Picked up a pre owned 2016 C650 Sport from the fine folks at Cal Moto here in Livermore yesterday. It replaces a Yamaha Zuma 125 that I used for errands for a few years but fell woefully short when riding two up with my wife. I loved the "Maxi Scooter" concept after seeing a BMW 400 recently on a Cal Moto shop ride. My C650S will sit alongside my Yamaha Tenere 700 and as a bonus it will allow me to join the NorCal BMW Club. I have been riding and camping with this fine group for almost a year as a guest. Of course the T7 is my adventure bike but this scooter does get me in the door ;)
I'm reading the manual this morning so the questions are popping up. But the first thing I need to do is get a cover because this bike is going to have to be parked outside. On to the forums!
 
I recently (May) bought a cover from Carcovers.com. I have a 2020 C650 GT. I bought the Platinum Shield Scooter Cover (sku: pssc1) and I love it. $119.95. Fits perfectly without being too snug. Goes all the way down to the ground. It also has a way to lock it (lock not provided) underneath.
You won't be unhappy.

Congrats. I had an orange 2016 c650 sport. Now riding 2019gt. Sport is definitely more peppier and maneuverable around city traffic.
 
Interesting. I really don't know much about the differences between a Sport and GT, besides the creature comfort stuff. I was fine with getting the Sport, good price and the more I drive it and learn about it the more impressed I am.
