I also had a burning smell and occasionally a little smoke from under the seat. I also had to have the water pump replaced due to seal failure.

I owned a 2007 Burgman Executive. Here is what the big problem was for me. At 24K miles I had the clutch bearing fail. I was under extended warranty so the cost was $0. If not the repair bill would have been $3,000. At 37,000 miles I started hearing bearing noises again. An expensive bike...

Very smooth. My max speed has been 98.4 (ran out of road). I had a Burgman Ex and will say it was also smooth at high speeds. Agree fully with vazbro regarding suspension and handling

My grip heater button stuck and needed to be replaced. The button assembly includes the kill switch. Since it has been replaced (done during 6K mile service) I have not had a single stall in the last 1500 miles. Al along I thought it was the kill switch. I really don't know but maybe I was...

I had many people ask me what was wrong with my Burgman when idling. It sounded like a 5KW diesel generator. To me the 650 GT sounds like a parallel twin should sound

I still don't like the Burgman ECVT tranny. Mine was shot at 37K miles

Yes (10 characters required to post so here they are)

I'm wondering if anybody has installed bar risers. I think that one inch up would set me up just right. Anyone know if the GT650 bars are 7/8"? Any opinions or info appreciated I'm thinking of the Gen Mar risers. BMW

Oh I've been there! Get involved in a project and forget to document and take photos. I wouldn't take it back apart either! Thanks!

That is uber sharp looking! Nice color choice and a nice job by your painter!

I haven't lost any. Picked up with 4 miles on Mach 13, 2013, 1st service at 600 miles and DIY oil and filter change at 3,700 miles, now at 4,600 miles. I broke in using the easy on it method like Bill. Also like Bill...after that 600 I have been riding it fairly hard. At the 3,700 mile...

I have the BMW box and I am very happy with it...but it is expensive. Shad makes the box for BMW and I would put their quality on par with Givi's boxes...very high. If you like the box you have I would suggest sticking with it!

After reading the WBW review I decided to order. I went to Kaoko's site and had to select "not listed" > I got a pretty quick response from them diredting me to Twisted Throttle and I gave them a call. They expected delivery in 6 to 8 weeks. That was fine with me as it was a new product from...

That argument doesn't hold up for me. My 07 Burgman Ex was recalled for unexpected acceleration issues, that model had been around for awhile. My 03 Toyota Tundra was recalled for ball joints...that model had also been out for a few years..I was lucky that I already had about 60K on them. My...
