Suzuki Burgman Street EX: what’s new?
Compared to existing Burgman Street variants, the EX has larger 12-inch rear wheels (instead of 10-inch ones) with wider 100/80-12 tires, silent start and automatic start/stop . Suzuki has also equipped it with new Suzuki Eco Performance Alpha (SEP-α) technology, which is said to be an enhanced version of Suzuki’s fuel-efficient Eco Performance Technology. There are also some slight differences in size and weight. The EX is 1kg (111kg) heavier, has a 25mm longer wheelbase but is 5mm narrower than the standard Burgman.
The EX continued to be powered by a 124 cc, 2-valve, single-cylinder engine that operated throughout the remainder of the Burgman Street line-up. However, the EX makes 0.1hp (8.6hp) less at slightly lower rpm while torque remains unchanged at 10Nm.
In terms of features, the Burgman Street EX has LED headlights, a Bluetooth-enabled LCD screen and a USB charging socket. The new Burgman Street EX comes in three colors – Platinum Silver, Bronze and Black.
