General comments: The Suzuki Burgman 650 is Smooth, fast, excellent handling, excellent controls, comfortable (with seat pad), more stable than the silverwing and just an all around champion quality scooter.

I have had one sort of BMW or another over the years. By chance going by the local Suzuki dealer and being inquisitive and saw the bergman 650. got a test ride and bought it then and there. Had my baby just over two years when some woman drove straight into the back at 40mph. impact lifted the scoot up onto rear wheel and wheeled 20 metres to the car in front. hence some broken ribs and one or two other ailments. however, low centre of gravity with plenty of protection around the scoot. brill ...

i have just traded my FJR in for the An650A , i have been ridding and racing bike most of my life ,Now 64, as an engineer/ rider i have found that this is just as exiting to ride as the Yam so far i have only found two things to complain about , the first is, if you wish to use the outlet socket , say to power your SAT NAv you cannot close the compartment properly, the second and more important is that i am having trouble with the rear brake , disc getting very hot ,ie the hydraulic pot is not ...

I have only had my Suzuki Burgman 650 for 2 or 3 weeks but I am very happy with the ride and ease in getting on and off. I am a woman so I haven't tried to pick it up on my own yet but so far there have always been someone around to help me.

B-E-A-U-TIFUL!! I have just got my 2009 Burgman 650 Executive and she is simply gorgeous. The ride is so smooth and you do not realise what speed you are doing - which can be a bad thing!!! Not sure of the fuel economy at the moment as I haven't had to fill her up yet but I will find out and let you know. The ride is very comfortable and I feel very secure and almost 'cocooned' from the elements. She has a screen that you can adjust up and down, mirrors that fold away electronically, a semi ...

The Suzuki Burgman 650 leaves every thing else,just listening to the engine is a treat on itself . i own a yamaha xjr1300 ,since i bought the burgman cant look at any thing else,i enjoy every meter i ride . Suzuki have put together an unbelievable product i just cant fault it on any level ,space ,speed ,comfort reliability. people riding on the back seat feel so comfortable it makes them feel safer on the burgman. one piece of engineering.

I have a black 2008 burgman 650 executive and absolutely love it, I found out about the bike when the cycle world bike show came to phoenix in november of 2007, and while not wanting to ride my vintage pristine 2-stroke collection to work everyday I decided to try the chinese 150 & 250 scooters recently being imported at the time, I never was attracted to any scooters unless it was one of the wicked looking italian small bore 2-strokes with the wild & twisted looking exhaust systems, scooters h ...

I can't get enough of this bike. I had a Harley for many years prior to taking a ride after I came back from Rome and looking to see that it was the big scooters that went ahead of the pack at all the intersections. It intrigued me enough to try on on a demo days, and I was hooked. There is nothing in my experience that rides so efficiently. Fun to ride, is the only way to describe your experience. I had the Harley for a while, but decided to sell it when I logged all of my riding mi ...

I have 6000 mi. on my 07 Suzuki Burgman 650 and love the bike. Its good for long distance and really works well around town because of the auto transmission. Wouldn't be without it. Good ride for a small bike. Longest trip I have taken is 2000 miles and kept up with the "big boys". Don't see a need for the ability to make it a standard transmission. I think it make the tranny more noisy--at least it's more noisy than my Silverwing was.

The Suzuki Burgman 650 is a very nice ride - great braking, great acceleration, hard to beleive you are only on a 650, corners nicely. Throttling in automatic takes getting use to, wsorking on this bike requires more time than usual due to dismatling of the teflon

I have 4,000 miles on my 650 Burgman. It is a pleasant, all around, easy-to-live-with bike. The glove boxes and huge trunk make everyday commuting a snap. It starts every time and takes off quickly--even in below freezing temperatures. Handling is wonderful with plenty of ground clearance and good brakes. I replaced the stock windshield with a Clearview and, for me, having the right windshield transformed the bike! It is sooo much better now! The front seat is fine and the rear seat is wider tha ...

Smooth, ergonomically friendly controls, excellent seating comfort both driver and passenger, bright headlights. Low volume horn, for tall guys, the windshield needs to be taller, but I'll live with it. A Fantastic Scooter--"thank you Suzuki Engineers" I did a lot of research before buying this scooter, everything pointed to the Suzuki Burgman 650 Executive-- which turned out to be the most excellent choice for me...

I have owned and operated this Suzuki Burgman 650 for the second year now, After a through cleaning inside and out,oil,filters,dirt, dealers do nothing, I am very impressed. Transmission was totally rebuilt, probably because of poor maintenance, oils must be replaced often, high speed engine. Hope to ride many more years, 66 now. Ride in peace, JM

I bought a 2007 AN650 (Suzuki Burgman 650) 12/30/07 in San Diego and promptly drove it across the border on a solo 2 day, 1,000 miles trip to Cabo San Lucas. The Burgman 650 was easily able to maintain control during a 4 hour stretch of 30+mph cross winds while traveling across a long stretch of barren desert south of Rosario. The following week I drove back North to LaPaz, across Sea of Cortez via ferry to Los Mochis (to see the Copper Canyon via "el Chepe" train), and then drove from Los M ...

I've gone through the basic Burgman range of 125 and 400 over the last five years, but the AN650 AZ is something else. It's supposed to be a limited edition, although I can't quite discover in what way. It has both seats heated, heated grips, electric windshield and electric retractable mirrors, and finally ABS. For me, this is biking at its comfortable best, and although it is heavy at 265Kgs, it is an absolute dream to ride. Around the town, fuel consumption is not great, but what would you ex ...

I'm an old gal in my second childhood loving every ride on my Burgman 650. In fact, I'm planning a road trip next autumn and picture myself riding through canyons and national parks of southwest USA. I used to ride a small scooter in Australia which I loved but didn't get the Burgman until June, 20 years later, and now I'm wondering why I wasted all that time. Life is good!

I love the bike, I had been waiting to get one for along time since I drove Yamaha majesty in morocco, finally got one. I was happy the first year. second year mine started to back fire ,and sometimes you can hear it in the airbox, took it back to the dealer more than three times, and the problem still there, bought it new in 06,now we are in 08 ,I m not as happy as I should be with the Burgman anymore. Anyone has any suggestion for me, the dealer does not seem to be able to fix it, and I still ...

I'm not going to repeat the other reviews... This model has not changed much. Of all the bikes I've had, 2000 Goldwing, 95 helix, 04 Burgman 400, 07 Burgman 400... This is the best I've owned. It has the ride of a larger bike (611lbs, suspension, high speed handling, power etc) but the convenience of a smaller bike for in city use slow speed/ tight turns and does both ends very well. This cycle is in a class of its own so comparing it to other classes is difficult. Its not a sports bike, but fas ...
