A 2007-08 DL650 V-Strom listed under the 'X' name, with the same engine and chassis as the standard model of those years. The reviewer describes it as a versatile all-rounder for mostly paved roads with occasional dirt, praising the V-twin, highway comfort and fuel range. Weaknesses noted were a small seat, the weight, and limited suspension travel compared with dedicated off-road bikes.
