Within one year I traded up from a 300 to a 400 kymco and then to the GT. It worked well for me as I made most of my rookie errors on smaller, cheaper scooters. Stuff like leaning over too far to have something handed to me whilst straddling the bike. Or stopping half on, half off my garage...

I use the ram mount on the reservoir without any problems. I've replaced the fly nut supplied on the arm with a locknut to avoid it being pinched. Bike has been in for a service with it mounted and I've had no comment from the dealer. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Which is why I place another board under the stand. The board spins whilst the stand sits on it. This way the stand does not scrape across the floor straining against it's joints. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Thanks for that JamieC, I've seen a similar video on YouTube but in all honesty, I simply don't have the guts to try it. I am spinning the bike on the centre stand now after fabricating a board with aluminum strips on the four edges (to stop the wheel rolling off) that sits under the front...

I've been doing some research and it seems that studies claim that day light running lights offer more visibility. I've also come across this video from BMW which claims the same. http://youtu.be/yMyztJGlutY. Watching the video you will begin to agree but for me I noted the dullness of the...

No I live in Malta, Europe. The LED lights came as part of the high line package. "Another feature which enhances riding safety as well as providing a highly impressive visual touch is LED daytime running light. BMW Motorrad is the first manufacturer to use the "angel eyes" with LED technology...

BMW claims that the day time LED running lights offer more visibility but when switched on, the dim headlamp is automatically switched off. With the Dim on, the LED is still on but in a dimmer mode. What are your thoughts on the matter, do you use the LEDs or the dim light by day? P.S. I've...

My latch does not make a sound when I open or close it. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

On my GT the seat closes easily if I push down and sideways, right to left when facing towards the back of the scooter. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Nice to meet you too Luigi. I'm from Malta and new to BMW too. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I found a video showing what JamieC's mechanic does with the side stand which you can see here. http://youtu.be/uWWnf0niufk Frankly I can't see myself doing that with my brand new, two day old bike weighing 260 kilos. The komatex sheet under the front wheel and a separate one under the stand...

The garage at my house is located down a rather steep ramp making it impossible to reverse the bike out. It is also impossible to reverse the bike down into the garage not only because of the gradient of the ramp but also because I would need to push it up off the street backwards onto the...

Sorted with a dolly http://www.amazon.co.uk/Motorcycle-Constands-Rockster-Adventure-Classic/dp/B00LHDTFVE/ref=cm_sw_em_r_aspcop_zb7QJ.3T9YQ24_tt Costing an arm and leg to ship to Malta but it's a solution Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Got my BMW C 650 GT today and I am encountering a huge problem to turn it on the centre stand in the garage because of its weight so I was wondering if anyone has any simple solutions to the problem. Three point turns are not an option due to limited space. My previous scooter a Kymco 400...

I am considering purchasing the Givi side panniers for my GT which already has the BMW top box installed ( apparently this should not be a problem) I only want to use these for long holiday trips. My question is how difficult/complex is it to keep removing the frame and re attaching it to the...
