Tires , yes always a challenge due to the 15" rim . Have used the Michelin Pilot 4 recently & really like it , but the price is getting kinda ridiculous Found Bridgestone tire that might be decent . Not sure how long they last . Look for Bridgestone Battlax SC2 . They also make a SC2 Rain...

Hi - I have a 2015 C650GT with 32,700 miles. Had the timing chain tensioner updated to hydraulic version a while ago. Maybe this update has helped keep it running longer

Hi - You need to get NGK plugs : #93444 - LMAR8D-J

Just my experience with resetting is DON'T go to the dealer unless you have one that's really nice to you . Takes 10 mins to reset you code & they - the dealer - will charge 1/2 hr of labor . Typical hr rate is $195 If you plan to keep the BMW for a while then get the GS911 scan tool . IT's...

Hi - I would recommend MOTUL oils . The "Scooter Power" 5-40W oil is good . The 7100 is pure synthetic , so much better quality . I use the Hi-Flo oil filters . Built as good as OEM , but cost less. Ebay is a good source Motul oils

Hi - Didn't see a reduction in top speed when I installed the 28 gram sliders Not sure how fast you want to go . Highest speed I've gone my 2015 model with sliders is 105 mph. I think the C650 can go up to 115 mph. Anyway , I'm happy with usual around town & freeway performance with my...

The stock variator is good. I would suggest changing the roller to Dr. Pulley Sliders - 28 Gram weight. They last longer than rollers & make decent difference with speed from a stop. Have to buy the sliders from the maker - Dr. Pulley located in Taiwan Here's the link...

Hi there - I keep reading about people wanting to reflash the ECU on the C650's . Reflashing is much common in the motorcycle world , not in scooterland . Nobody I know of has the ability to reflash a C650. Also , why would you want to? You want speed, then get a Yamaha MT-10 or a MT-07. Those...

Berks - I'm not surprised BMW acted like like they did . Basically it will cost BMW $ to do the right thing & fix the problem they're completely aware of. I was hard to get BMW to help me out. BMW doesn't want to do what's right & honorable, which is a sad comment for such a big multi national...

Royboy- The Gen 1 BMW was 2012 -2015 model years. The 2016 & up 2020 are Gen 2 . Also you can tell by the exhaust pipes if it's Gen 1 or 2. The Gen 2 pipes are kinda swept upwards & have 2 pipes . The Gen 1 has a smaller fatter , more horizontal exhaust pipe The Gen 2 should have hydraulic...

Berks - Your 2013 should be covered by the BMW recall . 1st step to to call BMW customer service & tell them the last 7 numbers of your VIN # . Example: ZT97302 . BMW will tell you if your C650GT qualifies for the service to have the tensioner changed to a hydraulic version all repair work...

Just a FYI - Wilbers in Germany makes a rear shock designed to work on a C650GT . Malossi makes a shock for the C650 Sport , but not the GT model Here's the link to Germany Wilbers...

Heads up on where to buy Dr. Pulley Sliders . I bought my set from Buggy Parts in Utah & recently emailed them about sliders not in stock since the beginning of 2022 for the BMW C650GT . They no longer sell the sliders due to supply restrictions from Dr. Pulley factory. Resellers have to order...

I got tired of BMW USA saying sorry your 2015 C650 GT isn't on the recall list so , have a nice day. I hope your tensioner doesn't fail & waste your engine . Well the next step is to email the CSO of BMW in Germany - [email protected] He will send your complaint to BMW USA in...

The 2015 model doesn't have all the features of the 2016 model. The exhaust & transmission is different on the 2016. But the biggest problem is you have a mechanical cam chain tensioner, not the hydraulic version. Big issue if you can't trust the mechanical version. It's unknown how dependable...
