  • Awesome machine
    By  (I am an Owner) on Jan 13, 2012

    I have owned an 08 Burgman for over a year now. It has completely changed my outlook commuting to and from work. It is powerful, responsive, and simply a joy to ride. Maintenance is minimal and mileage is great. Backpack fits under the seat while I ride and 2 fullface helmets store there when ...

  • First Maxi-Scoot
    By  (I am an Owner) on Oct 30, 2009

    After all types of MC's and even a Vespa steel body over the last 34 years, I bought my 400 simply because it seemed like the best tool for the job of commuting in my area of South Florida. I bought sight unseen from a dealer in who had the phenomenally low price of 4798.00 for a left-over.

    I ...

    Im sure if people would not be so self conscious about the stigma of riding an "Old Man Scooter", people would be buying these in huge numbers !

    Try one........Bring your cheque book !

  • Not Your Average Scooter
    By  (I am an Owner) on May 14, 2009

    I just purchased my B-Man Scooter last week. The handling is awesome and you cannot beat the storage space at all! If you Google "Suzuki Burgman" you can find plenty of accessories that are approved by Suzuki. I found a small windshield that gives the front an even sleeker look! I can't wait ...

    Well, we have a Burgman AN400, and it is relly fun to ride. My wife bought it last year and I have been the master of this puppy. I have left my Honda Shadow11 wanting. It has also overshadowed my GS500F except for gas tank size and range. Even riding my two motorcycles I have managed to put 400 ...

    I plan to go to a wedding in San Antonio Texas, from south of Richmond Virginia and with the price of gas and the comfort level, she is my weapon of choice. Iron Butt material! It is an awesome machine, buy a brace of them! I get upwards of 60 MPG!

  • Overall the Suzuki Burgman 400 is very comfortable and affordable
    By  (I am an Owner) on Sep 30, 2008

    The Suzuki Burgman 400 is very comfortable and affordable to ride. We now have 1000 miles on our 2008 Burgman 400 and have had no issues, and average 57 MPG. The ride and performance is excellent. I do avoid the expressways, but large 5-lane roads are not an issue.

    The OEM options ...
