Awhile back I asked if anyone knew if the "Executive" version of the 650
currently only available overseas might be coming to the U.S.

For those of you that are un-aware, the "Executive" has many
wonderful features Not available here in the U.S. ( Ajustable rider
backrest, Passenger backrest, Electroniclly controlled mirrors, Heated
grips, ABS brakes, etc ) You can check it out at the Global Suzuki
Website.

Anyway, my original post did not yield any definitive answers so I
decided to contact the American distributers down in Orange County
and I would now like to share my findings with everyone.

The verdict? Suzuki said "Unfortunately, at this time, we have no
plans to introduce this vehicle in the U.S." So I guess that's that.

What a Shame

Someone reported recently that a dealer told them, the Exec would be available Sept/Oct. My local dealers say they are waiting for info this month on the 2005 Burgmans.

Who are the "American distributers down in Orange County"?

Any color info on the 2005s?

Hmmm..... Interesting.

This is who I was reffering to:
American Suzuki
P.O. Box #1100
Brea,CA,92822-1100

Ph - (714) 996-7040

Now, I assummed that they know what they are talking
about. Maybe I should not make that assumption :?:

Well Roy_ryall, If you can confirm my info is wrong, by all means,
Please set the record straight!

And regarding color info, sorry, I never asked, but I think the Global
Suzuki site has the colors for the "Executive".

Hi

Of course I do not have any better information than you.

But.

'Well they would say that wouldn't they'!!

My guess is they have 650s' in stock and if people got wind they were shipping Execs in Sept/Oct, then enough prospective 650 buyers may defer and wait for the Exec. Then the distributor/dealers may have to discount to shift the stock.

I called Suzuki customer service today on another topic. While I had them on the phone I asked about the 2005s. He said the colors and models would be announced in mid-Sept and delivery would be in Jan. 05.

I hate waiting. maybe if I can hold out until January has hubby has planned I can get an 05. "if" there is a big difference.
