Hey Gerardo, Glad you're enjoying your CGT. And, yup, mechanical expertise can be found all over the place around here.

I have 2 bikes that are white. Getting them cleaned up is no problem. With white you have a blank canvas to stripe, etc., but I personally like the look of the bike as is. (Surprised Skutorr didn't suggest they throw in Dr. Pulley Sliders, too.;))

Yeah, wow, never realized there were so few in NY state. A little surprised Max didn't expand further west.

I second Lee's comment, for sure. FWIW...My guess is that your original thoughts are correct; the set-up tech missed something for whatever reason.

Ha...That is an old post. Maybe I've been married to long but I remember the bike more than the gal.

My daughter had the same fear. She spent a fair amount of time in empty parking lots just stopping, turning, figure eights, etc. Now she's a pro. FWIW....Dropping your bike is not mandatory;) and may not happen at all. If it drops, it drops. I have lost count of how many times I have gone down...

Welcome aboard, tensixmom. Be patient. Practice in parking lots. If this is your first PTW, it may take you a little while to get really comfortable. Think about going to your local BMW motorcycle club meeting. It is great to have another gal in the group.

Now that is one wild story. This is a fun hobby:D

Yeah, I agree. It looks "customized for comfort". I have never tried soft hand guards, but they look like they would work great, especially with heated grips!

Ok, so for those that have been on the forum for awhile you've seen this picture before, but it's that time of year for me to post again. The story is that my wife took the picture a few years ago as I was shoveling a small path to get out of the driveway. Riding all year round takes some...

Hey Jeff, You'll get the weight figured out once you've moved it around a couple dozen times.;) Welcome to the BMW C class world.

Hey Ben, Did you check your oil recently? If so, are you sure you got the dip stick perfectly back in place? If not, oil can end up in all kinds of weird places on the bike. Don't ask how I know.:rolleyes:

That's good news. I have to admit, when I saw the thread headline I was thinking you hit something. Glad it was just a minor adjustment.

I'm betting you'll really like the Kaoko.

I'm with Bill. Sounds like you are a candidate for NC700x DCT. It has storage where the gas tank should be. Good power to weight and torque. And has a strong reliability reputation. You may or may not like the wind protection or the ergos, though. Kinda like comparing a cruiser (which the GT is...

Hmmmm...How many touring scooters total? Probably not too many. The Beemer is at the top of the class in its category (with a couple others). When I go to events of this sort I see very very few scooters. A couple years ago I was in Orlando at a moto event and among a sea of PTWs, the only...

Hey Claudio, Welcome to the forum. Post some pictures when your bike is delivered and be sure to fill us in on what you think.

I have never lost a phone off any bikes but on my Ural ram mount I now use the elastic "holder" thing pictured below. I can't imagine a phone coming loose with the ram and that thing. Costs less than 4 bucks.

Well, I'm from downunder Canada. Does that count?:D

All kinds of good stuff here. They look good and supply that "just a little bit more" that might be needed, especially if traveling 2up.
