    Michelin Power Shift

    Has anyone tried these new tyres? They seem to have replaced the Pilot Roads with these “shifty” tyres. Name is funny, given the scooter connotations.

    BMW Doncaster

    BMW Doncaster are not geared up to service C650 transmission! (drat) I was suprised to learn this after 3d wait. They have charged me A$650 for a major service including valve check but somehow excluding belt-roller-slider replacement (!) Never again. Let them service coppers' 1250GSes

    When you think of upgrading from a C650, what bikes you consider?

    What I mean is not “add another bike” but “get rid of C650 and use this instead”

    something happened

    Something happened while i was aggressively rolling on at high speed. My Sport was behaving its best, super smooth and powerful everywhere…I was super happy and excited, and suddenly, in a blink…torque stared to float, power lost, hesitant to go over 100kmh. I made it home OK but have had...

    Gday all today is the day when i say goodbye to my adventures with J. Costa variators. The one i had installed, has has a fair run of a 20000km and the rollers are buggered as supposed to be. i have had 25g rollers installed as they do not make heavier. i wish they were more like 25.5g but not...

    C650 Sport front fork upgrade?

Any existing off-the-shelf upgrades? Has anybody gone down...

    Windscreens for C650 Sport?

    Anybody updated the windscreen on the Sport, and how did it go? I am poised to buy a Puig VTech Tour 9015H but dunno if it is worth it? The best so far is stock in the middle position, but still windy…

    Gear Racing shock for C650 Sport

    G’day Rollers, has any of you tried or even heard of this product? https://www.gears-racing.com/products/h2-bm105r It looks a better product than the single-adjustment YSS or Malossi aka Paioli, or the Matrix with no spring (Use your OEM spring, they say) I am tempted…my rear shock is too jumpy...

    Victory Vision 800 as an upgrade?

    I know it’s probably too late, Victory has folded, and it is not exactly a video but to raise awareness… when I think of what I would have as an upgrade when the time comes to wean off C650s, only one answer comes to mind… bloody Polaris, please release Vision 800 ...

    Anyone ridden a Kymco MyRoad 700 ?

    Just a wild idea to ask... I heard about that megascoot, and it is not available in my country Australia. Any of you seen, tried, ridden or even heard of Kymco MyRoad 700? Since it is same company that makes engine for C650, my guess they tried to outdo BMW in that one. So I am very looking to...

    Normal stock acceleration rpms?

    Question for 2016+ C650 Sport model owners. As it is hard as fúck to peer into those tiny rpms petals while giving it a whip, I have to ask, in hope someone had installed a proper digital rpm meter. What is the top rpm when doing full throttle off the stop? Stock transmission and exhaust...

    GPR Furore evo 4 on C650 Sport 2017

    My small review. TL;DR = great. Have bought from motogpgun on Ebay, shipping took a while but about a month later arrived in the land of Oz. Shipped from Italy. Looked very nicely packed, and nice labels and installation guide gave me that warm feeeling like a family-owned italian pride product...

    Question for C650GT owners

    G’day folks, I have test-ridden a GT version and have a specific question that I hope someone could answer. I am a tall person and prefer my legs fully stretched forward during long rides. However that “rider back support” pillow interferes, and unlike on the Sport edition, I am not able to...

    Let me pour some euro goodness on ya

    Have anyone ridden this model, Gilera GP800? Impressions? I hear they are winning races when turboed. I had tried Aprilia SRV850, too porky, vibrates a lot, top-heavy and open chain, made no sense in the city.
