Today, My Used 2022 C 400 GT Was Replaced By BMW With A Brand New 2023 C 400 GT. Free. What's In Your Warranty? If those statements pique your curiosity, and you have some free time, here's the tale, in chronological order. Note that it starts LAST year, almost a year and a half ago. [Note...

Edelweiss "Ultimate Alps Tour," July 2023 I got home a couple of weeks ago from having completed this tour: https://www.edelweissbike.com/en/touren/?c=CUA This is an eight-riding-day (or nine-riding-day, in my case*) romp through the Alps, with only a tiny bit of duplication with the...

Okay, coming home yesterday (about a 100-mile goofing-off run, with a lunch stop in the middle), the bike seemed to be a tiny bit louder under acceleration, and running maybe 10F° hotter than usual on the coolant temp display. And at times -- I got stuck in a traffic jam near home, because a...

I've posted a separate video or two before, but I thought maybe it would be better to start a single thread for videos. So I'll start with one I made during a goofing-off day yesterday on my '22 C 400 GT. I did a loop (clockwise), dropping in for a visit to some friends in Poland (that's the...

I thought I'd liven things up a bit on the forum, with a 400 video, for those interested in that scoot or just really bored. In any case, with the weather warming up around here (eastern upstate NY), and a front moving in from the south, I went for my first northerly goofing-off day-trip of the...

Admin(s): I am aware that this site has picture-size limitations lower than most forums. That said, I have successfully posted pictures in many threads since joining a year or so ago, as long as I resized them before posting, to make sure they were well under, say, 1 MB. However, today I tried...

As I alluded to a couple of days ago (in https://www.bmw-scooters.com/index.php?threads/garmin-zumo-xt.2599/, a thread about powering a Garmin), I was working on adding Skene Lights' "Photon Boosters" to the fender of my '22 C 400 GT: I've now finished that work, including the documentation...

Last fall, at about the end of my riding season, I put up a video of my third (and probably final) top-speed test run on the C 400 GT that I took delivery of in June 2022. This was on a long downhill run, with a GoPro Hero9 Black capturing the bike's speed with its 18Hz GPS chip and recording...

I haven't finished watching this yet, but I thought I'd post this new video for those interested, so you can get right into it if you have time now:

Just a little something for those who, like me, check for new posts on the forum. I went for a ride yesterday, a 160-mile loop, on the C 400 GT, with my wife riding pillion: I now have 3,700+ miles on the scoot, since taking delivery in June. Here are a couple of highlight reels of the...

I took delivery of a new C 400 GT back in June. I've posted about my adding Skene lights in the rear (and some other mods, such as external USB and Powerlet outlets, a garage-door opener, as well as a few other lesser mods). My question now is about adding additional lighting in the front...

I got my new C 400 GT in June, and have been doing just local day trips on it (although I have a multi-day trip coming up, later this month). Absolutely lovin' the scoot. I downsized from a vintage 650 Burgman Exec, and while that scoot had more power, storage, and acceleration, I don't really...

Just out of curiosity, at the tail end of a day trip last week I decided to test the 0-60 acceleration of my '22 C 400 GT. Here's the result (based on my GoPro Hero9 Black's GPS chip, and my ability to start the post-processing timer at the same time the noise level goes up): My test seems to...

Does anyone have any suggestions for getting the front wheel of a C 400 GT off the ground, as if for changing the tire? Actually, I just want to make it easier for myself to spin the wheel, as I'm still investigating possible ways to add an external TPMS (see my thread...

In case anyone's interested, looking for luggage suggestions, that sort of thing: I ordered a Saddleman "TR3300DE Tactical Deluxe Rack Bag" recently, and it arrived about a week ago. Here it is, mounted on my C 400 GT, ready for a road trip of about a week-and-a-half that I have planned...

In case anyone was wondering -- and this came up a time or two, regarding the 650 Burgman, on that forum -- I was out for a solo day trip yesterday. In looking at and processing some of the video today (too hot to ride now, IMO, anyway), I noted some decent lean angles for my new scoot (in a...

In preparation for a multi-week trip -- and, you know, you can never have too much storage space -- I bought and recently installed Wunderlich's Business Bag - "Tank Bag" Style: https://www.wunderlichamerica.com/BMW_C400_GT_Business_Bag_Tank_Bag_Style Yeah, like most Wunderlich products: -...

In my 1,500 miles of riding on my new C 400 GT, I've mostly settled on displaying the My Vehicle screen (first screen under that, also called My Vehicle). This gives a lot of at-a-glance info, such as odometer, desired trip meter, oil temp, etc. That is, it seems to me to be the most...

Yesterday I completed two mods to my 2022 C 400 GT, done essentially at the same time because both required the removal of most of the rear bodywork. The second farkle (the first is my post...
