AI bullsh_t, there’s lots of it about

It's a pity it's AI nonsense, but I don't think there is much chance of a real one ATM ☹

They're still plodding on with the old 400.

YouTube is full of digital renderings of the new versions of various maxi scooters, I"d read quite a few online posts from riders virtually wetting themselves with excitement over something like the new Forza, Burgman, or C400 GT, none of which were real.

Years ago there was a digital designer called Oberdan Bezzi who'd upload pics of his versions of various new motorcycles and maxi scooters and plenty thought these were genuine manufacturers models.

If its real, then this unknown source has a global exclusive!! So much pure nonsense / click bait on the internet these days, mostly AI generated. I don't mind rumours and speculation (if labelled as such) but nonsense I object to!

Maxi scooters have moved on in development since the days of the original overweight AN650 Burgman with its complicated and occasionally self-destructing transmission was in it’s day a must have large capacity maxi. It had been around for years in its original guise until it was given a facelift around 2012-2013. It Discontinued in 2015-2016 because its old Euro 3 engine couldn't meet the new Euro 4 spec.

New maxi scooters are Euro 5+ so Suzuki would have to develop a new engine to meet that spec. Who'd buy a new 650 Burgman anyway, the North American maxi scooter market is in decline as the Boomer Generation the traditional buyers of large maxi scooters, Harley Davidsons and cruisers is in decline. Boomers are hanging up their helmets for good or have tapped out.
