Nevermind. Found a thread I responded to last year.

I would chase down installing the grips but the heated seat to me is a gimmick. I used to have a quad that I rode year round and I never recall having a cold butt even with temps into the teens. Plus when it's on, it's the same sensation to me that I get on a hot summer day (I think they call it...

Glad you like it. Enjoy your riding and keep the rubber side down.

Yup. It shakes a little bit but hell its mostly plastic up front so you can only make plastic so rigid. I am really happy with my set up.

Make sure to get the right mount size for the bar you are using. But it’s very high quality. I originally found one that was 3D printed but the problem was when you tightened it down, it would flex and then it was really hard to get the Garmin to snap into the mount. This one is aluminum and...

So did you use this SAE plug to be able to easily move the Garmin to another vehicle? Otherwise, the plug and wires are ugly. Maybe put window tint on the back side of the wind screen where it mounts to the scooter and then all you will see of the wires is through the vent. I tried to use the...

Hey Bill, I am going to assume that you got the coolant leak fixed???

Johng, can you provide a few pictures of your setup? Did you get the above or below set up?

I am looking to get cruise control and had the Kaoko on a prior motorcycle and found it annoying. Like Bill says, it’s hard to hand on to the throttle keeping it at a single speed and rotating the ring. I am looking at getting something that has a button like the atlas. Byee, did you actually...

I am putting a Garmin Tread (same as the Zumo XT except for ATV's) on my bike and I need to get the plug for it.

Bought this one...

Well that's a bummer. Totally get that in the northern part of our country that you would want to not have your ride sitting in the garage for a month. Hopefully its fixed fast and you are back on the road.

Any word on your coolant leak?

I have a buddy that reads about oils and recommended the Motul 7100 oil you reference and I found a gallon for $51 on Amazon which is $13/liter which is reasonable. I decided go with the K&N KN-164 oil filter as I trust the brand and as a bonus it has a nut for easy removal. Now I am trying to...

I am looking to gather up the parts needed to do the first oil change. From what I can see I located the filter and oil. Is there a substitute for the $20/liter BMW oil that manual is looking to scare you into getting? (SAE 5W-40, API SJ / JASO MA2, Additives (e.g. molybdenum-based) are not...

Looks like the designers of these never put them on a real bike… 🤨. Looks like you could rotate the right side shock 180 and put the reservoir forward which would allow you to adjust it more easily. i am looking at the same shocks and my wife and I ride 2 up most times and currently have the...

What was interesting was I disconnected both my Cardo helmet comm and my phone from the bike as I thought I was not going to bother using it.. Then I decided to give it another try so I connect just my phone (no helmet) again and use the bmw app for navigation. I started the ride and it was...

I am aware of apples warning about putting iPhones on motorcycles. I don’t mount my iPhone on the scooter, I keep it in my pocket and use the directions from the app into my cardo headset. I used to use a Quadlock and then I bought the anti-vibration mount because on the Vespa it used to shake...

Went for a break in ride last night after work and try out the BMW navigation app, that leaves a lot to be desired. It wouldn’t tell you of upcoming turns and it even missed some turns. I drive mostly back roads and I am sure the road information for those roads versus interstates is not as...

We take delivery of our C400GT tomorrow and I am currently reading the manual and I am at the part of connecting my iPhone to the bike and they discuss connecting the helmet communicators to the bike. We have Cardo PackTalk Bold's and they work perfectly as it and can do most any feature hands...
