    Schuberth C5 To Replace an Arai Signet X, Fits A Long Oval Head

    I did not feel the challenge doing the Cardo Spirit install, my first ever comms install. I only had to move the boom mic to the spot above the left cheek clip, it was on my mouth too often when was below the cushion clip, and also in the way of the wind. Upgraded to thicker JBL speakers with no...

    Schuberth C5 To Replace an Arai Signet X, Fits A Long Oval Head

    Another long-headed rider here. My choice was HJC RPHA 90, should be on par with the Schuberth which are not sold here in Oz.

    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 ...

    Respect the Scooter

    Guys, you have to replace the heavy dual exhaust can with something lighter to really appreciate what a C650 Sport can do in corners. I thought it is only for sound or some more ponies, but I saw quite an improvement with the handling and leaning agility as well, unexpectedly! The stock one is a...

    Squeaky noise

    How many miles on the odo? It’s likely time to replace the clutch, before you also need a new bell.

    2016 C650 Sport. Need suspension advice for two up riding.

    Less inertial impact because higher toughness (preload) arrests the motion sooner = less bottoming out

    2016 C650 Sport. Need suspension advice for two up riding.

    #6 preset on OEM works best for me, solo rider 90Kg. #7 is too harsh and less preload makes it bounce more, not liking. I bought the scoot with #1 set, no wonder it was sold :) If I understand right, the more preload set, the less stroke? Anyway, it needs to be stronger against our shitty Oz...

    Harder clutch spring

    What did you use, exactly?

    Engine stalling when slowing - test idle control device?

    Check and clean the main fuse, this was my problem with same symptoms.

    Anyone ridden a Kymco MyRoad 700 ?

    Hm, three-wheeler would be fun to try on gravel roads or wet twisties. I only hope that new Noodoe got rid of PWM flicker. And whoever asked for a foot brake there?..

    I need some help

    Great. Care to share how exactly?

    My new to me 2013 C650GT is limited to 97mph indicated speed. Previously modified?

    Just for the record, stock transmission + GPR Furore Evo4 exhaust increases top speed of C650 Sport by about 10Kmh (touches 180 on odo with a bit more possible). This with baffle in ;) stock cans are "eco" = "suboptimal", as usual. Furore is homologated so I am clean before the law.

    My new to me 2013 C650GT is limited to 97mph indicated speed. Previously modified?

    I never even get to the last 3 bars, no matter what I do, with stock transmission - aside from Dr.Pulleys HiT clutch. Next year, I have plans to install J.Costa with 25g rollers (no heavier available) to get just a tad more rpms than stock. I'm actually after the smoothness and fast reaction...

    Anyone ridden a Kymco MyRoad 700 ?

    Yeah, seems inferior to C650. Especially after I have modded mine. Regarding AK550, I have had a test ride once they just came out. Underwhelmed by acceleration and ergos (I'm tall). Completely unacceptable "Noodoe" dash screen that flickers with PWM and would kill my eye in an hour. I had...

    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...

    My new to me 2013 C650GT is limited to 97mph indicated speed. Previously modified?

    It if requires lots of revs it has got lighter rollers, or tougher variator spring.

    My new to me 2013 C650GT is limited to 97mph indicated speed. Previously modified?

    This could be about "norm" for a 60hp Bike with so much wind protection, ahem resistance. You may go higher if you pay attention to the air filter (K&N) and exhaust (GPR or Arrow). My bet it is mostly exhaust that is the limiting part. When the gases expelled faster, you get more power but...

    Stop Sale: Not sure if the scoots are included

    Newer Break-Out models are OK, just add a new engine or pay the same as new engine, every 90K

    Stop Sale: Not sure if the scoots are included

    That would only leave Audi out. But clock is ticking, while competitors enjoy… We know Harleys are as clean as angels in this regard…

    Does anyone recognize this GPS mount?

    Wow. How much moolah?
