    Thinking Of Buying A 650

    I just saw the 400GT again about two hours ago. It’s nice…, but I’m up for the 650. You’re right about Florida. I use to get on the country backroads in Hernando and Pasco counties, ride out a full tank, fill up, and head back out. Another nice ride was Bayport and Tampa Bay inlet roads. Can’t...

    Thinking Of Buying A 650

    I'm going to have to wait until I get to Florida in June, before I do anything. There are lots of choices (a good thing) to be had. I'd been looking into the KYMCO as well. Plenty of dealerships, and a lot of good low milage used prices then KYMCO's as well - though the Beemer is still tops on...

    Thinking Of Buying A 650

    Valkyrie!? You don't know how close I came in 2015 to buying a new one in Florida. Just a gorgeous blue monster that had been marked down because it wasn't moving, and - and love at first sight. But the wife didn't share my passion, and I got the Burg 650. Until now, I wasn't even aware of the...

    Thinking Of Buying A 650

    Greta point!! This is why I come here, which is to get the real skinny - real owners, real experience, realistic nightmares and great experiences. I took almost 6 months to buy my Burgman. By the time I went to make the deal, I knew exactly what I was getting into, from service bench costs...

    Thinking Of Buying A 650

    I'm already with ya. I tried the Suzuki 400 when I bought the 650. When the wife jumped on for a spin..., I knew right there and then that I couldn't trust the 400 to get our collective ass's out of a highway or city cluster f@#*k - and that was without a load carry/side cases. I'm too use to...

    Thinking Of Buying A 650

    Thanks for the tips and info! It's odd you mention the C 400. As I said to Delray, "I saw a new white Beemer C 400 the other day..., and couldn't take my eye's off the thing. As for style, it was head and shoulders on a 16 foot ladder above the the Burgman" - just gorgeous! I too looking and...

    Thinking Of Buying A 650

    Man..., that Beemer looks sweet! I'll look around, but I'm pretty sure where my gut's gonna take me. I saw a new white Beemer 400 the other day..., and couldn't take my eye's off the thing. It was head and shoulders on a 16 foot ladder above the the Burgman. Thanks for the input on not only the...

    Thinking Of Buying A 650

    Here's the deal. Up until we moved to Mexico, I owned a 2015 650 Burgman, and had to sell it. Since we're moving back to the states, I've been looking into a new, or low miles used BMW 650. But all I seem to hear and read are these high maintenance and poor performance horror stories, of which...
