    Bike revving noise

    If you have already had your bike serviced for the chain tensioner recall, wanted to know if any of you noticed the engine had a louder revving sound? I noticed that on mine. Did any of you noticed? Your thoughts?

    Need HELP installing Hyper-Lites

    I'm going to remove the Back-off XP module and install the Hyper-Lites on my 650gt after very good comments and results posted. I'm not tech savvy, so I'm asking if someone who's installed it can give me some quick tips or instructions. Here are some pics.

    LED Rear lights

    Has anyone tried replacing the factory rear lights with LEDs, and if so is there much improvement? Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk

    Changed oil, now shakes more when idling and revs harder.

    I know the manual calls for 15w50 for my 650gt. However, I've always used Amsoil full synthetic on my previous motorcycles. I changed the oil and used what Amsoil told me was comparable to the 15w50. They don't have that weight so I used 20w50. Immediately after I noticed that the bike would...

    Amsoil or bust

    When I go into Amsoil's website they do recommend a 100% synthetic oil for this bike, however, no one in this forum seems to recommend one. Is it that riders who read this forum don't know much about Amsoil or is there not a 100% synthetic oil recommended for this bike. I don't want to use...

    Motul Motor Oil

    It seems like Motul is the motor oil of choice for the 650gt...Is this a blend? and is it actually better than the OEM oil it comes with? What kind of oil does it come with anyway? Your thoughts?

    Looking for a compatible synthetic motor oil.

    I came across a synthetic motor oil that is SAE 10w-40 with the following compatible specs: API SG, SL/CF, CG-4; JASO MA/MA2; ISO-L-EMA2; API GL-1 Does anyone know if this oil would be ok for my 650gt?

    Has anyone used Amsoil 100% synthetic motor oil?

    I've been using Amsoil Signature series 100% synthetic motor oil on my previous bikes. I asked my dealer if it was ok to bring my own Amsoil oil at time of the 600 miles break-in service, and of course he told that with a bike like BMW that I should really use their recommended oil. BMW has a...

    Maintenance Cost Pricey?

    I just put a deposit for a new c650gt, and now I'm having buyer's remorse mainly because of the thought of maintenance cost, with it being a BMW. Should I be that concerned? Should I have gone the the Suzuki Burgman 650 instead? Your thoughts please.

    Is engine rough on c650gt?

    From reviews I've read and seen some have said that the engine on the BMW c650gt compared to that of the Suzuki Burgman 650 is rough and sounds rough. What is meant by that? I get an idea but I'd like to hear from the already c650gt owners.

    BMW 650gt shaky handling beyond 80 mph?

    I just read a review of a guy who just bought a BMW 650gt on the Suzuki Burgman forum (Huh???) and claims that beyond 80 mph the 650gt feels unstable and shakes too much. Said the 2013 Burgman can hit 105 mph and still remains smooth. Do you you find this to be true? Your thought?

    2013 650GT vs 2013 Suzuki Burgman 650...Your thougts?

    I'm still on the fence as to buying the 650GT or the NEW Burgman 650. I've read several comments on this forum about comparisons to the Burgman, but I haven't found anyone compare it to the NEW 2013 Suzuki Burgman. I hear Suzuki has significantly improved the Burgman from previous years. Has...
