Suzuki shows new colours at MCL

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.
