2026 Suzuki year code: M6

Suzuki updated the M6 V-Strom 250 in Japan in July 2026. The new model had now a full LED headlight. There’s also a revised ABS control unit, some new paint, and a slightly higher price. The new round LED unit doesn’t reinvent the bike, but it does make the front end look less a bit more modern. The mechanical package remains virtually unchanged. Its 248cc parallel-twin produces 24 horsepower and 23 Nm of torque, sent through a six-speed transmission. It still rolls on 17-inch cast wheels, carries a large 17 liter (4.5 gallon) fuel tank, and weighs about 191 kg (421 pounds) ready to ride. 2026 Suzuki V-Strom 250 colors: Pearl Nebular Black / Solid Dazzling Cool Yellow (BJE), Metallic Diamond Red / Pearl Nebular Black (BKJ), Matte Flash Black Metallic / Pearl Nebula Black (CKN), Pearl Nebular Black / Pearl Glacier White No. 2 (CLZ)
