The bike is fueled by a 106hp, 1,037cc engine
The Suzuki V-Strom 1050 draws power from a 1,037cc, 4-stroke, liquid-cooled, 90-degree V-twin engine that generates 106hp of maximum power at 8,500rpm and 100Nm of peak torque at 6,000rpm. The mill is linked to a 6-speed gearbox.

For ensuring the rider's safety, the Suzuki V-Strom 1050 is equipped with disc brakes on both the front and rear wheels, along with lean angle-sensitive ABS, ride-by-wire, traction control, hill hold, and cruise control.
Suspension duties on the motorcycle are taken care of by 43mm inverted forks on the front side and a bottom link-type mono-shock unit on the rear end.
