The top box looks good! Mine just came in today. I'll post a photo after it's installed during the 600 mile service...a week from this Saturday.
What's all that white stuff on the ground?

My 15th bike err maxi scooter
Just took delivery of a 2013, unfortunately the engine case had a porous housing, but fortunately for BMW's steller customer service they shipped me a new 2014 to replace it.
I like the black.

Hello everyone my name is Sean and live in the Atlanta metro area. I have been riding for 30+ years on many different bikes. I got the 650GT this year in February 2017 and broke in the engine during the spring, the photo is from last weeks 790 mile 3 day weekend ride. Just love this machine, and planning on many more!!

I went to the trade show in Toronto last February looking for the best bike for me. After looking at, and sitting on hundreds of bikes, I knew I was still
into scooters, and trading up from my 300 I was ready to go with a 650. The BMW C650GT had the best reviews I could find anywhere and I spent most
of the winter researching them all. It is also the most powerful scooter available in Canada with the best ratings. I knew if I wanted a scooter, this would
be the best bike. The Toronto dealership had this one sitting there for almost three years. The story is, some wealthy gentleman walked in and purchased the
bike but never came to pick it up. Finally after a few years he simply told them to trade it in on something else. So this poor lonely dejected bike sat there
for three years on the showroom floor with a "sold" sign in it but no owner to claim it.
I found the bike and loved it right away, and loved the price since at this point it was considered a "used" vehicle even though it only had 50km on it.
We made fast friends and have been bonded ever since. Since late May/early June I have put almost 7500km on it already driving to the east coast and
back, as well as all over midwestern Ontario. It has been a fantastic bike and has performed reliably. Which is a good thing since the dealer charges $368 just
to change the oil. I can't complain though, as I went to 6 local bike shops and every one of them refused to touch it because of it's advanced engineering. Even one
bike shop run by an ex-BMW technician. He said he didn't have the special tools for these C-series machines.
So easy to control, and powerful enough to deliver when you need it.
At this point I don't know if I'll ever feel the urge to get a larger bike. I'm pretty happy on this one right now. At the most, when the time comes I have the urge to
get a new bike, I am strongly leaning toward trading it in on a newer model.
