no scrapping pegs here

burgie 650 has none, must be either the plastic sides or sidestand/center stand?

If wife was on back me driving that fast where they were at,  I would have gotten whacked alongside my head a few dozen times to SLOW DOWN.  Having a burgie 650 NON-Executive model, I have never scrapped anything down below like this guy does on nearly every corner, but have scrapped left casing down below on my 250cc scooter a few times grinding down part of the metal casing and one bolt holding it on.

for those thinking 638cc v-twin are slow, try  burgie 650 out, pretty impressive and torquey,  let off the throttle and it slows down very abruptly.  POWER button is pretty impressive revving rpms up way high but the manual push button up/down shifts are not to my liking.  I once accidentally pushed the manual button starting off and was wondering why my RPMS's were SUPER HIGH in 1st gear doing 25 mph wanting to speed up faster- duh!     90 mph feels like 70 on it though have not exceeded 100mph on it though tops out around 112mph.

That didn’t look crazy fast. I mean he wasn’t poking along by any means but looked safe enough

He certainly must know that road well . Times when the sunlight is just right I could read the speedo and it was of 90 several times. I have no idea whats scrapping down under but it might be worn a good bit if always rides that way.

In the comments, they were saying it was the center stand scraping. One or two told him how to remedy the situation by cutting some rubber bumpers so the stand could retract further.

This video kinda renewed my interest in a Burgy executive model.

That’s in Switzerland. The speeds were in mph. 90 equates to 50-55 mph.

he must have been leaning over a TON to get the center stand to scrape like that.  I have leaned my 650 burgie over a few times pretty far and not once hit the center stand.  A used burgie 650 can be had for 2-3K well worth the purchase price IMO capable of all day hwy cruising 2-up and gets 50-51 avg mpg for me consistently on 87 octane not requiring 91 non ethanol gas and enough underseat storage for all day shopping.    Executive not worth the added price IMO only really getting power up/down windshield (mine all the way up is fine as stock) and power fold in mirrors is about it extra.    I have even seen a few with aftermarket russell day long seats which look very very comfy. 

Only thing is the rear tire does not last too long 14 inch and wide and I ate up one whole bridgestone tire at ONLY 6000 miles down to the cords vs. a Valk rear tire 9000 miles or so.

By all means don't scrap the pegs if you have them.  You do need somewhere to put your feet.
