Highest Km's on c600

[Clinton Jones]

Hi All,

I am curious to know what KM's / Miles are out there on the C600 trouble free? Who has the highest?

Regards,
Clinton

I'll open the bidding here but I know I'm nowhere near highest; I have over 6500km. No issues. Recalls were done before I purchased.

Almost the same at 8,500 since I bought in April and recalls done before delivery. Had no issues mechanically and no breakdowns of any kind.

23800 miles now, purchased with 18k in April 2015. No issues whatsoever...

I have 15 000 km's but just purchased it. According to service history, no issues as yet. I paid around $5000 (R63000) for it. Its a 2013 model. Is this a good deal or did I over pay?

21000 miles = 34000 kilometers since 2018 when I bought it used with 1,960 miles on the clock. So on average 2200 miles (3600 km) per year. I use it mostly for errands and going to the gym.

90000 kms soon - but on C650 Sport not C600.
Issues are mainly with the clutch (The original was slipping from 26K kms so I have switched to Dr. Pulley HiT clutch; had to re-tune it many times to work out what springs work best).
If this bike had T-Max like wet clutch it would be priceless (to me).
Was surprising everyone today with quick starts and strong pull on wet rainy road off the lights nothing to shift or go wrong when shifting between the traffic lights.
Michelin Pilot Road 4 are the best tyres ever! They do not notice if asphalt is wet or not Pirellis Diablo Rosso III Scooter are not so great, and need to be "worn in" carefully when new... Michelins you just ride as per normal

We also prefer Michelin's Pilot tyres over the others. There we couple of Metzeller's Feel Free series, however quality issues were noticed in the past so we stay with M. With let say "soft" riding style we can do around 20000 km on one set. Fuel consumption usually below 50 mpg. Regarding fuel consumption some good data are on www.fuelly.com/motorcycle/bmw/c650g.

Been riding on Michelin Power Shift lately and they are simply incredible, even better than Road 4. At first I was skeptical seeing how large the slots in the protector are, but once the front was also replaced, suddenly the bike is like glued, even to wet asphalt. Simply incredible.
