What's your No.1 Maxi-Scooter? Let us know in the comments

I bought my Burgman 650 scooter around 2006. It the best bike I've ever owned. I can't comment on the other bikes because the only other one I tried was the Honda Helix that, when the wind was strong, it pushed me all over the road. I still have my Burgman and I'm going for a long ride today if weather permits.

1 month into living with my 2019 X adv 750 and I am loving it. No complaints at all. Perfect bike for city and longer rides 👌

Ten thumbs up for yamaha Tmax. Cream of the crop scooter and nine thumbs up for the Suzuki burgman 400. My five cents opinion. Gd day!

[derbyshireruralrider]

I’d go for ADV350 as it’s about half price of it’s big brother and adequate performance

[jonaspersson]

The Piaggio Beverly 400 would have been perfect for me. That would be my first choice!

[CiBi]

I almost bought a Forza 750 .. But I didn't fancy paying £10k for what is really an updated Integra . The TMax is lovely, but at £12, 500 Is a luxury not all can afford. The X-Adv is nice but with the hassle of chain drive as with the Forza 750. I decided in the end to spend a lot less on a 2018 Suzuki Burgman 650 Exec with 2, 600 miles on it . I looked at a new 400, sat on it, but there just wasn't the space for 2 Adults to be sat comfortably for a cross country or Inter-continental trip. The Burgman is Comfy - Has the power, Heated seats, Grips, Electric Screen, Loads of storage . Sometimes you have to look at what you really need something for & decide if you really need New ! Afterall as soon as you ride that brand spanking new scoot off of the forecourt you have probably kissed goodbye to 10% of the re-sale value should you have made the wrong choice . Think Twice - Buy Once 😉👍

Proud owner of an a xdv .. is coming at the end of this month… can’t wait.. counting the days…

The piaggio beverly 400 is perfect for touring, just been round Scotland on mine with guys on BMW s, the BV 400 was perfect I never got tyred and saved a load of money on fuel, keep your big BMW s twist and go much easier.

[VegitoBlackityBlack]

I'd put the ADV 350 on this list.

[OperationReapSinners]

Yamaha Tmax tech 2022-2023 is so efficient in technology, very practical, so easy to maintain, and very stylish.

[tonyp]

Love her excitement over these scooters.

I realise that any list like this will depend on what bikes/scooters are available in the market where the video was made, in this case the UK. First I note that no three wheelers were considered (allowing for what I just said about the models available in the test market). I would have thought some consideration might have been given for the Piaggio MP3 400 or Gilera 500 both maxis and well worth a thought in terms of performance, comfort and price. In my view the bench mark for maxi scooters is the Suzuki Burgman 650 AN Executive (I own one - I know they are no longer sold in Australia where I live) - it may not be available in the UK anymore and so that is why it was not considered. I haven't ridden the 400 but it appears to be a smaller version with a little less kit. I rate the 650 highly because it is good in the city for the daily commute (we don't have congestion charges in Australia - yet) but is even better on the open road easily sitting on 110km/h (the national speed limit) all day. It is ideal for touring. The under seat storage accommodates 2 full face helmets (if packed correctly). The CVT works well with the twin engine - there is the full CVT option, a manual option with a 6th gear for overdrive on the open road giving better fuel economy (with careful riding up to 250kms/14l tank and a power option in "auto" mode for extra power when over taking. An electrically adjustable while riding screen which gives good protection from the wind and electrically fold in mirrors complete the package.

I have got the Forza 750 fully kitted out. It can handle long journeys without fail. Uk France Spain Gibraltar Portugal through to Northern Spain to Santander then home. Love It.

Sym Joyride 300. For true scooter aficionados, a flat floor is a must.

[joaocesarayres]

I wish there was a 300cc and over scooter with flat floor and room for 2 helmets under the seat.
This would be the ultimate all-around practical scooter!

[michaelreed]

So reviewing a scooter you could not buy in the UK makes sense. I have watched a of your videos now and surprised me how many have reviews about machines you don’t know the price of . Crazy. Apart from this keep up the good work

[aussie]

Tmax is probably the best followed by the Adv and Kymco AK 550 is up there as well!!

[jamesdraffa]

Would love to see something about which scoot is more passenger friendly. Looking for a scoot where my passenger is comfortable.

Don't laugh but I ride a 2021 Kymco Agility 125 which is perfect for local travel with plenty of zip. Weighing in at only 200 lbs it is nimble and feels like an extension of my body on wheels. Fuel economy (110 mpg) is also great. For longer expeditions (but not long-distance cross-country) I take my 2014 Honda NSS-300. The Honda (279cc, 80 mpg, 24 bhp) has lots of power, sips gas, and cruises quietly and comfortably at 60-70 mph. If I were in the market for another maxi, I would go for the Kymco AK550 - a fine twin-cyl for longer hauls, and at a reasonable price.
