I would love someone to post how to tell the difference between the different years of Burgmans. I know my friend's 06 had different shaped side reflectors than my 07. Then now I notice my 08 has no side reflectors. So how can one tell by looking?
08s did come with side reflectors. They probably just didn't install them when the dealer did the dealer assembly. Either that or if you bought it used someone removed them somewhere down the line. They looked just like the ones on the 07. How do I know this. Robin's 08 has the original reflectors on it and they look just like the ones on my 07.
The reflectors (required on the US models) are the same on my '03, '05, '06, and '09. The '03-'04 had amber light housings front/rear for the turn signals and '05-up have clear ones with amber bulbs. Also the '03-'04 have a black nose panel and I think the '05-up have a body color one unless someone installed the accessory chrome one. I in the '04-up was when they added the little black water deflector on the lower left floorboard panel.
2008 do have OEM red side reflector, someone remove them or loss them.
Me use set Nelson-Rigg Cl-850 saddle bag, remove reflector from side and place them each side of licence plate so saddle bag fit flush with bike side panel.
