Suzuki Burgman Street

Suzuki Burgman Street Highlights

Suzuki launched the Burgman Street, a maxi-style scooter which was first unveiled at the 2018 Auto Expo, on 19 July, 2018. Powered by a 125cc, the Suzuki Burgman Street is priced at a premium of Rs 68,000 (ex-showroom Delhi). While it may not be a full-on maxi-scooter like its elder sibling, the Burgman 650, the 125cc scooter looks more imposing than its direct rivals. This is mainly due to its bulbous front end and the overall bulky design.

The Suzuki Burgman Street comes with a plethora of features such as integrated LED headlamps, a fairly large windscreen and the Suzuki Gixxer’s digital instrument cluster. The scooter also gets a 12V charging socket, storage bins behind the front apron, tubeless tyres and multi-function key slot. The long wheelbase, the stretched out floorboard and the wide handlebars should make the Burgman Street a hoot to ride around town. It’s sheer size also gives it a generous under-seat storage space of 21.5 litres, which is the best in its class.

Powering the Burgman Street is the same motor that does duty on the Suzuki Access 125. This 124.3cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled engine produces 8.7PS of power and 10.2Nm of torque.  Suspension duties are handled by telescopic forks at the front and a side-mounted single shock at the rear. Braking is handled by a disc brake at the front and a drum brakes at the rear, with CBS (combi-braking system) offered as standard. 

Equipped with 12-inch front and 10-inch rear alloy wheels, the Suzuki Burgman Street boasts of a ground clearance of 160mm. The 780mm seat height should make it accessible for most riders. Fuel tank capacity is rated at 5.6 litres. Tipping the scale at 110kg, the Burgman Street doesn’t look as heavy as it looks. The Suzuki Burgman Street competes with the Honda Grazia, the TVS NTorq, Vespa LX 125 and the Aprilia SR 125.
