LOL! The beginning took me by complete surprise. I had just commented a minute ago on someone else's video posted of a Burgman trip simply commenting that I much prefer the 400 to the 650 due to the way in which the engine churns - call me silly but good Lord, the 650 sounds as if it is struggling and screaming to produce power, even while putting around and I really don't like that. It sounds as if it is working WAY TOO HARD to move. The 400 - is just right! Smooth, low rev and punchy!

[fcunderwood]

When I get mine I wont be doing the stunts you doing..

[craigsjaffe]

surprised you didn't take off like a jet.... that wakeboard looks like a wing lol....Welcome aboard Burgman Air !

[micbergsma]

@craigsjaffe i like the idea "burgman air" !!

[craigsjaffe]

that tunnel bag looks handy, I have a RAM mounted drink holder which on long trips i use. I have a Garmin quest on the left side with a RAM (motorcyle larry) ball mount. I am adding one for my camcorder onto my mirror.

[johnballs]

Hello Micberg...how did you mount the camera? the video looks very stable and dont shake a lot. i am planning to get a Burgman soon, this summer....thx!

[micbergsma]

@johnballs sweet let me know when you get a burgman! i will make a video of how I mount my gopro and post up soon

[craigsjaffe]

Burgmans rock !!!! nice for the long haul.

[micbergsma]

@craigsjaffe oh yes!!

[apoelGTR]

[micbergsma]

@apoelGTR haha thanks, that would be cool! i hope!

[0269Reaper]

is that ur wakeboard on the back? Does it act as an airfoil at all? Affect handling ?

[micbergsma]

@0269Reaper yup board on the passenger seat, nope... nothing.. bike is so stable.. like you can tell by me riding with no hands on the handlebar :)

[doraleo2008]

Well done.... Mich..

What was,your crusing speed 80 mph??

[micbergsma]

@doraleo2008 thanks! East to Florida I went 85mph, on way back home to Texas yes at 80mph, on way back west, there was really strong wind from southwest it was so annoying for a long time but lucky I have Givi tall windshield on my bike!

[doraleo2008]

@micbergsma

and on what rpm is 80 mph ?? 6000??

on my Burgman 80mph,engine speed is on 8000rpm...

My belt is finish his job... :( :( near 15000 miles....

[micbergsma]

@doraleo2008 yes 80mph at 6000 rpm, suzuki manual say that have to change belt at 14,500 miles but I know people that can get it to 20,000 or more... I change at 17,000 to be safe.

you should get Dr Pulley Sliders so your rpm will be a lot lower at high speed

[Robspolo]

Cool video! Well done.

[lojo259]

Wow! You're da man for sure!! Love the video. I'm hope to do the same route except my destination is Southwest LA. One of these days!!
