Pros and Cons in comparison

Suzuki Burgman 400 2020

The Suzuki Burgman 400 is a tried and tested maxi scooter that scores points above all for its reliability, large storage space and high level of comfort. It is ideal for daily use and longer journeys, but reaches its limits when it comes to modern technical features. For fans of classic scooters with a solid character, the Burgman remains a good choice, even if it is slightly more expensive than the competition.

Large storage capacity

High ride comfort and good weather protection

Reliable and proven technology

Stable driving style even in difficult

road conditions

Drive train and display appear outdated

Noticeable "rubber band effect" when starting off

No modern features such as Smartkey or adjustable windscreen

BMW C 400 X 2018

BMW has certainly arrived well in the mid-size scooter segment with the C400X. Thanks to the competitive performance, the propulsion is completely satisfactory and, in combination with the sporty chassis, even gives rise to real riding pleasure. In addition, the scooter can be equipped to a very high standard (for an additional charge) and can almost be raised to motorbike level. Unfortunately, the sporty tuning of the suspension struts is not much fun on bad roads, and the front brake does not do justice to the scooter's character.

Good traction

clean response

sporty chassis

high-quality equipment possible

LED lighting technology

storage compartment variable

Suspension struts too hard on bad roads

front brake could have more bite

expensive accessories
