I bought the Burgman with 10,300 miles on it on June 4th. I now have 12,700 miles on it on July 27th. I love this scooter! It is fast, it is steady, it is reliable, and is pretty comfortable. I already had a GIVI windshield on it but tried the stock windshield with a laminar lip, I still got beat up a bit. This is truly the king of the scooters. I have changed the buttrest to become a backrest. It gives you about 3 more inches of leg room and gives good back support. Overall I'm getting 50 mpg in town for most of it. Gone a few short trips, 200, 300, & 110 miles. wasn't worn out too bad on any. The 650 does ride a bit rough, a little unforgiving on bigger road bumps. A Corbin seat might be nice, although you lose storage space under the seat.
