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 from 15-23 November at the NEC in Birmingham.
Suzuki can be found on stand 3D25 in hall 3A. MCL tickets can be purchased here
