Happy anniversary to my Burgman

It was 1 year today when i picked up my new Burgman 650. It is my 1st scooter and after 3300 miles it is the best bike i have ever had, mind you it could be an age thing? It is so easy and comfortable to ride and love the twist and go method? When i rode with friends on a geared bike i would come back shattered after changing gear many 100s of times or it could have been 1000s, now after the ride I'm so relaxed and calm that i can watch the Tv without falling asleep. The storage is great to stuff all my gear in and walk about like a 'normal' person. Can not wait to get it out for another years riding.

Glad you are enjoying it. Perhaps you can play with the semi-auto gearbox option every now and again, for old time's sake!!

Glad you love it Bornagain. They are a nice machine. But can you really call yourself....'normal'!! :lol: ;) I hardly think so. Anyone like us lot on here could never be described as 'normal'. Just look at the banter that goes on, and look at my ridiculous posts!! I ain't normal for sure...with me 'leakproof wind' and 'dirt repellant paint'. :o :lol: I think I know what you mean though. Good on yer!

Normal???? Us??? :lol:
However, it is occasionally useful to disguise ourselves when going amongst non-scooter owning 'people'.

Bornagain, A very good summary of Maxi Scoot, I enjoyed owning mine for 3 years and 12000 totally trouble free miles.
