Suzuki is giving its Burgman 650 maxi-scooter a comprehensive update for 2013.
Although at first sight it might be hard to spot the differences, the new version has a slimmer rear end, more prominent multi-reflector headlights, LED position lights and mirror-mounted indicators.

Power continues to come from a 638 cc, fuel-injected twin-cylinder engine that’s connected to a continuously variable transmission. But it’s now reckoned to be 15% more economical when in ‘Drive’ mode, thanks to reduced mechanical losses and revised transmission settings. To further help minimise fuel consumption, a new Eco Drive Indicator lights up on the dashboard when the Burgman is being ridden in an efficient style.
However, for those occasions when pace is more important, ‘Power’ mode can be selected instead for a sharper throttle response. A third option remains ‘Manual’ mode, which allows the rider to select from five preset gear ratios via a handlebar-mounted switch.

Another aspect that Suzuki has focussed on is the brakes. The front wheel is now slowed by a pair of floating discs, while the hardware for the anti-lock system is 55% lighter than before.
Standard equipment includes an electrically-adjustable screen, a DC power outlet, a moveable rider’s backrest, a parking brake and electrically-retractable rear-view mirrors. The Executive model adds heated grips, a pillion seat backrest and heated seats to the specification.
The 2013 Burgman 650 will be available in a choice of Glass Sparkle Black, Metallic Mat Fibroin Grey or Pearl Bracing White paint finishes. Sales are due to begin next year at prices that have yet to be revealed.
