    2020 C650GT cranks vigorously but no ignition

    My bike no longer starts. It was fine until this week. I turn the key and get the usual display. I retract the kickstand and pull in both brake levers. I press the starter and the bike cranks as usual but there is no hint of ignition. There is plenty of gas in the tank. I examined the fuse...

    Center stand just started grounding often - 2020 C650GT

    Two weeks ago I had my rear tire replaced at a non-BMW shop. Since then, the center stand has been grounding often in turns and over obstacles. The new tire is the same as the old one, and the suspension preload is still at "3". When I park the bike on the sidestand and look, the centerstand...

    Thoughts about my Corbin seat after about 4000 miles

    I've had Russell "Day-Long" saddles on four bikes over the years, and loved them. But I didn't want to be without my 2020 GT650C for the weeks necessary to ship the stock seat to Russell, wait for them to build the new seat on the stock pan, and have the new seat shipped back. So I bought a...

    Move handlebar closer to rider

    Has anyone successfully relocated their C650GT handlebar a little closer to the rider? I used "Barbacks" like these on my Burgman to move the bars about an inch up and and inch back, but I'm concerned about the lengths of the hoses and wires on the C650GT.

    Are any of the C650GT fuses switched?

    I'm installing a Denali Powerhub II, which requires a switched power lead. Rather than cut into a wire, I'd like to use a fuse tap.

    Parking brake activated while I was riding!

    I was driving 45 MPH on my 2020 C650GT when the power sagged and the engine began to labor. I pulled over and found that the parking brake activated with the kickstand up. Fortunately, the rear wheel didn't lock up while I was riding. I am pretty certain that nothing on the road surface hit any...

    Conspicuity bang for the buck

    I put as much 3M SOLAS hi-viz tape as possible on my helmet. I routinely perch the helmet on my handlebars (see photo) when parked. I've often noticed that the helmet is highly noticeable from a block or more distance. Some riders' sense of style will keep them from doing this, but it's cheap...

    How do you lift a C650GT onto the centerstand?

    I just traded my Burgman 650 for a 2020 C650GT, and I can't figure out how to centerstand the new scooter. The Burgman was very easy, and over the years I've been OK with my 3 GoldWings and a whole bunch of other bikes. When I put my right foot on the C650GT centerstand, the grab rail is so far...
