Description
Known as the Elegant Athlete of the scooter world, the 2023 Suzuki Burgman 400 has a unmatched collection of styling, technical, and rider features that affirms its dominance over its competitors. The slim and sharp styling is coated with a new Solid Iron Gray paint scheme with blue wheels that further emphasize the Burgman’s luxury performance appearance.
The Burgman’s nose and tail blend style with full LED function, as the dual headlights have integrated position lights, while the rear combination taillight elegantly blends with the smooth bodywork. A functional design is applied to the instrument cluster that clearly shows riding range and real-time fuel consumption that will help the rider conserve fuel.
The Burgman’s strong and responsive 400cc engine uses a carefully designed camshaft profile and Suzuki’s dual-spark technology ignition system to comply with worldwide emissions standards, while offering good fuel economy. Like the systems used on Suzuki’s Hayabusa and GSX-S1000GT, the Burgman features a rider-selectable Traction Control* system that offers the rider peace of mind and excellent road-holding ability in a variety of road conditions. Suzuki’s Easy Start System is a standard Burgman feature, so a momentary press of the starter button fires the engine, while the precise fuel injection system maintains a steady, smooth idle under all conditions.
The large-diameter 15-inch cast front wheel provides excellent stability while enhancing visual appearance and carries a pair of 260mm disc brake rotors, while the 13-inch rear wheel has a 210mm hydraulic disc brake for reliable stopping control. The Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)** monitors wheel speeds and hydraulic pressure hundreds of times per second to provide stopping power that matches the available traction.
Blending unmatched styling, engine, and chassis performance, along with confidence-inspiring rider aids, the Suzuki Burgman 400 continues to be the premium scooter-of-choice for riders of all experience levels.
**Depending on road surface conditions, such as wet, loose, or uneven roads, braking distance for an ABS-equipped vehicle may be longer than for a vehicle not equipped with ABS. ABS cannot prevent wheel skidding caused by braking while cornering. Please ride carefully and do not overly rely on ABS.

- The Burgman’s reliable performance is always available, whether commuting, or touring on the open road, or when riding with a passenger.
- The highly efficient engine employs Suzuki’s Dual Spark technology where a pair of long-life iridium spark plugs fire at precise intervals to provide optimized combustion efficiency.
- The 10-hole fuel injector delivers a finer spray of fuel that better combines with intake air, improving fuel consumption and overall performance.
- The exhaust’s catalyzer has an internal honeycomb design that uses a unique metal catalyst carrier to broaden its ability to purify expelled exhaust gas.
- The engine’s tuning also increases the Burgman’s fuel economy, further taking advantage of the scooter’s low weight to extend the riding range of the generous 3.6-gallon fuel tank.
- The Automatic Idle Speed Control (ISC) system always ensures proper engine idle speed, even after a cold engine start.
Chassis
- The Burgman 400’s underbone frame is constructed from large-diameter, lightweight thin-wall tubes with good rigidity resulting in improved handling.
- A large 15-inch front wheel replaces the 14-inch wheel of the prior-generation Burgman 400 for excellent stability and an enhanced visual appearance. The cast front wheel carries a pair of 260mm disc brake rotors while the 13-inch rear wheel has a 210mm hydraulic disc brake, all ABS-equipped** for reliable stopping control.
- The upswept windscreen has a trim appearance from every angle while delivering optimum wind protection and a clear view of the road.
- The scooter’s nose features sharply styled dual LED headlights with integrated LED position lights and turn signals mounted beneath. The clean and bright front end is instantly recognizable as a Suzuki Burgman.
- Abundant luggage space includes a 42-liter, under-seat storage compartment, large enough for two helmets, plus two front compartments for small personal items. Convenient switchable under-seat lights illuminate the entire storage area.
- The stepped dual seat has 3.1-inch (78.5 mm) thick padding for extra comfort. The seat’s width and profile are slim to add comfort for the rider and passenger.
- To increase comfort, especially on longer rides, the seat incorporates a rider’s backrest that is adjustable by a half-inch or a full-inch, fore-and-aft, at the press of a lever.

Rider Aid
- The Burgman’s Traction Control* system reduces slipping when taking off from a stop with the throttle fully open and lowers wheel-spin on slippery or uneven road surfaces to maintain efficient forward movement. Whether riding across wet asphalt or cobblestone streets, traction control offers the rider peace of mind and excellent road-holding ability. The system can be toggled on and off with a switch on the right handlebar. A centrally located icon on the instrument cluster informs the rider that the traction control system is on. A traction control (TC) LED icon on the speedometer illuminates at startup as a check symbol and will flash if the system is averting rear wheel spin while riding.
- The analog/LCD panel Instrument Cluster features an elegant, yet functional design. Large, easy-to-read, analog speedometer and tachometer dials flank a digital display showing an odometer, dual trip meters, fuel gauge, average fuel consumption meter, ambient temperature indicator, and clock. The centrally located LCD panel displays riding range and instant fuel consumption, making it easier for the rider to conserve fuel. Eco Drive Indicator+ on the tachometer illuminates when the Burgman is ridden in a fuel-efficient manner and may help riders learn techniques to better conserve fuel. An LED service indicator reminds the rider at a preset distance to perform regular maintenance. An LED freeze indicator++ on the tachometer face alerts the rider that icy conditions may exist.
- The standard Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)** monitors wheel speed and matches stopping power to available traction. The compact ABS control unit weighs 0.8 pounds (36 g) less than the unit used in the prior generation Burgman 400. An Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) LED at the top of the instrument cluster illuminates at startup as a check symbol and will flash if the system is averting brake lock-up while riding.
