    Beware

    Thet want the original parts for our bikes. I bought the variator belt for $100 bucks n they said it will have to be a BMW OEM part. That's a $400.00 belt I do not IF they put the OEM bulb that is a BMW light headlamp in it. But it only lasted 1 yr

    Beware

    I went to my dealer today to see about putting in a new head light. They have done it before. But this time they will ONLY use OEM parts on my 2016 C 650 GT. The high beam is out again 2 nd time that happened in 1 yr. So probably IF you go to the dealer with parts for your C 650 GT or sport you...

    My question is can i use that LED bluish bulb

    I do believe i had that same bulb go out about 1 yr ago. I need to look at the paperwork` i have on it. I have noticed that when th kick stand goes down BOTH headlamps go out. That just recently started happening. Before the head lights would stay on until i remove the key.

    That clicking noise i had

    You should have talked to the service manager n had them call BMW HQ n REPLACE the darn thing for FREE. They know it's a BIG ISSUE but i guess they are NOT interested in helping us on the BMW S we ride. IF i was mechanically inclined i would do it myself

    Rattling noise from chain

    I had that same chain tensioner noise n it got so LOUD that 1 day n the Wild West Motoplex fixed the problem. My bike is a 2016 and i had that noise starting about 3.500 miles C650GT BMW would NOT make a recall on it so it cost me a bit. But now the BIKE runs smoother n better

    2013 timing chain tensioner

    Berks I have contacted BMW Motorad USA n they told me that mine was NOT listed on the recall. I do think ALL the BMW scooters that are the C 650 GT or sport should get the recall. I asked them at my dealer about this issue and they my bike is NOT listed. Yeah these bikes are NOT cheap at all.

You have to put it on the HIGHER temp at first and then you should lower the temp by a tap on the button...
