Reviews of Suzuki Burgman Street 125

The bike is amazing in regards to design , looks, performance, features speed and controls. The only discomfort during the long drive is with the seat cushions i.E for the rider as well as for the pillion, which i see in all its variant. . Suzuki needs to improve its seat comfort for more comfortable ride.

About the Reviewer

Pros:Excellent look - everyone asks, eye catching. More spacious - legroom and lengthy seat. Great mileage - ~50kmpl. Riding experience - smooth and nice pickup, lesser vibration.Con:Tiny 10" back tyre (it is not a con, it may be for good mileage)Overall good experience....

About the Reviewer

Buying experience was ok.
Riding experience is good actually but on rough roads and speed breaker experience is not ok.
Looks I will say 10/10. Performance is ok but mileage is poor.
Service and maintenance is pathetic and way more expensive. Zero service from dealer and suzuki motorcycle India.
Pros if you are looking for a show off definitely go for it.
Cons if you are from middle class family then drop your idea for it.
I feel service charges are costly after buying it.

About the Reviewer

I bought this bike after 2 days of launch!!!Really amazing experience...Although its bit expensive when compared to ntorq which is the only competitor for this bike, burgman street beats ntorq with the extraordinary looks & style!!!!!! Out-performance all other two wheeler in scooter category in all the aspects such as pick up, suspension, ride comfort, engine sound, seating space (easily 3 can sit), digital speedometer display, led white lamps, mobile charger.

Buying experience was good
Riding experience was very good except small rear wheel which comes right under riders spine, Stunning look & performance, Poor quality service & maintenance
Good mileage, but will give more comfort if the location of engine with rear wheel is little more backside, Overall a good value for money scooter.

About the Reviewer

Amazing looks, elegant design, superb ride comfort, good mileage. Overall a total package. After riding for more than 100 kms continuously I don't have any back pain nor my pillion have any pain. Comfort is the main feature of this scooter. Should have included the pass by switch. Only problem is rear tyre which looks small that doesn't affect the riding.

Buying experience :
Below average.
Riding experience:
Due to maxi scooter style, the handle bar will be a new experience for those who have been riding a flat handle bar scooter. But it easily grows on you and within half an hour it is well connected with the rider.
Scooter is just 25 cc more than the usual 100 cc scooters and on upper the power difference is not much, but the power difference is felt more when driving it after having driven the 100 cc scooters.
The seat is very comfortable for the driver.
The back seat is comfortable for pillion but because of the width, and raised foot pegs initial few minutes of the ride are uncomfortable for the pillion passenger.
But the seat is really good for the driver.
Good comfy seat combined with the scooter design ensures both easy manoeuvrability and well as ease of driving. The maxi style handle bar is especially very useful on highway.
This is not a maxi scooter. Although all websites and experts call it that.
Burgman 125 is classy as a maxi-scooter, whereas the one sold in India is Burgman 125 which is a scooter (access in a maxi type body) that said, it is still the best scooter in the market in this range.
The foot placement area is great. It allows the cruiser stance as there is a place to rest your feet like you would do on a cruiser bike. You can also push your feet a little backward as in the sports bike style or keep it flat at 90 degrees. I have to say it again that the scooter is super comfy on highway.
A few days ago i took it to Mohali from Delhi, a total distance of about 260 km.
Just after Kundli in Haryana, it began to rain. And it rained all the way to punjab.
It took me 5 hours of driving in rain to reach.
The scooter was firm and steady.
I did not take a break anywhere so it was a continuous 5 to 6 hours of driving.
I had a bag about 10 kgs of weight. I am rather fat and heavy set at 100 kgs.
The scooter neither heated-up nor complained in any way or manner.
I was surprised that it would reach a speed of 85 km/l, 90 km/l and above without letting me know.
I had to watch the speedometer to make sure I am at good controllable speed of 70s range. The point is that it picks up speed effortlessly and with my weight, it was a pleasant surprise. I have an activa 100 cc old scooter, a good one, but my weight becomes was a problem for that one. Rain and stronger rather colder winds may have contributed to scooter not heating.
So the scooter is comfortable in city and more comfortable on long highway rides.
I would like to mention that the scooter has a strange combination of wheels. The front wheels are 12" and the back wheels are 10". Because of its length lighter body and power, the rear wheel skids rather easily and very fast. Three times the scooter fell down in Delhi and fortunately I survived without any injury as I drive very very slowly in Delhi. But it is a problem. The tyres are not grippy and skids easily on wet surface and gravel. So one has to be extra conscious of that fact.
They must have a reason for giving a 12"/10" combo , but my experience tells me that the rear wheel skids without any stunts. A little more angular or beveled turning will bring this scooter down from the rear wheel.
The looks are gorgeous. In my opinion, the wider front body helps in comfort on highways.
The fuel efficiency goes down if the tyre pressure is low.
The battery is very underpowered ( 3 amp) so it lasted just a few months and i had to buy a new one. No help from the dealers for replacement.
The service experience is below average but that is the case with most scooters Honda activa included. They book too many for service have too less hands and fewer service bays / slots.
The engine is great so far.
I would give it 7.5 out of 8 because of under seat fuel intake, the tyres, and consistent danger of sliding.
N torq could be an alternative but really that scooter had very bad leg room.
But really right now this scooter has no comparison in India. The Vespa may be, but that is more expensive and I have heard worse service experience. I am planning to buy another one for my daughter. But when i hear Yamaha nmax 155 may be launched soon, i want to wait.
The paint quality is great.
Fit and finish is above average if not excellent.
Overall a great buy and a great satisfying ownership experience. Thumbs up.
