Suzuki V-Strom Academy: registrations open for the 2022 edition

The fifth edition of the Suzuki V-Strom Academy takes shape with the opening of registrations for enthusiasts who wish to learn or refine their off-road riding technique, riding the twin-cylinder models in the range Sports Enduro Tourer of the Suzuki brand.

Expected six dates three weekends long between April and June, each with one course held on Saturday and the other on Sunday. Eight places are available in each appointment.
The scheduled dates are:

– 9 and 10 April

How can you sign up

Interested parties can connect to the official website of the initiative and select the date indicated in the calendar, following the guided procedure. From today it is possible to connect to the section of the site Suzuki V-Strom Academy and reserve a seat. Once the booking is completed, you will receive a confirmation email and will then be contacted by the Academy staff to define the details and payment methods. The price of the course is 330 euros (VAT included), including lunch.

To attend the course you must present a certificate issued by your GP which allows you to practice a non-competitive sporting activity and, based on current regulations, also the strengthened Green Pass.
Adequate technical clothing is also necessary, not necessarily specialist off-road clothing, but you must have a helmet, gloves, jacket and trousers with the appropriate protections, a back protector and boots. A clawed sole is recommended.

You can reach the Suzuki V-Strom Academy at Castello di Luzzano located in Rovescala, in the province of Pavia. Various examples of Suzuki V-Strom 650 XT and V-Strom 1050 XT equipped with knobby Anlas Capra

The V-Strom Academy courses

Once registered and after the welcome, we start with a briefing focused on the technical characteristics of the models. We continue with a first part dedicated to theory in which some riding techniques and the right position in the saddle are underlined. So we move on to practice with two distinct phases, between which there is a lunch break at the Castle.

In the morning some exercises are carried out in a limited area with different levels of difficulty. The program is designed both for those who are new to the activity and for the more experienced. In the afternoon, however, an off-road route is carried out which allows you to put into practice what you have learned, following the advice of the instructors.
