    Beware

    I actually bought my last bulbs from my car mechanic. His garage services VW and Audi. I believe the bulbs were Osram from Europe. I paid about the same as mid grade from Walmart.

    Hi everyone

    Double check your chain tensioner. If still mechanical you should upgrade to the hydraulic one.

    New C 650 GT owner- 76 yrs. young- Dave C. texas

    I’ve had two of the 2013s. I wish that wasn’t the only year for that color. It’s my understanding that 2020 was the last model year for the C650s, is the 2022 a 400?

    SOLD-GIVI C650GT Side cases and mount for sale

    Sorry, he does not, I purchased them from him 6 years ago and have been using them regularly. I believe that in Europe they were also sold under the Shad label but I believe there was only one production run as they did not sell well when introduced. By the time people realized they wanted a set...

    Using a 12V Accessory Port for a Battery Tender

    When my gps tracker was installed incorrectly and kept draining my battery I was plugging in my battery tender that way on my 2013 model. I have not had that issue with my 2019 model so I don’t know if the outlet is live with the ignition off on the gen2 version but it worked on my gen1.

    C650 GT Power socket (s)

    I had the under seat socket installed on my 2013. When I went to the dealership to get one installed on my 2019 it was not an option.

    Utopia Driver Back Rest for C650GT For Sale $100

    I loved the one I had on my 2013. I kept it when the bike got wrecked but the replacement 2019 that I bought already had a Corbin saddle on it with an off brand back support. I doesn’t work that well for me as it is designed for someone with a much thicker torso. Luckily the guy I bought it from...

    C650 GT Power socket (s)

    They were not installed on us models but there was a connector for a socket to be installed. I did have one installed in my two successive 2013s but when I finally went to get one for my 2019 it was not listed as an accessory. When the dealer looked for a 2013 listing they are no longer listed...

    Upper Right Side Trim

    I tried a product like that once, don’t remember the name. It looked great while was building up the support for the broken tab but after curing it completely came off when I tried to press the little metal clip back on the tab.

    Upper Right Side Trim

    It would be pricey and have to be painted but you can check with your BMW dealer. Some plastic is available but with changing colors every model year most of what’s available is unpainted white.

    windshield and speedometer problems

    I’ve seen many similar posts on this forum. I can’t help but wonder if it has any relation to which ‘version’ of ecu/os is installed. On my second 2013 model the gps tracking unit was installed incorrectly and kept draining the battery. I must have gone through 6 batteries in 18 months but never...

    Fantastic Tracker - Monimoto 7

    I originally had a Cobra recreational vehicle on the second bike. Unfortunately it was a 3g device and was useless after 3g service was discontinued. I didn’t want to spend the extra money for Cobra’s automobile tracker because it has a lot of features that are not useful on a cvt scooter.

    Will a 2018 seat fit a 2023 C400GT?

    Ask your dealership if the part numbers are the same for both bikes.

    2023 GT model in the U.S. ?

    I believe that 2020 is the last model year in the states. I don’t know if they discontinued them completely.

    Windscreens.. do you prefer to look over or through.

    I would prefer to look over the windscreen but have a fear of eating the top of it in the event of an impact or other forced stop. If I have it in a lower position my attention is constantly on the top of the windscreen to the detriment of paying attention to the rest of the road and riding...

    Engine stalling when slowing - test idle control device?

    Is the oxygen sensor the same as the idle control sensor? If not then check the vacuum lines going to the idle control sensor. Cracks in them will lead to stalling.

    Fantastic Tracker - Monimoto 7

    After having two 650 gts stolen from my yard I at first was using a hidden air tag. But now that it’s easy to detect them I purchased a Monimoto 7 and hid it and moved the air tag to an easily found location as a decoy.

    Long-Distance Touring on a BMW Scooter – Is It Feasible?

    Not as long as Gerardo’s trip but I circumnavigated the state of Oklahoma for a photographic scavenger hunt with my new 2013 C650Gt in the summer of 2013. Just don’t ride westbound on hiway 412 due to the semis interrupting the constant northerly wind.
