Suzuki has announced a suite of new colour options for its GSX-8R and V-Strom 1050RE machines, which are currently on display at MCL. The award-winning 8R will continue to be available in Suzuki’s trademark Metallic Triton Blue in 2026, but the existing grey wheels are swapped for racier black ones. A new white version joins the ranks, offset by blue decals and wheels, and a metallic matt black option sports red graphics and wheels.
The V-Strom 1050RE – the ‘road explorer’ in Suzuki’s V-Strom 1050 range, alongside the 1050DE ‘dual explorer’ – also gets a trio of new colour schemes. There’s a grey version with black and red decals and dark red wheels, and an all-black iteration. The stand-out colour joining the range for 2026 is a Matt Steel Green with matt black panels on the tank and black wheels.
The 8R and V-Strom 1050RE models are on display on the Suzuki stand at MCL, which runs until the 23 November at the NEC in Birmingham. Suzuki can be found on stand 3D25 in hall 3A.
