I have a 2016 with 2500 miles on it. I'm not kidding when I say if I could own any motorcycle in the world, it would be this one. It's the most luxurious ride ever, and it has enough zip to have a LOT of fun. Tons of storage, and all the bells and whistles. Can't imagine going back to a regular bike (and I've owned 10+ of them over the years).
It's a sports tourer motorbike called a scooter. 10k is alot but not compared to a Harley and the "scooter" wins hands down with comfort/speed/reliability.
I really want to make the jump from Maxi Scooter to Cruiser (since I learned to ride on a Cruiser), but these BMWs are making that decision harder. The heated seat and grips plus storage are a big selling point for me.
Rented one for a weekend stuffed the wife on the back and split for three days that was 2016. Just bought our second one this year 2020 sold the older model to a friend when we found an option 716 up for grabs. Sold the Harley too. I’m about riding not repairing. Total comfort will never go back
Can someone help me about the real consumption + - from this BMW c650gt?mostly on the city. I want buy one from 2019 but I see some forums with about 5-6-7 litres for 100km like a car even more.
I had a 650GT which I liked, especially commuting to London, but swapped it after 18 months for a F800GT. The reason was that the engine started cutting out at low revs, which meant having to stop, pull the left hand break lever and restart. This was rather dangerous, and I was nearly rear-ended twice, once by a lorry. To make things worse, I got stranded in the Netherlands, and the dealer there was unable to replace a faulty engine management chip, which caused this problem. Luckily BMW's warranty stepped in and was great, as they flew me home, provided me with a rental car and then brought the scooter back as well. Much happier with gears now and the F800GT is a great bike. Scooters are great but the need to stop whilst restarting the engine could be lethal.
GLad you re OK mate! I had the same problem with my scooter honda sh300 R . After long discussions and resaerch it proved to be bad fuel the reason it killswitched the engine running at low and very low speeds. And the injection body thought it as aaa fault and killed the engine when it occured. The matter with the brake lever being pulled in order to restart the engine ( and thus the full stop needed ) could be solved by disconnecting the switch in which it demands to be pressed for the start button to work! As a result you can press the engine start button even when rolling without the need to stop in case engine cuts out....
Could have easily had the fault repaired under warranty, you fool. You let go of a scooter because it developed a fault? And motorcycles never develop any faults I take it? LOL
I like your video but your voice needed a bit of compression and editing where it dropped out or was lost to track. If you'd like some help improving your videos I would be willing to assist. I'm looking at this vs the F800GT as a daily... With the 800 I feel like the lack of tech you see on the RS feels like a compromise whereas this is the king of scooters
They're the same price as the Tmax 530 however you get way more for your money! When I'm on mine the Tmax boys never can keep up with me in open roads or in London and even some guys on sports bikes! :-). If you could review the two of them thought that would be cool. Good work.
Your tone ruin a goo review, do you care if other can hear your low tone at the end of the sentence?, why swallowing the words so much it getting annoyed because tried so hard to get the details and become strained
Do you get bored with speaking every time you pass the middle of your sentence? I'm just listening to the beginning of your sentences and filling in the blanks from context. Get some diction lessons if you want to present reviews.

You have a 2016 'what'? They mention two bikes in this video.
@@Sunz-me5mo 2016 C650GT. Sold it last fall though and bought a Onewheel. Been having much more fun on that.
Lose the goddamn heavy metal music and let us hear how the scooters' sound will ya?!

Irritating background music.
Yup
Waaay too loud, I wanted to hear the review better.

How much is this motorcycle
Very good review, but the rediculous music often hides the narrative.
Great review straight to the point
A guy rides with us bought one as he is somewhat advanced in years and not short a few quid. Perfect for him at least..
Perfect for you too when u get a few quid urself
@@Sunz-me5mo With 4 bikes already I'll have to give this one a miss!
Thanks for the in depth review.

Good review but your voice trails off towards the end of every sentence so it's hard to make out what you're saying.
Not so sure its a good review since I only hear about 50%.
Please when you make a video don’t put music in the background,it ruins everything and doesn’t let us hear the motor
The BMW C 650 GT is a Kymco scooter. That is not bad, Kymco is a good brand.
Its not. It uses a few Kymco parts. That's all

So that's all you do...buy a scoot, so u can hooligan your way with the tmax boys? You've got class.
What an irritating voice over especially with that stupid background music!!!
What's the difference between bmw c650gt and the highline version?
Does it still have the stalling problems?
the background music destroys this video. stop. it.
Music destroys the film for me, very distracting.
Your voice keeps trailing off to a quiet mumble. Could only make out about half of what you said.
Great video.
Please don't swallow words when you talk it annoying, keep your voice at a standard loudness beside that?, thanks for the nice vid
Isn't this the motor BMW use in the range extender generator in the i3 electric car ??
If so, how does that affect you? Unless you have an i3 with a missing range extender engine?
you mean cutting through St Albans?
Man its a hard to decide what one!!!!
I ride all year round.
I have a honda forza 300
How much is this motorcycle
Music is mixed too loud bi can't hear the commentary, same on another vid
does the sport model have cruise control?
hdidane00 neither the sport or the the GT have cruise control.
Nice video but the next time skip the annouying music and let us listen to the sound of the engines
damn it tai lopez, your everywhere
These things always look fun and practical, but 10K!? Crazy.
Tmax is the same price, but smaller engine and that badge ...well...it's a Yamaha...not a BMW. That says it all.
Mumble mumble mumble
voted down due to the noise (music) ... please don't next time, thank you.
Yep 10k plenty of Yamaha MT10 for that 💨💨👍🏻👍🏻
would love to see this head to head with a Burgman 650
Burgie 650 is dead. Long live the king.
Your tone ruin a goo review, do you care if other can hear your low tone at the end of the sentence?, why swallowing the words so much it getting annoyed because tried so hard to get the details and become strained
"or a YOUTH on a blah blah" 🤨
The very annoying music is too loud so distracts from the reason I wanted to watch the video!
260kg for a scooter? Yikes!
sweet =)
