Traded in my 2009 Yamaha TMAX for a 2014 C600, picked it up Saturday. So far I love it. I really loved my TMAX, and if it wasn't the perfect storm of needing tires/brakes/major service I probably would still be driving it. But I good a good deal on the trade, a fair price for the C600 and here I am. So far I'd say the C600 nails all the weaknesses that the TMAX has. It's definitely more powerful, especially once you're moving and need to go from say 30mph to 50mph quickly. It's very balanced, although the engine definitely isn't as smooth, but I'm actually going to put that in the plus column. It's not rough, just rough a little to let you know there's some power there.
One slight negative, I have a Shoei Neotec XL helmet that doesn't fit in the front part of the underseat storage, or at least I can't get it to fit. It fits in the flexcase so it's not a big deal, but just wondering if your helmet fits up front and if so, how what kind/size do you have? You guys with the GT can fit a volkswagen under the seat so I doubt it's a big deal on that.
Also, I'm thinking of mounting a usb port on the handlebars somewhere to power my iphone when it's in the x-grip mount on my left brake reservoir. I know there's a wire under there, and I think BMW makes a connector for it that just has loose wires I could use to tie into an outlet. Is that right?
Last, does anyone have a picture of how the navigator mount connects to the handlebars? Does it require drilling a hole(s)? I'm toying with the idea of mounting an ipad mini with a waterproof case.
