Burger 400 inbound

Post by mdk1 »

Well some of you may know me, but I’m back!
After what seems like a long time, thinking about getting another scoot, I decided now was the time, so last weekend as a wedding anniversary gift my wife kitted me out with new Helmet, jacket and some Hood jeans.
So what to get, narrowed it down to the possibles, Honda Integra 700, Forzza 300 and a burger 400.
Booked appointments today to view all 3, typically they all were about 100 miles away.
1st went to check the NC 700, 10 year old with 7000 miles and good history. Was my top choice, however, I couldn’t get on it, I have 3 bulging discs in my back, and couldn’t get my leg over! So it’s a step through for me.
Burger and Forzza were both at the same dealer, both just about to turn 4 years old and same price.
After talking a bit I decided the Burger was for me, having had a Forzza 300 before, it just felt a little underpowered as agreed by the sale guy, that’s why the 350 was bought in.
So after a quick 10 minute ride, a deal was done, and I have a 2.5hr train ride next Friday to pick it up.
2020/70 Burger 400 with just under 10,000 miles FSH 2 owners.

Mike, I've had a 2009 K9 Burgman before, and soon I will be getting a newer one. My NC750x after 2021 has a lower seat hight and many improvements making a great sorted bike.
Hopefully I will see you on it soon, It is the most sorted scooter IMHO.

Early train this morning, then a delayed train followed by a 35 min bus ride and I arrived at the Dealers in Milton Keynes.
Coffee chat and paperwork sorted and balance paid, 1st stop was to fill up with petrol and plot a route home, decided against straight down the M1 and M25 and instead found a cross country route, with some flowing A and B roads,
What a pleasant ride, about 3.5 hours of pure joy, only bad traffic was over the Dartford crossing.
Now safely home and tucked up in the garage.

Excellent. Glad you got. They are an excellent bike.
Probably not ugly enough for the 'Ugly Bunch'! :lol:

Been riding for 55 years & owned too many bikes to list here...
