Suzuki Katana vs Suzuki Burgman Street Comparison

The Suzuki Katana has that nostalgic appeal to a 1980s design with modern performance. Mind it, the motor's got enough performance and more, and the soundtrack is addictive! It's got good dynamics backed by a chassis that keeps the Katana very well-balanced. To top it all, there's no engine heat, even in bumper to bumper traffic and it's got character, charm and excitement all rolled into a retro-styled package.

The 2026 Suzuki Burgman Street is a more refined maxi-scooter than earlier. The looks, mechanical updates, a stiffer chassis, larger 12-inch rear wheel, keyless ignition, and a sharp TFT screen improve the overall experience by a fair margin.

Preetam Bora correctly pointed out in his review, “If you're an urban commuter who values style and features over pure sportiness, the new Burgman Street 125 is the scooter for you.”

However, missing out on ABS remains a clear oversight by Suzuki, especially when its Access 125 does. Nevertheless, if you want a comfortable, decently equipped, robust and reasonably frugal 125 cc scooter with that all-out maxi look, the Burgman is a safe choice.
