strom Experience Day
The V-Strom Experience Day is part of SMIPL’s nationwide program designed to help riders explore the V-Strom SX’s adventure-tourer and crossover capabilities. The Kolkata track enabled participants to experience the motorcycle’s handling, comfort, stability, and suspension performance in conditions that go beyond a standard city test ride.
Riders navigated through multiple challenge sections, including a rumble strip, tyre pit, drum pit, gravel pro zone, and sand pit. Each segment demonstrated the V-Strom SX’s balance, control, low speed handling and confidence on uneven terrain.
Further enhancing the experience, participants also interacted with V-Strom SX owners and motorcycle experts, who shared practical insights and touring experiences. Their insights and real-world stories helped participants learn more about the motorcycle’s performance and touring potential. Ensuring a complete engagement experience, participants also received giveaways and exclusive on-the-spot booking offers were made available for interested customers.
One of the riders who experienced the motorcycle at the event said, “Riding the V-Strom SX was a very satisfying experience. The throttle response, suspension setup, and clutch action are all excellent, delivering smooth and confident performance. It easily stands out as one of the best value‑for‑money motorcycles in the 250cc segment currently available in India. The bike absorbs road bumps and jerks effectively, ensuring a comfortable ride, while the ground clearance is well‑suited for an adventure motorcycle. Overall, it is highly recommended.”
Explore More Beyond the Event
To keep the excitement going beyond the event, adventure enthusiasts in Kolkata can visit their nearest Suzuki dealership, take a test ride and become part of the growing V-Strom SX fan club. The test ride option is also available for long rides allowing customers to explore its capabilities first hand.
