2006 Suzuki Burgman 650 review from United States of America
"Cavalcade scooter"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
None.
General comments?
Seat tends to push you forward. I removed the backrest and installed a large sheepskin. This made the seat usable for me and the wife. Looking for a new seat.
Fuel economy meter is a joke. It only goes to 50mpg. I have never gotten under 55mpg.
Wife and I have taken 250 mile day trips with no problems other than the seat.
I replaced the windshield with a taller and wider one.
Love the transmission, I tell people that it is always in the right gear. We ride in West Virginia mountains most of the time.
