Hi All,
I live in Milton Keynes, UK. I have had my silver Burgman 650 Exec for about 6 months now. Only black Execs are available in the UK and I really don't like black so I bought my silver Exec as a Euro import - from the stickers I think it came from Italy. I changed the stock screen for the Clearview GT Large - first in the UK I believe - it makes a big difference. I use the machine for the commute run up to my work in London - a 60 mile trip each way straight down the M1 motorway & then across London. Currently at 9,000 miles on the odo & rising fast. Zero problems so far, still on the original tyres but will need to change the rear in a week or two. The burger works well both on the motorway cruising at 80 mph and filtering through the city. I'm embarrassed pulling away at traffic lights since I leave the sports guys behind still tangled up in their gears. They get a bit p.o. by this & think it's a race - look you guys, I'm not even trying, I'm just an old git pootling along on his scooter mainly concerend with spotting the speed cameras before they spot me. Many thanks to all on this forum - I've found it by far the best source for solid info & entertainment.
Cheers, Robg.
