    Well, last year I bought 2016 with 250 miles on the clock, and the radio... During the first service I paid few dollars to remove the radio, replacement of the right storage lid (the radio was neatly installed there) inclusive.

    Buying C650GT

    My inseam is 32 (in jeans size) and I have no problems. I can touch the ground with both feet, but not flat. In most times this allows me for easy balancing the bike, however at certain times (slope, dirt roads, etc) firmly stable position is required. If such need arises, I move a tad to the...

    What made you choose BMW over Burgman?

    Well, I had numerous motorbikes and few scooters. 2016 or newer BMW C is the most comfortable, and handles the best as well. Second place, in my opinion, was Honda Silverwing, Burgman would be the last. Mind you, I have not tried Yamaha, Piaggio or Aprilla, nor do I have desire to try. I love...

    Hello from SW USA

    Horn replacement

    The OEM horn is suboptimal, something more powerful is a justifiable, and a desired, safety upgrade.

    Horn rep

    The OEM horn is suboptimal, something more powerful is a justifiable, and a desired, safety upgrade. I had some positive experience with installing horns on my BMW motorcycles hence a VW/Audi low frequency horn (VW part nr 18G951221) is a personal preference. They pop up on ebay for ~$20, in...

    Replace front light bulb

    It is not necessary to remove the right panel in title to replace a burned out H7. I was able to access the bulb through the front opening above the wheel. It was a bit tricky, it took me approximately 5 minutes.

    Newbie can't drive on the lawn

    This is most likely associated with the traction control feature that BMW generously provided on newr models. You may turn it off (using the computer control on the left grip: go to SETUP, press and hold until you see CLOCK, press repeatedly until you see ASC, at that time you may turn it OFF)...

    Blind spot mirror for the C650GT

    I just installed aspherical OEM mirrors: the blind spot is totally eliminated. I can see a vehicle passing me (not to often, mind you) quite clearly with my peripheral vision while it is still visable in the mirror. Brilliant. I had prior experiences with these type of mirrors with my German...
