There may be other ways, like GS911, but my preferred method has been the OBDLink LX and the Motoscan app. This has worked great on all the Beemers I've had so far.

I would suspect the side stand, rather than the CS, since the side stand has a switch. Some people disable the side stand switch and I've done that before on other bikes but not on this one. Doing that seemed more logical on previous adventure bikes I've owned.

Assuming my bike is typical, the speedo reads about 3 mph fast. This was determined by comparison to GPS measured speed. For a single cylinder, 350 cc "thumper", seeing 85-86 on the speedo seems pretty respectable to me, which, of course, is only around 83 mph. If I'm going on a longer trip or...

Don't know for sure but if that happened to me, I would disconnect and reconnect the battery to see if that would fix it.

Same here!

My understanding was that the tape strips were stacked. One place in the instructions listed an incorrect length for cutting the strips so watch out for that. Also, I placed the strips according to the cutout areas. That sort of worked but not perfectly. I wound up trimming the visible pieces of...

Rear grab handle to frame M8 X 30: 19 Nm

I haven't given my bike a serious speed test but just from experimenting a couple of times, I really doubt mine is as fast as yours. On level ground, and in a tuck, I might reach a GPS speed of 84-85 mph but not much higher. Of course, my speedo will be reading 2-3 mph more than that. Then...

I went the Shad route and, for under $400, I'm very satisfied.

On the top box, I purchased everything from Motostorm, an Italian company. They were great to deal with. They have the mount kit for the C400GT and I went with the SH58x case. This is an expandable case with 3 volume positions; 46, 52, and 58 L. And yes, it's fairly large as you will see, even...

Thanks Mike, for that comprehensive review. Apparently, you've had more than a few bikes and have gained quite a bit of experience so you have a good feel for how things should work and how they should feel. When it comes to suspension, I have to remind myself this is a scooter after all so I'm...

Thanks again for your help! It was getting on "My Vehicle" and pressing the "Menu" button up repeatedly that worked. Much appreciated!

Still not seeing it...here is what I'm doing: Select Settings Select Display Select Status Line Content Select Fuel Tank Level Still, after all that, all I get is miles to empty and no fuel gage bars. Am I still missing something?

What I have showing is distance-to-empty. I really prefer to look at some kind of gas gauge, possibly bars or something like that. Is there some way to get that?

I've bypassed the side stand switch on previous bikes but considering how easy it is to deploy the CS, I have no motivation to do it on this bike.

My faster road riding (racing) friends are all riding S1000XR's so no, I won't be trying to hang with them on this scooter. If your goal is to ride it like a sport bike, then, by all means, upgrade the suspension. Otherwise, at speed, bumpy, curvy roads will upset the chassis and the result may...

Apparently, like you, I have made many modifications to bikes in the past. Suspension upgrades haven't always been great but always an improvement over stock. As we all know, when it comes time to sell, we almost always lose money that was spent. As a result, I have become more and more...

My impressions...well, counting this one, I've had 55 motorcycles. My other ride currently is a '22 R1250GS. I first bought a Yamaha Zuma 125 and it was really fun but a bit small and slow. For a "grocery getter", and quite a bit more, the 400GT is surprisingly good. Build quality is typical...

Good choice! I have one just like yours. I thought I wanted the white one but this color was available so I picked it up. I've received quite a few compliments on it. I have a little over 300 miles on it already, just after a week or so. I'm planning to do the 600 mile service myself.

I just bought that one too. After looking through it, I don't believe it is quite up-to-date for my 2023 C400GT. Still, it's good information and covers a lot that I will be able to use.
