    Comie/Shad Tour Box

    I have GIVI topcases that I can interchange between my VESPA GTS and the BMW 400GT. I have 30, 46, and 56 liter cases. It works out very well for me. The pic could be better but outside it was a squall.

    BMW Main Dealer Service prices

    I just had warranty work done on mine. The Air temp sensor was damaged. It was replaced and the wiring repaired as well. I also had a new rear tire mounted and balanced. A screen cover was installed, the scoot was washed, and I paid to have it delivered ($125). All-in-all the bill was...

    New biker or “scooterer” LOL

    Congrats on your 400GT. I bought one about 4 months ago. I have added a rear luggage rack to mine to make use of some GIVI boxes that I had. I think both look good on the C400GT. Look into the GIVI V46 and the Dolimti series in the 30L. After I had the rear luggage rack installed, I had to...

    BMW Motorrad Connected App Opinions

    I can get my iPhone to connect to the 400. I can get my Cardo Packtalk intercom to connect to my iPhone and my 400. I can NOT get my Sena intercom (part of my Schuberth helmet) to connect with the 400. My Vespa connects with everything I throw at it.

    BMW Main Dealer Service prices

    I had the initial service, plus I had a GARMIN motorcycle mount and wiring harness installed. The bill was $365.00. When I had them install the BMW luggage rack, they charged me $60. I consider those reasonable. Recently I purchased the factory warranty extension that goes out to 7yrs...

    C400GT Top Box

    I had the BMW rear rack installed when I was getting my first service done. Then I ordered the GIVI adapter plate (just go to the GIVI website for what you need) and installed it. Then I put the universal monokey plate that GIVI sells on that. It was pretty easy.

    The Low Five Wave ....

    I wave at everyone, even motorcycle cops. Sometimes people wave back, other times they don't . I used to get my knickers in a ringer when they wouldn't. Then I caught myself not seeing someone coming from the other direction. Mostly that happened with a highway divided by a concrete barrier...

    New member welcome thread..

    At the risk of introducing my self twice.... Hello all, I'm Don from Kansas City. I had a C650 Sport but traded it in on a Vespa GTS. As good as that was, it wasn't the perfect scooter. Soooooo, I bought a 2022 C 400GT. Retirement is just around the corner so I have some bucket list trips I...

    Powerlet Outlet (Smart Charger, Heated Gear) on Left Side of C 400 GT?

    You might want to check the right cubby as mine (a 2022) has one installed. It's that BMW power socket that accepts those BMW things.

    Opinions on your C400 suspension

    I totally agree. I have a 2020 Vespa GTS 300 and it seems to handle the daily bumps and dips much better than the BMW. When I owned my 2016 C650 sport, I thought it was better than the Vespa. I can so see a shock upgrade in my future.

    Rode A Customized Victory Vegas

    I caught an UBER yesterday after dropping off my scoot for service. The driver asked me why was I at a scooter dealership. She asked me, "don't you ever want to ride a real motorcycle?" I asked her if she ever has ridden a VESPA or BMW scooter.... "No", she said. So sad what people are...

    What are the most common aftermarket upgrades ?

    For my C650 Sport I've added: a GIVI windshield; a RAM mount on the left brake reservoir; a Kaoko throttle lock; a large GIVI topcase; the inside BMW cargo separator; and the BMW SAT NAV unit. The SAT NAV unit was deeply discounted by the dealer when I bought the scoot. If the dealer offers...

    Has anyone had the bike cut off

    My 2016 C650 Sport has about 1750 miles on it. It has stumbled on me probably 3 times. Two of those was when I was leaving my home. The other time was after I had driven it 2 miles. In all cases I was pulling out onto a street and making a left turn. It is a disconcerting situation. Don...

    Turbine noise.

    Hello all: I did some searching on a "whine noise" or turbine noise and found a posting or two but they were 4 years old. With that said.... I have a 2016 (new demo) C650 Sport that is making a noise best described as a turbine whine noise. I notice it when I'm doing about 65 to 70. It was...

    Chinese Scooters

    Good advice. I tell people time and time again to stay away from the Chinese bikes. Next thing you know they are having one drop shipped to their homes. When they break down they inevitably come to me and ask me where they can get it fixed. I send them to a shop that will work on them...

    Oil sensor warning lights

    When I bought my demo 2016 C650 sport with about 400 miles, the light would come on (yellow triangle / chk oil ). I was told that the problem should go away after the break-in service was done. Well, it didn't. The dealership then replaced the level sensor and for the last 200 miles all is...

    Crater Lake Trip

    Viewing this reminds me I am upside down in my scooter loan. However, I consider Crater Lake one of those "must see" places to go.

    New to the brand, old to the scoot.

    Hey Nokey1. I had a big Kymco (Xciting 500ri) and the clutch gave me fits. I had the dealership change it out at least 4 times for the shudder like you speak of in the BMW. They told me the seals were inferior and that oil had migrated to the clutch discs. Every time the noise would get...
