SBF Burgmans Cafe 2008 - K1 to K7

Hi,

 

I was reviewing the specs of the 650 Exec. Looking like a good bike for me. Can anyone tell me where I should go to view the machine? How much does it cost? I would presume it a rare bike for a 650 so resale value is not there.

 

Anyway, I love the comfortable seat, storage space, and front rain protection compared to my current 650 half faring bike.

 

Any reply is much appreciated. Thanks in advanced.

No lah.... engine work..... decided to spend the money for exhaust on trying to solve the oil loss/intermittent idling-dying problem (which returned) once and for all....

 

 

How do you plan on doing that?

The idling-dying problem is probably the throttle body... like the last time you did it, just needs cleaning i presume. As for the oil-loss thingy i've completely no idea. I was thinking of something, is there space to route the oil tube on the left of the airbox back to the oil filling cap?

 

If there is then you can stick with the normal tube from the valve to the airbox and the oil drain tube back to the engine. That way no need to use extra things and any excess that goes to the airbox is sure to flow back to the engine.

 

But from what i've seen with my oil filter the oil captured in the filter is extremely minimal(probably a 10 drops) whereas the loss recorded on the dipstick is much more. Seems like the oil goes somewhere else(or gets burnt off but i doubt so since there is no bluish smoke coming from any of our exhausts) Either way it seems that the valve is not where the biggest loss comes from.

Hmmm I figured that since the air breather wasn't the problem, then the only reason why oil is still disappearing should be because of the piston and piston rings...... and this excessive burning is causing the secondary filter to become clogged.

 

So the only solution left is to change the piston and piston ring.... and at the same time do a valve adjustment.

[Arcfire]

Hmmm.... but if the engine is burning off all the eo, then shouldn't we be seeing smoke at the exhaust?

 

Its kinda a waste to be opening up the engine only to find that the piston and ring are ok..... but then again, its probably cheaper if you bring it to guan hoe.... or botak?

[william_liu]

Cheaper for which part?

 

I plan to do what this person has done in the (BurgmanUSA) website.

Cheaper for labour charge... mabbe for parts.

 

 

Interesting..... Mabbe thats y there is the idling problem as well, cos of all the carbon buildup. But a new set of piston and rings will not be cheap....

This question have been posted before. There is a '06 one @ ASP Changi & another "04 or '05 one @ Looi's. But the one @ Looi's one is quite old le. The tires have harden & critically, its not an agent bike.

A new 650 Exec cost abt $18k. A 2nd hand one from $8k onwards.

Till date, no '07 ones been to Singapore cos there is no demand for this bike. And its been mention before tat the '08 ones, likely not coming also. Unless there is a demand. Take a look in the burgmanusa.com forum.

The seat is not comfortable. Its kinda hard. And the rear absorbers are also quite stiff. And most importantly, its not a fast bike.

Hello,

 

After riding 2 Super4 and currently the Deauville650(6yrs), I am looking forward to a high power scooter. I am eyeing the Burgman 650 and I hope I am right. I am not really in the scooter scene at all.

 

Can anyone suggest where I should go for viewing and buying this bike?

 

Thanks in advanced.

Thanks for your reply. That means this model is not selling well and not supported. Does the agent bring in the 650? Will be problem if there is parts and accessories issues. How about the 400 k7? Is it more much cheap and popular?

There is one K6 model in ASP Changi and one K4 model in Looi's Motor.

The one is ASP Changi is a grey colour one. They selling at abt $18k. But dunno still there or not.

The one in Looi's motor is kinda old. Tire seems harden liao. They selling abt $17k but its not an agent bike.

Heard tat ASP Changi got a 2nd hand 2 year old one. But dunno still there or sold off le. Best u go down check it out.

 

Btw, tis 650 is not powerful. Cos its running on gears. Not belt driven. And the aero dynamics are no good. Top speed abt 180km/hr. Even a Honda Silverwing 400 Euro can achive this speed.

Any probs or questions, can always give me a call.

So I may be better of with 400-K7. Cheaper and bigger storage space. How much it cost?

 

Any idea when the 400-K8 will be in?
