I use to have a 125cc burgman but felt I could do with a couple of inches extra leg room. I am now back in the market again for a scooter but was wondering if the piaggio 125cc had more leg room? Or do you know of any scooter that has more leg room than a Burgman 125cc. Has to be 125cc, I only have a cbt.
Thanks
John

Which piaggio? X9? X8? X7? I've owned both X9 & X8 variants & the leg room on both was more than adequate & I'm 6 foot.

Not too sure whether the 125 was shorter, but I had a Burgman 400 and moved to an X8 400 and if anything I remember the Burgman being more spacious legwise.
Certainly would expect the X9 to be more roomy of the two Piaggios but may not offer much more than the Burger, you need to find a friendly Muppet owner nearby for a check.

Thanks for that guys, it was the piaggio x9 that I was thinking of.

There is certainly less leg room on the Xevo/x8 400 than the Burgman 400, not sure about the 125s though I'd expect the Burgman to still have more roompoldark wrote:Not too sure whether the 125 was shorter, but I had a Burgman 400 and moved to an X8 400 and if anything I remember the Burgman being more spacious legwise.

The Burger 400 is huge in comparison. I've the 200 version (same body as 125) - the legroom is OK for me, though you probably wouldn't want to do an 8 hour journey on it....rtfm wrote: There is certainly less leg room on the Xevo/x8 400 than the Burgman 400, not sure about the 125s though I'd expect the Burgman to still have more room
