The Burgman experience
“I have a knee problem that makes mobility challenging for me,” said motovlogger Telly Buhay of Turbanrider. “Burgman is perfect because of its spacious floorboard and step-through features. I am very satisfied with this scooter's performance that I use it every day!”
Arius Franco, Co-admin -for the Manila Chapter and Cocz Marcelo, Admin Officer of Malabon Chapter, cited the Burgman's fuel efficiency that offers value for money and better mileage per liter. The large floorboard allows for more cargo space for Franco’s deliveries.
The Suzuki Burgman Street comes with a 125cc, 4-stroke, single-cylinder, SOHC, 2-valve engine that boasts of up to 53.50 km/l consumption. It has sufficient power for daily city rides, and its smooth CVT automatic makes riding effortless that it requires only a simple twist of the wrist to operate.
For Gilbert Chao, a veteran writer and rider himself of Motoph.com, The Monitor Mindanao Today, and the Pilipino Star Ngayon, Burgman provides users with one of the best acceleration in its category, in addition to a comfort ride. Most importantly, the size of the scooter makes it safe for the rider.

We can start fixing the problems that threaten our ecosystem by teaching the community, our riders, and friends that the physical environment is fragile and indispensable. As stewards of the environment, we encourage everyone to participate in the change and teach our community what is needed to create a sustainable future,” Guba stressed.
