Just bought one, after selling my Honda pan European ST1100 last year after 20 years of ownership due to shoulder problem, weight of the bike etc, I'm impressed with the the whole package, speed, seat height, handling, manouverability, agility, comfort and as an added bonus I can actually plant both feet on the floor and easily pedal backwards th park it up 😉
This is a an early version of the Burgman 400. I have a 2009 version of the 650 Executive. My advice is to forget any bike v scooter thing and judge this machine on its merits. I own a Kawasaki Voyage 1700 as well and I enjoy riding both. One thing is clear from the development of maxi scooters, you don't buy one to get into food delivery. It could certainly do that but it is a large bike for such a purpose. The maxi scooter is meant to be used for touring and getting out on the open roads and back roads. The 400 seems well equipped although I would assume there have been some improvements since 2001. The 650 is a better bike for the open road because it has a more powerful engine and thus a bit more grunt. Scooters have CVT which means twist and go - there is no clutch. The 650 has a manual mode for those who like to be in control and there is also a power button for extra revs when in auto mode. The 400 seems to have a good screen but the 650 has an electrically adjustable one giving better air flow at lower speed whilst keeping the wind off at higher speed. I assume the 400 has ABS as does the 650. I would hope that by 2019 Suzuki have added a few mod cons including traction control and cruise control. Both of these would be great even on the 400. They wold make a long day riding even better. I think the 400 would be a starter bike for someone who wants to get into big scooters and start touring.
Fantastic bikes, top brakes, handle well, clever practical design, 80 mph cruising all day, go a lot quicker than they feel.....this coming from someone who owns 600 and 750 gsx-r!
I bought one this weekend. I drive Yamaha Venture 1300TD, Honda VF700c, Suzuki GS850G, Yamaha FZR1000 and others. This thing is amazing!
A great review even after all these years. Scooters are just so practical with their storage space, comfort and economy. Burger 400 is still one of the best.
2024 and my 2000 burgman still goes perfectly smooth with 70000km +. They re the best
5:18 This bike is still MOTed and roadworthy in 2022!
Not special
My 2000 Suzuki skywave 400 still running in good condition, already running 100,000km, it's a good scooter made from Japan.
simon leung im here cos i just got given one with blown engine i just wanted to know whay its lke cant wait to fix it
Helo.sir.im shabbir from india.im fond of this type of scooters but these all are high standard peoples.
I just wish to ask that hope u still owe this scooter even after 5 yrs
I have had 2 Burgys. The 400 and 250 They have a chopper riding style, u just lean back, an very comfortable.
I put a GIVI E450N top box on the 400.
I love scooters! in America all my friends make fun of me for not being a man and. driving a Harley. I love not shifting and having my knees together
I never, ever see anyone in my area of the US on a scooter. On average, I see only 5 or 6 motorcycles on my 55 mile daily commute through the ‘burbs. They don’t do public transportation either. Everyone has a car.
They're not your friends if they feel the need to make fun of you for not having a Harley. And if they think you're not being a man, ask them if they're such men why they don't ride their Harleys every single time they go out? Not just on weekends but commuting to work, short trips to the store, etc.
I don't understand the whole bike vs scooter thing. They both have two wheels and an engine. They're just a type of motorcycle
Man it's like a normal car vs mini car, people very often guess those mini-cars are not a car and it's drivers are not as good as they.
sory for my bad english ^)
Lots of bikers have fragile egos. They use their bikes to compenstate for their small penises.
@@gerbatt4093 LOL
That's cuz you're not snob enough. ;o)
I totally agree Nathan. I have had an Adiva 250 (the one with a roof an wipers) a Burgman 400, a Burgman 250 an my last bike was a Piaggio X9 500. Took it to France, then flew to Italy, for EICMA bike show in Milan, in 2006.
I have an older Burgman 250cc from 2002 - is it possible to turn off the clock completely? I have this feeling it's slowly draining the battery when I'm not riding the scooter since it's turned on at all times.
Hahaha the last 5 seconds were epic 😂
I've had several 400cc scooters to include the 07 & 09 Burgman 400 and an 07 Yamaha majesty. What I've noticed across the board with all three of them is that although they will get to 70 and sometimes a little over. It's not something you'd want to do for an extended period. I have had the 07 burgman to 78 while passing but it wasn't stable at that speed and wasn't much if any throttle left. The 09 and the majesty aren't any better as far as top end, they all seem to like to hover around the 60MPH range, as for touring I wouldn't say that you could run from say NC to MD at 70 before having problems. The scoots are great around town, but as far as what I've experienced although they do have highway capability I would say that you wouldn't want to go on a major interstate with a 70MPH speed limit for very long
1969jmac sorry but I don't agree , my burg has been used for long distances at 70 plus on the motorway and no problems what so ever .It is reving a little high but the engine is well within its limits at 70 and as for stability problems at 78 I have run it at 95 indicated on the motorway with no problems at all admittedly that is flat out ! but not bad with a high screen and top box. mine has now passed 36k miles and is used everyday come rain or shine .
