Recently I see a whole lot of posts from unhappy customers complaining about BMW lack of this or unreliable that and touting the marvels of other makes.
Well, My 2013 C600 sport (why they called it 600 when it has the same engine as the 650 GT, I'll never figure out) has 7000 miles, new tires and is still going strong with a replaced BMW battery for a Li-ion battery (no more battery tender, yay!). It does exactly what I wanted it for, it handles 30 mph crosswinds going across a local freeway bridge, it looks great with that cool blue and matching top box, and I get all sorts of "nice bike" comments. Holds a 12 pack of beer and groceries (which is what I use it for mostly-to and from the market).
Anyway, I just wanted to put in my 2cents to help counteract the nay sayers.
