Has anyone tried to see if the 400 backrest would fit on the 650. I ask as I do not like the backrest that is made for the 650 but much rather be able to use the 400 backrest as it has the color of the bike at the back and it's a good place to install a brake light and I like the angle better.

Look at the GIVI backrest or if you are like most of us don't spend the money as you will probably put on a topcase.

You're Right
The Givi blue topcase, E52 with brake lights and backrest, goes on tomorrow. I told the wife it was for the kid to use as a backrest, carry crap to the park, etc, but she said, "Yeah, right, and... IT LOOKS COOL!" She's not so picky since I bought her a V-Star for her birthday.

The 400 and 650 were sitting side-by-side when I bought mine. Since the backrest on the 400 follows the lines of the grabhandles, I thought it might not look so good in translation. Besides that, I'm guessing the mounting points are pretty radically different.

Attacking the Twisties in Manual Mode
Burgman 650 (2002 thru 2012)The groups with whom I ride comprise mostly motorcycles versus scooters, and the riders tend to be serious in terms of ATGATT and riding skill. Among others, I ride with MSTA members from time-to-time, and those guys are impressive, indeed. I don't expect to maintain position on my 2012 AN650...- 23
