Yes, this happened to me 18 months ago. One dealership tried twice to fix the problem (for free) but each time it failed. The next dealer fixed the problem but it cost me £120 for the pleasure. Which I thought was a little over the top. Not had it pop out since. I ride a 650GT which I have owned...

I got the job done! To make life easier I marked top dead centre with a marker and applied tape to keep the bulb from falling out whilst clipping the spring clips in place. Took a little while, but soon, like a Jedi I had mastered the art. May the Bulbs be with us...Always! iBob

My bulb went this morning. I have fumbled the old one out and ordered a generic H7 12v on Amazon. I have practiced on clipping the retaining springs in place and now feel confident that when the bulb arrives I will be able to do the job. Thanks for taking the time to make this post. Cheers, Bob

I scraped mine on a bend that happened to have a dip slap bang on the apex. The rear end bottomed out and down touched the center stand. Shi£ the life out of me!

The same thing is happening with my 2017 GT. On cold, she runs like crap (No stalling) for a wee while then once warmed up it's not an issue. I will mention this to the guys at BMW on my next service. Cheers, Bob

Welcome, David! Like the others, I too want to see some photos when she's done! Cheers, Bob

I get plenty of looks when I'm riding my GT, so it can't be that boring! iB

I'm here!

I'm the mirror image. I've gone from a R1200 GS Watercooled to the 650GT. I loved the GS, but not practical for most of the urban riding I do. The GT is a fun tool to own and I'm sure we will have many miles together... GOOD LUCK!! Bob

Thanks for all the great advice! tupperware? You mean all the vinyl bits? Anyone know the torque settings for the rear wheel nuts? Cheers, Bob

It took a few months, but now she is here! Got any cleaning tips for the rear end? It looks mighty cramped in there. :) Cheers, Bob

I'm all over it! Thanks!! Bob

I'm going from a 1200GS TE to the Scoot. I've had a blast on her for the last two years, but with changes to work and the need to commute in urban environments the GS was too much like hard work. I don't regret giving up the GS. It has been the best bike I have ever owned and I will always look...

No, because I live in a country park and the roads leading to my cottage resemble the battlefields of France in World War One :D

Hello all, My name is Bob and I live and work in London, UK. I placed my order today for a new 650 GT, but I've been told it won't be ready to pick for at least 4 to 6 weeks! Not sure why there is such a delay, but I'm in no rush. The extra time will be used for looking through this forum for...
