fine scooter
I liked best the great headlights and the comfy seat w/ movable butt rest!

Suzuki does seem to keep old models around for a long time...but nothing wrong with that!  It usually means better parts supplies in the long run.

I also assumed the 400cc Burgman was a twin cylinder, not a thumper.

It's a single. DOHC.
Very smooth.  I only changed one NGK....did I miss one?!
I had the feeling that thing would run for decades with only tires, belt and oil changes.
Suzuki got this one right - as did Kymco with my LIKE200I

One cylinder 385CC. Even the 650 is only 638CC. Manufactures do that.

Yes, the Kymco 200's come to mind (163cc)!

My new '69 HONDA CB350 had 325.6cc's
My 2018 Piaggio LIBERTY 3V 150i .....has 155cc's.

My 2014 Burgman 400 is listed many places as having a 400cc engine. ?
Whatever - it hauled me and the 489lb scoot around just fine ....88MPH with a drop of 1,000rpm using the Dr Pulleys.
