    Bought PDF Shop Manual For C 400 GT on eBay

    I know I'm a bit late joining this feed, but if anyone is still looking for wiring diagrams for the C400X try this link. I know it's UK but I'm sure it will work elsewhere. https://ebay.io/m/GvL2kn

    BMW C400 GT (2020) Roller Weights

    I'm a bit late to the party on this one. The video below is very helpful but it's in Japanese. I just used the translate facility although you don't really need it as the gentleman shows him weighing and measuring the rollers. HTH. Ian

    C400X Battery Replacement and Service Question

    I had cause to replace the battery on my 21 plate C400X (Manufactured 2019). I had a spare battery on trickle charge for my 1991 Yamaha SRX400 (grey import). It's identical! I just swapped it over and it's starting charging and running fine now. Battery code is YTX9-BS if anyone has need. HTH...

    Rear output shaft bearing failure right after rear tyre + brake pad replacement

    Are you in one of the Motoring Organisations (ie AA or RAC or similar)? If so it may be prudent getting them to give you an opinion or as you suggested trying a BMW Motorrad approved technician to give you a professional opinion. Sorry I can't be of further help as it looks expensive whatever...

    Service message

    My scooter is now out of warranty and I do object to paying BMWs exorbitant prices for servicing. But it's almost impossible to get rid of the service reminder. (I'm sure someone will be along and tell me otherwise) I have since found out that by altering the date to 2023 this got rid of the...

    New member welcome thread..

    Hi Nick, welcome to the forum. I'm also in Shropshire (Telford) and like you I bought my 2021 C400X on a bit of a whim with a similar mileage. Again similarly I have grown to love it, it's quickness, economy and practicality come to mind. Love the setting for your photo. Just outside Leighton...

    Hyperpro Shocks

    I have watched this with interest as I bought and fitted the YSS rear shockers from WEMOTO UK to my "21plate" C400X. I had to wait about 4 weeks or so as they were made to order from Thailand They were £520 incl post and packing . There was a noticeable improvement in handling and I can now lean...

    Hand Guards

    1 Pair 22mm 7/8'' Universal Motorcycle Motorbike Handlebar Hand Guards Protector New £8.98 Free 3 day postage Seller with a 99.3% positive feedback I use these. Not perfect but brilliant VFM. Had to cut them down as the screen on my C400X caught them but hardly a deal breaker.

    Are These Common C400 Issues?

    Regarding one of the points re front brake lever. Apparently this is characteristic of ABS. I had a similar situation on a Suzuki Bandit 650. I don't know if the change of Front caliper manufacturer will alleviate or get rid of the problem.

    New member welcome thread..

    Ian here in Telford UK,. Bought a nearly new C400X in January this year. I have ridden (& restored) many bikes over the years. I now own just one bike, a grey import Yamaha SRX400 which I restored over lockdown and the BMW scooter. Had a couple of issues with the scooter which my local dealer...
