Electric screen, better power:weight ratio and proper underseat area instead of the IKEA washing basket thing still makes the Forza 350 my choice in the category.

I can also add the 400GT to list of bikes BMW might have sold me if the warranty person at Alan Jefferies wasn't a sarcastic @#$3. That's just a personal vendetta though, I'd say that 2-foot of cable they owe me is easily covered by the 10-12 bike sales they've lost over the years 👿. I'm 100% DIY service, so that offering is a firm meh from me.

The Suzuki isn't a serious offering at that price, that's for sure.

The bmw also has way more comfortable full leg stretch cruiser style riding position, having tried both machines...

My local (Kawasaki) dealer had both side by side in their used section last week, so I had a quick skwiz Both have a higher tunnel to step over than the Burgy, but the ADVs seat's a lot higher. The BMW was a few hundred more tbh, but the shiny metaflake gold with bright red seat-top and wheels combination would knock your eye out on a sunny day!
