Hey Storm, I'm tommyjr from Louisville, KY. USA. Wish we could ride together sometimes because all the riders I have to ride with so-far is riders with "conventional bikes" but since we live so far apart guess that won't happen. My ride is a 2009 Burgman 650 Executive, Pearl White, with a few modifications. This is my first bike "ever". I bought her in June 2009 and mostly commuted on her to and from work (80 mile round trip) until around October when the salt trucks came out and the weather got rough. I can't wait until the weather clears up and I can ride again. I went on a few leisure rides with co-workers last summer and they couldn't believe how fast Suzi was and how much power she has. Once (and if) you get past the conventional "scooter" look, She's truly a 650cc motorcycle with a step through frame. I haven't seen any other Burgmans in my area. I wish there was more. I'd like to meet and ride with someone I don't constantly have to prove my bike to. It has plenty of power but it is a 650cc afterall. Smile

Hello Storm welcome to the site from Blountville, TN. I am deaf in my right ear but hea out of the left ear so reckon you got me beat. From reading your post I would guess you have been deaf since birth.

G'day!

bought Wink black 2009 burgman 400 in 6weeks ago. At first I didnt like the look, but it start to grow on me and then when I start to ride, then I love it since I bought first scooter SYM HD200, it is good start for me till i had a best trade in for Burgman… for further travel in future.

Many friends of mine said to me, why scooter, why not get a real bike? I said to them. I like to be different, then later on when I had burgman, they said "about time you got a great bike" I said to them it is maxi scooter, they said Nahhhh cant be then take a closer look. you should see thier face,,, Surprised then you know the rest.
