I wouldn't hold my breath, re "another year or two." My local back-road goofing-off day trips are all 150 - 250 miles, typically in VERY rural settings, wherever I happen to wander (often on roads that I'm taking just because I've never been on them before). I have to fill up with gas once or...

@Tron : By the way, this is what my personal YT Settings page looks like:

Click on the Auto-translate rectangle area just below that French (auto-generated) area. See the pick under 2) in my post above (after clicking on the Subtitle line -- see pic under item 1)).

For many videos, YouTube will generate subtitles in a language of your choice. That includes this one, and here's what you need to do: 1) Click on the gear, i.e., the settings icon, which brings up this screen. Then, click on the Subtitles/CC (Closed Captioning) icon: 2) That brings up...

I'd say that it's possible ... but not at all practical. I believe that the larger TFT is/was an option on the '24 or '25 GT. To change over from the smaller TFT you'd need: the bigger TFT; the plastic trim piece(s) that surround and support it; and possibly a new windscreen. (I'm not sure...

In the it’s-a-small-world department, one of my granddaughters is currently doing a semester abroad in Dingle (County Kerry), at Sacred Heart. She’s enjoying herself immensely.

Welcome. What do you ride?

Any of these work for you? If you have a nearby Cycle Gear: https://www.cyclegear.com/tires/bridgestone-battlax-bt-012-rear-scooter-tire?facet_ids%5B0%5D=1731&sku_id=10184801 If not: https://ridedirect.com/products/tire-scooter-rear-160-60r15-67h...

If that works for you, more power to you. For me: 1) I was concerned how close that spinning sensor would be, and whether a change of brake pads might affect that clearance. 2) In care you weren't aware of this, eventually -- after a year or so researching this issue -- I got actual BMW...

Welcome from New York State, i.e., across the pond. One of my granddaughters is currently doing a semester abroad at Sacred Heart in Dingle (Co. Kerry), and enjoying it immensely. I'm a C 400 GT owner, never had a 650 Beemer (although I did own a couple of Burgman 650s), but from my reading of...

I’m surprised. Did you try your entering your VIN at both of those sites?

These are the two VIN-breakdown sites that I found most useful (when I needed to determine the build date of my '23 C 400 GT): https://bimmer.work/ https://www.mdecoder.com/

Nope, I had no problem with the underseat strap during the 2,000-mile trip I made with that setup. But as I mentioned, I had that strap fairly loose, for (unneeded) backup purposes, while the rack-attached straps were very tight and did all the real work, in terms of holding the bag in place.

In my case, yep, one of the straps from the Saddlemen is going under the seat, but that's just sort of a back-up. The main holding system are its other straps through open areas in the BMW luggage rack. Take a look at https://billanddot.com/C400GT/#S-67 and the next two pics in my C 400 GT...

Actually, my manual says initially after one year, and then every two years: So I'd go ahead and have the brake fluid changed (or do it yourself), based on the manual, and given that the fluid is hygroscopic (i.e., is subject to absorbing moisture).

Ah, I see. Sorry I misunderstood your question. Regarding those smaller bags, like your current one: I got nuthin'. Have you considered adding a top case (in which case I recommend the adjustable-size Shad 58x or 59x)?

If I understand your question correctly -- that is, if you're looking for a bag to lay across the passenger seat -- I have two recommendations: https://www.aerostich.com/products/medium-motofizz-camping-seat-bag https://www.saddlemen.com/tr3300de-deluxe-rack-bag-universal-1 The first is the...

1) What @Ceesie76 said above. 2) Does the message say anything about not riding the bike, or "safe to ride," or some other information like that? 3) Do you have a BMW dealer you can travel to, or tow the bike to? 4) Just out of curiosity, what year is your C 400 GT, and how many miles on it...

Enjoy your new ride. Nothing particularly wrong with a Harley. A lot of posers, of course, but that's true for a lot of brands. I've never owned one, either, but I did rent a couple on vacations, for enjoying local destinations. And I owned a couple of huge baggers, over the years. - A Honda...

1) Mike, I'm sorry about all your travails. 2) FWIW -- worth something? nothing? -- I have this routine that I do, every time I'm about to take off ... first thing in the day, after a rest stop, after lunch, that sort of thing. A) Go to the back of the scoot, and check that the latch is...
