It is about a month and a half since I have gotten my Burgman 650 and I have put 3000 kms on it.
In that time I have discussed its design with a Harley driver who has over 400,000 kms on a 98 and a Suzuki GSX-1000 driver who has 8000kms on his 2000.
In both cases the expressed opinions and amazement about how good the Burgman was.
The Harley driver could not figure out why they weren't selling more and the GSX driver had this longing look in his eyes!
The GSX driver is my neighbour and our wives were comparing what they get to ride on AND hang on to and my wife was amazed and happy with what she gets in comparison with the postage stamp seat for the passenger GSX seat. She still wants a back rest and may end up with her own bike.
It is interesting and if the world gets over the feet forward or 'scooter' idea there could be whole lot of people driving around with **** eating grins on their faces (sorry for my French)!
