How's it goin', everyone my name is john from spotswood newjersey! Nice to be a part of the forums! I'm not an owner just yet. I visit the local BMW dealership in Metuchen nj , and was very impress with the GT 650. I will be purchasing soon after I extend the garage.

Welcome aboard.

Your guess is right ..! The dealer in central nj is one of the largest BMW motorcycle store's in jersey. I didn't see any 600 models at all ..! Only 650's..!

MJ and John.....

Glad you signed on. Caution about those C600 guys....They have a secret handshake and a hazing for new owners.

 

[Nutt113]

So, I'm guessing most dealers these days do not have c600's on the floor any more?

Greeting from Thailand, just pick up a last C600 Sport from dealer in Bangkok last Friday. They also don't sell anymore of the C600 here. I'm the lucky last...cheers

Glad you joined up, Nutt113. Looks like you got one of those black C600s. That is a favorite of several folks on this forum.

Finally got round to signing up - almost 2 years with my c650GT, using it to run into Central London most days for work, but not much else as yet. Only real hassle has been an erratic OBC for the first 6 months which was finally solved through a software update and failed switchgear which was quickly fixed.

Welcome aboard. I also have a black C600. Be careful because the black bikes are a lot faster than the other models.

Say what? Sounds like you'll be a great contributor. Glad you're on board .

Good Morning Everyone. I am just waiting for my new 2013 BMW C600 Sport to arrive! My Christmas present to myself! I live in Kingston, Ontario, Canada and it is unusually warm here so I think I am going to go for a little ride today.😊

 

[justscootin]

Wow another person from Ontario, if I am not mistaken you are the second one. There are other scooters out here in Ontario but none on this site. We are about 3 hours apart but maybe we will run into each other one day. Enjoy your ride

Hi Joe:

I just purchased a 2013 c600 sport after having a Burgman 400 abs. It is being delivered today. Did you find the transition from burgman to bmw similar? Any advice?

Thank you, Scooter2

 

[Scooter2]

Thanks Justscootin! Just wondering if it took you long to adjust to your scooter. I had a burgman 400 previously and am hoping the transition won't be much different.

 

[justscootin]

No transition at all just twist and go. This is the first bike I had since 2000. I picked this one up in October 2012 so I was off a bike for 12 years. The big difference was no clutch and the turn signals being the jap style compared to the BMW left and right thumb toggles. Yes this handles fantastic. (who delivers a bike on Sundays)

[Scooter2]

Bmw Toronto! I couldn't believe it either!

 

[grey.hound]

Welcome scooter2. I have had my c600 for about a month. It took all of a couple of minutes to adjust from my Aprilia 250 that only weighs 320 pounds vs the 550 of the BMW. I think you will be just fine.

 

[SteveADV]

Hey S2....Welcome to this gang of scoundrels. The more you ride your C600, the more you will want to spend time in the saddle.
