Shoot - looking at another Burgman>!
« on: October 04, 2026, 08:16:48 PM »


Sold my 2014, fairly new at the time - @5,500 miles. Bought a 155cc Piaggio Liberty.
Just happened to come across this Burgman, 27 miles distant. Private seller. Asking questions.
Asking $2,300 - but has been on the market a while - winter coming. Might get it for less, cash in hand.
These things outlive most rider's interest in scooter riding. With oil changes, 40K to 100K miles w/o even a valve check.

I'm still browsing for first choice of another Honda Forza.....
So. But this is a handsome bike - especially after I removed the top case and go to a smaller sport screen. These stock tall screens will beat up a tall guy!!

Thoughts?

And, I'm feeling a little peculiar.

Interesting! Well, you already are familiar with the Burgman so there will be no surprises for you as far as ride and handling go. 400cc will certainly move you along a little easier and the ride must be softer with the extra weight and long wheelbase.

This is a good time of year to buy with cool weather approaching. Big question - if you bought this what other bike (or bikes??) would you give up?
