I'm in SoCal, and I commuted with the C400 (until it self destructed). With the traffic, I hardly ever go above 75mph. I had no prob doing 75mph for an hour in traffic on the C400. It's a big scoot already, compared to kymco 250/beverly 350s, etc.

You sir, are a lucky man. I did not purchase a used warranty, and my scoot left me stranded on the side of the freeway. Even with that knowledge, Motorrad NA refused to assist with an engine repair at only 7400mi. It was a fantastic bike when it ran.

I'm a huge fan of 300-400cc scoots, just like you, and I'm 2.5 decadess less well-aged as you. Today, a retiree and I pushed up the c400 up a truck ramp and he (who rides mostly R50/R60s) was shocked how heavy the scooter was. I'm on a BV400 now, and moving forward, I'll probably be trying the...

This is exactly what my indy mechanic said. However he meant it as: "what do you expect with a cylinder cylinder 350cc motor going 7K rpm for an hour at a time?" Not in terms of a newish 1300GS

I offered the indy the job of tearing down the top, and he doesn't even wanna do it lol. Just told me to sell. He's repaired my Brutale and other bikes for years, I trust him when he says it's not worth the time. also searched for any video of tearing the top down, and found this of...

is it normal for dealerships to take 1.5 mo to diagnose an issue? Also, have you tried to buy extended warranty after this faulty computer?

Appreciate the comment. So, after @wspollack 's post, I was feeling pretty lost but did go to the nearby moto indy, whose fam owns multiple C650 (trynna sell me his pops for $5K lol I might just pull the trigger; gramps is 85 and retired), and he said the exact same thing: find a used motor. But...

posting for posterity: < 10K mi, '19 C400X, "supposedly" catastrophic engine failure: bad camshaft causing complete loss of compression. (in quotes because I don't trust the local dealership mechanics to know wtf they're doing, since it took 'em over 2 months to diagnose this, etc.)

^ thanks. They denied any form of assistance due to time out of warranty. Probably cause I'm the 3rd owner as well... Now what to do w/ this China POS...

I just want to thank you for pushing me towards this path for solution. After a few days, I heard back from Motorrad: I just re-read the email from the stealership, and the total repair bill is closer to $1900 including the fuel pump. I'm going to opt out of the fuel pump, and see how much...

Right? Why a new fuel pump if the camshaft failed, and why no timing chain/belt? How does a camshaft fail at less than 10K mi? Also, I checked on alibaba, a new Loncin 350cc motor is less than $1K. You think I should to ask them to escalate this to BMW HQ?

did you ever get this diagnosed, friend?

I like Remus on this bike much more because of the angular design

thanks for the pricing breakdown. The tool is $330 new in the US, resell is ~$200, so it'd be to $130 to get a few TFT graphical screens (since I don't have heated grips.) Maybe relative to your bike, it's not an expensive mod, but my scoot was < US$4K, and $130 is many many gallons of gas. I...

replying to my own Q lol. Per folks on ADVrider, motoscan can't change TFT... only GS100

Here to ask the same Q. I'm not buying a GS-911 just for 2 new speedos (that I really, REALLY want...) That Phad motor guy in Bangkok wants 200 euros to remote program the ECU, which includes the new tft screen/speedos. Also a non-option for me...

Thanks for this tip. I happen to have lots of C2032s, putting an extra in the scoot.

Uhhhhmmm it’s literally on Remus: https://remususa.com/remus-rs-racing-machined-aluminium-endcap-black-coated-stainless-steel-black-no-ece-approval-44773-100165us?srsltid=AfmBOopNLOkNih8Yp8lRo_v3OO7KIMBe7kKEF9yu9kIs5Mhd2Ul4JcIo

Hi all, I'm "in need" (j/k, I don't "need" one, I'm just lusting) of the Remus slip-on, but USA vendors are stating: "CARB:This product is not CARB Legal and not for sale in California" Has any Californian been able to buy one (and get fitted, or fit it on yourself) since... '19?
