Built around Suzuki's scooter motorcycle platform, the 2023 Suzuki Burgman 400 relies on a 399 cc (24.4 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 81.0 x 77.6 mm (3.2 x 3.1 inches) with a 10.6:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Burgman 400 measures 218 kg (481 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 755 mm (29.7 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,580 mm (62.2 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 13.5-liter (3.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
