Hello,
I've been thinking about moving to a C650. Currently own a BMW S1000. It's a fun ride but it sits around a lot of the time.
Looked around a bit on the forums, anyone do all the maintenance on their scoot? I've done valve clearancing on my old Suzuki GS500 (parallel twin) and work as a CNC programmer/machinist for a living so I'm not too bothered by working on things. No way in heck could I buy this and pay what they charge every 12,000 miles to keep it operational.
Valves adjustable or do you use shims?
I ride a lot of freeway 65-70mph, is it well suited?
What kind of tire life is to be expected?
Thanks
