This is our first BS 6-compliant big bike and we are confident that this cleaner and greener motorcycle will continue to win people's hearts with its performance and maneuverability as it hit the Indian roads," said Koichiro Hirao, Managing Director, Suzuki Motorcycle India.

The middleweight adventure bike comes with a push button start and anti-lock braking system, offering a controlled grip on the road and trustworthy braking performance in extreme conditions, according to the release.

The BS 6-compliant V-Strom 650 XT ABS will be available at all Suzuki big bikes dealerships across India, it added.