I have a 2013 Suzuki burgman 400 after 5000 miles it started burning oil they say that's an issue with some of the burgman Does anybody else have that problem??
I have the same model great motorcycle the only problem is to lower to ground the wheels showld be a little biger, for an old engine its great if u do some modifications it will go better
To give viewers some perspective, how tall are you ? Thanks
Well, I'm 6' an I find them comfortable, even riding 2 up...
I made the switch to maxi scoots a few years ago, I now have a burgman and a xmax, I wouldn’t go back to bikes,
The Burgman of Alcatraz
still got mine in 2018
I've still got mine in 2019 and I previously had a triumph speed triple 995i the Suzuki is just much more of a laugh love it.... Mind you no other bikers wave or flash lights at you!!!!
Still got mine in 2022!!!
I just bought one from 2001 here in Spain, but I have to say that there are some differences between my model and this one. I can put 2 big helmets sidewais inside the boot and still have some more space, its like double as this one because I just lift the seat, not the grey part with it. The handbrake is also different on mine, and the holder for the back of the passenger. I really like this machine very much after riding bikes like gs 500, bmw k75, suzuki gsx 600 f. I am getting old I guess.
As soon as I get my income tax refund I’m going to get myself a 650 Burgman. I’ve been watching all kinds of videos to learn about them. I’m 6’2” and weigh 260, that’s why I believe the 650 would be better for me than the 400.
Where did you get the chrome back rack.?
love em'!
Thank you, most interesting, I am thinking of buying something like this ride, as Marianna. I need something big enough not to feel cramped on, being, kind of a tall girl. This review has given me food for thought as I'll likely end up with one of about this age. Yes not exactly men and motors I know, kind of depends on how you look at it, but I just can't 'do' cars.
I have a Yamaha majesty 400 and I love it
@@garyteague4480 They seem quite nice too, but guess what I went and bought a 70's CB450 and an 80s XS650 instead. Scooter plan out of the window, for now.
@@alwaysmanandwoman The CB450 is / was an excellent decent performance commuter bike. Honda reliability / durability and pretty frugal fuel consumption too!
@@phils4634 Thank you for the comment Phil. Honda did a later three valve head 450 as well, mine is the earlier two valve twin with torsion bar valve springs. When brought out in the 60's it was Hondas biggest bike thus far, by the time mine was made it was kind of in the shade of the CB750 and 500/4/ But I do prefer singles and twins.
@@alwaysmanandwoman I used to own one! Rickman Polaris fairing and Krauser Star panniers - made it really practical (with good frontal weather protection), and even with all that on board, she could still cruise at 70mph effortlessly. My longest single trip was from Plymouth (UK) to Newcastle - did that in the one day (with breaks of course), and she did it with no problems at all! A bike in the same durability league as their rightly-famous CX500 (the "Courier Special"), also available as a far more potent 650 turbo version - which I STILL see occasionally on the road!
Hi Wll,just a wee vid to see the 400cc in a little action.let us know what you think!
I hate Scooters but I bought one because of this video
can you drive the scooter with a class m1 or m2?
Helo,is their any giveaway of this burgmen?
Estas son las mejores modelos q salieron al mercado . Y no como los modelos de ahora. Y me refiero a toda las diferentes cilindrada de la suzuki bugman . Yo tengo la 125 con 15 años 39.000 kilómetros y va de maravilla. La tengo muy cuidada y mimada . Y también tengo coche por lo que voy alternando según mis necesidades. 👍👍👍👍👍🇪🇸🇪🇸
Bueno, tampoco es algo tan especial. Yo tengo la Honda Fes S-wing 125cc y tiene ahora 70.000 kms. No ha dado un solo fallo aún, aun a pesar de que yo no la mimo sino que abuso bastante de ella y, como sabes, el tiempo aquí es 40 veces peor que en España (soy de Sevilla, pero vivo en Liverpool).
He visto este vídeo porque estoy pensando en ir mirando alguna más grande.
I've had 3 400 burgs and in the earliest ones were the best as they only weighed 175kg. The later ones grew to over 200kg still with the same 62 litre underseat capacity and 32 horsepower which is limited by the A2 licence. They're great but absolutely horrible to work on.
Wow u must b a most richest men to owe this type of scooters.
Good god always keeps u rich n healthy and enjoy the life.
After 6yrs suzuki brought burgmen in india with only 125cc engine.
Boa noite Suzuki Burgman 250 G s ano 2006 se tiver se tiver uma pessoa para me ajudar comprar kit de piston 050 mm aonde eu encontro ou a loja alguém pode me ajudar obrigado
what is the mpg on this?
50+ mpg. Depending how you ride.
I had the 2005 Burgman 400 and it got 70 M.P.G. on the Highway.
Giá bao nhiêu
Linked brake sucks
+Jesus Palacios (JPdrums) agree 1000%
Only without ABS. With ABS it is quite nice. And all of the new burgers have ABS.
Lol 400? We have 650's
And a small penis? 😂
