    FOR SALE: GOODIES FOR BMW C 650 GT (all years)

    FYI to anyone interested, the Utopia backrest is very nice and easy to install. I had one on my Helix clone and I got one for my 2013 650gt. I made sure to keep it when the 2013 was totaled and will use it if I decide to not keep the custom seat on my 2019. It definitely helps on longer rides to...

    Two bolts to remove. Three mounting positions on support. If not if most rearward position try it there first. Otherwise there are two holes in the seat upholstery to fill/cover.

    Tall windshield

    2023 C400GT Delivery

    My dealership likes to Facebook post when a customer buys a new bike. Had one pick up his new C400 that I did not know they had received in Jan. Maybe he was able to order it because in December they had none.

    DIY TPMS Change

    I did not trust myself to do it correctly. My dealership here would not plug my tire for me. Had to go to a small independent tire shop in a nearby suburb to get it done as the chain stores would not touch a motorcycle tire. If it happens again I’ll try it myself.

    When I misplaced one of the keys to my first 650Gt I had to provide the dealership with a copy of my title for them to fax to Germany to get a key from there.

    For Sale 2019 BMW C650GT $7,900 - Sun City Arizona

    Hello, I’m interested due to an idiot running a red light and then leaving when he saw me get up. Luckily just bruises, but I’m waiting on insurance to process claim (bent forks on a 2013 so repair costs = total).

    Last month an asshole on a pickup ran a red light. I slammed on the brakes in time for him to not hit me but I hit his rear tire and flipped bike out from under me. Almost stopped so bruises only but he took off when I got up. Tupperware wasn’t too bad but forks bent from the twisting impact...
