Overview
When you sit on the Burgman Street, it immediately feels more like a comfortable commuter scooter with a bit of extra thought behind it — not a performance bike, but something built for daily life with some flair and convenience. Its engine is a modest 124 cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled unit with fuel injection and a simple SOHC, 2-valve head. For everyday use — city rides, errands, short commutes — this works very well: the scooter doesn’t demand revving or aggressive throttle use, but gives smooth, manageable power that’s easy to control.
That translates to around 8.7 PS of power when the engine hits roughly 6,750 rpm, and a torque output of 10 Nm around 5,500 rpm. What you feel on the road is gentle acceleration — enough to get through traffic, overtake slower vehicles, or cruise casually on suburban roads, but nothing wild or “fast bike” level. The automatic CVT transmission means no gear shifting, no clutch — just twist and go. That simplicity is a blessing in everyday traffic or frequent stop-and-go situations, especially for someone who prefers fuss-free commuting.
Because the engine is fuel-injected and not over-stressed, it tends to be predictable: no jerks, no sudden surges, just smooth power when you need it. That reliability and ease make it good for a daily rider — someone who wants convenience and comfort over raw performance.
Physically, the Burgman Street leans toward a stable and manageable feel. It’s about 1,880 mm long, 715 mm wide and 1,140 mm tall, with a wheelbase of 1,265 mm. The seat sits at around 780 mm height — a comfortable middle ground for many riders — and the kerb weight comes in at roughly 110 kg. What that means on real roads: the scooter feels solid and stable, but still light enough to handle in city traffic, parking, or narrow lanes. The 160 mm ground clearance gives a little buffer over uneven roads, potholes or speed breakers — useful on typical urban and semi-urban streets.
The suspension setup is simple but sensible: telescopic front fork and a swing-arm rear. It won’t feel like a plush touring bike, but for daily rides over city roads or occasional rough patches, it does a decent job of absorbing bumps without making the ride harsh. The wheels are alloy, with tubeless tyres sized 90/90-12 at the front and 90/100-10 at the rear, which offer decent grip and stability without making the ride feel clingy or skittish.
Braking is basic but adequate: a disc brake up front and a drum brake at the rear. For city speeds and everyday riding, it gives enough stopping confidence — nothing dramatic, but enough for typical traffic or moderate-speed rides. For someone who rides sensibly and doesn’t push for racing-bike stops, it’s more than fine.
Where the Burgman Street shines beyond the usual scooter — and why it stands out for many buyers — is its thoughtful features and convenience touches. The Bluetooth-enabled digital console (on the Ride-Connect / higher variants) brings features rarely seen in this segment: turn-by-turn navigation when paired with your phone, missed-call / call / SMS / WhatsApp alerts, over-speed warning, ETA updates, phone battery level display, and more. For daily urban commuting, this kind of tech adds real value: you get smart connectivity without needing extra gadgets stuck to your handlebar.
LED headlight and rear lamp raise visibility at night and give a more premium feel compared to old-school scooters. There’s a large under-seat storage (enough for a helmet or a small bag), a front glove-box or pocket, and handy hooks — small but practical touches for errands, groceries or daily commuting. A USB/DC socket (in Ride-Connect version) lets you charge your phone on the go — a surprisingly useful feature if you rely on navigation or calls.
In real ownership terms, the Burgman Street doesn’t demand much from you. It’s easy to start whether kick or electric, easy to manoeuvre in traffic, reasonably light and upright enough to give confidence even to riders who aren’t super experienced. Fuel tank capacity is about 5.5 litres — not huge, but adequate for city riding, short suburban runs or occasional commuting without frequent stops.
That said, this convenience-oriented, everyday-commuter-style scooter comes with trade-offs. Because the engine is small and tuned for economy rather than performance, you won’t get exciting acceleration, high-speed overtakes, or strong highway comfort. If you try pushing it on highways or long-distance runs, the limited power and basic suspension will quickly show their limits — you won’t get the stability, comfort, or reserve that a higher-capacity bike or touring scooter offers.
The rear drum brake, while fine for city speeds, might feel a bit soft if you try aggressive stops or ride carrying pillion. The tyre sizes and wheel setup — while great for manoeuvring and daily rideability — are modest, so cornering or stability at high speed is fairly basic. Under heavy load or two-up riding, the ride may feel a little strained.
In the end, riding the Burgman Street feels like owning a sensible, well-balanced city companion rather than a performance machine. It’s the kind of scooter that doesn’t demand respect but gives you ease, comfort, a few modern touches, and peace of mind. For someone who rides daily in traffic, does errands, occasional commutes — especially in towns or cities — it offers a smart blend of practicality and convenience. If you want speed, highway touring, or sporty performance, you’d be better served by a more powerful machine. But for everyday life — rides to work, college, grocery trips, short outings — the Burgman Street is a quietly capable, no-fuss partner.
