It’s been a busy first year for Upshift and our global motorcycle adventure contributors. We’d like to celebrate by sharing images from our own Simon Cudby and the people who have battled the elements to give you a glimpse into their travels. Thank you to everyone who has been involved from the start. We can’t wait to see what our second year has in store.

The all-new 2018 Suzuki V-Strom 1000. Destination: everywhere. For high-mile adventure touring, you need a high-tech adventure bike. One with advanced 3-mode traction control that lets you adjust to any riding surface, from tarmac to rough terrain. A first-in-its-class three-axis, five-direction Inertia Measurement Unit that feeds data to the new Motion Track ABS and Combined Braking System for predictable, optimal braking, even while cornering. And a powerful, fuel-injected 1000cc 90-degree V-Twin engine perfect for crossing a stream or the country. The V-Strom 1000: the comfortable-yet-capable ride you need to tackle anything. And experience everything.

Traction Control cannot prevent loss of traction due to excessive speed when the rider enters a turn and/or applies the brakes. Neither can it prevent the front wheel from losing grip. ABS is not designed to shorten the braking distance. Please always ride at a safe speed for road and weather conditions, including while cornering.

Four V-Strom models. Infinite journeys. See the full lineup at SuzukiCycles.com
