I spent over an hour writing a long Post (probably my last) explaining the Title of this Post. My wife has been ill and with two of my daughters visiting (many distractions) it took me some time to write it.
When I finally finished the Post and clicked to download it, I found that my "story" was gone and no way to get it back.:gaah:

So briefly, the gist is I'm now riding my third new Burgman650 I've owned and it's the "new" 2013 Model.

Sorry to see that the :spyder2: is now history. I went back and read all your previous posts. It does not sound like the :ani29: was a good match for you from the start.

The Burgman is a very nice scooter, and I know a couple people here that ride them all over the state. You made a good choice there. :thumbup:

Thanks to all of you who offered your best wishes. Usually when someone says something like "Nice Scooter" I reply "it's really not a scooter...it's a motorcycle disguised as a scooter!" 650cc will run me down the road faster then I want to go. Saw 90mph on my first one once and still had lots of throttle left!

The Burgman is a nice machine, and even nicer when converted into a trike.

An acquaintance of mine in Nova Scotia started building the conversions, they look great.

Good Luck.
