Burgman spotting
« on: June 08, 2020, 12:45:12 PM »
Saw two Burgman 400's while on my Piaggio.
That's akin to seeing a unicorn around here, in rural Ohio.
One was a female with the 2 added side tires - the other rode into my coffee village and parked up the street.
I waved to both from my Liberty - but I must have caught them mid-blink - because only a lady in a Prius acknowledged my wave. They were both the lovely dead-mouse matte grey.



Soy beans....

"dead-mouse grey" Is a fitting description of my car color. A claimed glacier silver.

How is the handling of the larger wheeled scoot?

As I've noted several times in various posts - the ride and stability at speed is superb. I find myself riding 5mph faster when in my comfortable rural cruising....compared to the 12" Like200i wheels.
It's nothing to do with the engine...rather the physics of the wheels.
