Suzuki Burgman 2014 line up

Post by bornagainbiker »

Looks like Suzuki have now Introduced the 'standard' 400 with ABS alongside the limited edition 400Z ABS. As usual price has risen.
They have also re introduced the 125 with a similar 650 front indicator look. Wonder why the 400 was not similarly facelifted?
Also a new Promotion of £750 from 1st May towards the 650.

The 400 is due for replacement very soon so I suspect a facelift is not on the cards. I was led to believe that a new 400 was being announced in October of this year but that could still be a bit premature. All the mags said 2013 for the six fiddy and 2014 for the 400. Lets see!
Probably not ugly enough for the 'Ugly Bunch'! :lol:

The 2014 Suzuki Burgman 125 in my local dealership. £3500 and no ABS.

If that 125 was a 200 and had ABS for £3500 it would be a nice little scooter....

Looks like they have dropped the 200 then. Not surprising. 200 is a bit of an odd size, and with 300s costing just a bit more...
Getting a little impatient to see what the new 400 is going to be like. Will they stick with the single cylinder or will they go for a twin like the 650? Will the styling match the 650 more? We will have to wait and see.

Pity they dropped the 200, leaves a too big a gap between the 125 and 400 in Suzukis UK scooter line-up imo.
Last year if there was a Burgman 200 with ABS in white for circa four grand available in the UK I probably would have bought one instead of the Forza.
Will Suzuki stick with the large body/tourer idea or go for the lean angular sporty idea for the new 400...?

Well it is old but actually, I think it's still a fresh design and it more than matches the competition for performance, handling and economy. Great fun to ride and with a really well proven reliability record for covering huge mileages without issues. That's why there is a premium on price. It is a good quality machine overall. But it's like everything. We don't all like the same things. :o

I've just seen the new 125 Burgman in my local dealers.
What a lard arse!
It seems like the bike following the UK fashion for wobbling down the high st.
I hope the up coming 400 is not going down the same route.

ALL the competition has moved-on from the old TOURER design. :roll: SYM MaxSym400i, KYMCO Xciting400i, Yamaha Xmax400, Piaggio X350 and I guess the new Peugeot 400 are ALL sportier, lighter and have bigger wheels (except for the X350 and Xmax rears...). 8-)

The only OTHER antique 400 design was the Majesty 400, discontinued by Yamaha.

Time marches on! (Except for in Suzukiland...) :lol:
