I hope they have one at the NEC to test ride (though if I can only try one scoot I'd rather try the BMW)
Hopefully this will give Honda a kick in the ass to update the Silverwing too.

Re: The 2013 Burgman
A few videos are now appearing on-line.
It really hasn't changed that much for me to say "I want one".

Re: The 2013 Burgman
The new 650 Burgie also has new clutch plates to reduce friction when being wheeled around with the engine off, and a new lighter (by 50%) ABS pump.
Probably not ugly enough for the 'Ugly Bunch'!

A 50% lighter ABS pump!! 
That'll cure the Burger's weight problem in fell swoop!!!-

Re: The 2013 Burgman
It took a while but I have just noticed what the main difference is between the 2012 and 2013 models.

Re: The 2013 Burgman
There are some more pictures of it on Visordown.

The picture of the dash caught my attention. It still has the existing controls for the Auto box, which I didn't find very ergonomic, and it still has the heated grips control (or at least I assume thats what it is) lashed under the handlebar like an afterthought!!
