I really wanted to use Mobil 1 as I use that in everything else I have, but they don't list JASO MA certification. not that I know what that is or if it would even matter as i'm sure BMW is just using an oil they use in their other bikes. (JASO MA has to something do with wet clutches which we...

Nope, this was the BMW Motorrad 15w-50 Semi Synth oil. This isn't the dealer I got it from, but it shows you their price.. $18 a quart is the dealer trying to rip you off with high markups... Third one down is what I got... MAX BMW Motorcycles - OIL AND OTHER FLUIDS/LUBRICANTS

Ok, so 28 gram is right around 15% lighter and is probably the preferred size if you are not changing the clutch? Wondering if I am going to lose any top end with that much reduction in weigh...

I was quoted $280 as well. Its just an oil change. I just bought 4 quarts of the oil and filter at the dealer and changed it myself. Its pretty easy. Filter was $15 Oil was $10 per quart.

Is everyone getting the 28 gram rollers? How many grams are the stock ones?

Ok, sounds like I know what I'm doing then! I loved them in my old scooter. Does anyone know if there a place in the US to get them?

How many of you folks have done the Sliders? I really interested in doing those but wonder about shortening the belt life...

Can you see over the windshield fine?

I'm using a Shad 29. ($100) Mostly because I had it from my old scooter. All I added was the shad rear plate for $65. Its not going to be appealing to the fit and finish crowd. Sometimes I wish I had a larger top box, but I'm torn as to what size as I don't want something too larger for the...

For the Original Poster, Did you get it back yet? Does it seem back to normal?

What's the maximum sidewall pressure on the front tire?

Scooter Model: 2013 C600 Sport Front Tire PSI: 36 Rear Tire PSI: 42 Current Miles: 2500 Tire Mfg: Pirelli Tire Model: Diablo Sport (Stock) Temp Zone: 40 to 90 As a side note, has anyone tried running even higher pressures? on my old scooter it called for 30psi front and rear. the maximum...

I have had something happen like this the other day too. I thought it was muffler related as I removed the baffle in the akrapovik muffler, but after reading this I think its related to the short start and stop. After removing the baffle I started up the scooter and just to hear if it seemed...

Ok, so I finally conquered the stupid baffle. The baffle got mangled pretty good getting it out, but its out and it not much louder so it will stay out. I will add one tip for other folks attempting this. It appears that after you take out the set screw that the nut left over on the inside has...

Slightly louder is fine with me, as long as its not super loud. I suspect it wont get super loud unless I remove the cat, But without a power commander I'm not sure I want to do that anyways..

How'd you get yours out? vicegrips?

How did you guys get the baffle out? I have removed the rubber plug and removed the set screw. The baffle is just stuck in there. The outside of the baffle is looking like hell now as I have been prying at it with pliers for hours. I even managed to get a hook down inside and pulled like heck at...

I always keep my windshield in the highest position, any other position creates way too much turbulence and wind. Even more than my sport bikes with small windshields.

Wow, that baffle is really hard to get out.. I'll have to try again this weekend

I added the MRA X-Creen to mine, seems to be similar to the Laminar Lip. It did bring the air from the face to the top of my helmet and did reduce some turbulence, but I still get a fair amount of buffeting on my chest at times. I'm 6 feet tall.
