BMW C 650 SPORT 2016 - 2017

The new BMW maxi scooter C 650 Sport turns even a routine journey into a driving experience. It is the perfect companion for anyone who is looking for a smart way to get around in the city. The 650 cc scooter’s effortless handling and sporty performance ensure an unparalleled riding sensation. The in-line two-cylinder engine delivers an impressive 63 Nm and 44 kW (60 hp) and with a maximum speed of 180 km/h it will get you to your destination in no time at all. Taking corners and weaving through heavy city traffic is now even easier with the optimized, agile chassis and suspension. The modern, futuristic look of the C 650 Sport is eye-catching and emphasizes the scooter’s sporty aspirations. A completely re-designed front with fairing panels that sit higher gives the maxi scooter a more sophisticated appearance. New handlebar covers with a high-gloss centre section and chrome highlights enhance the visual look of the scooter. Additionally the new stainless-steel exhaust system not only looks more attractive, it also has a more powerful sound, yet weighs less and has lower noise and exhaust emissions. 2017 BMW C650 Sport Key Features With the new BMW C 650 Sport and C 650 GT, BMW Motorrad continues its series of premium vehicles in the scooter segment. Perfect for the city and other urban environments, they combine practicality and cost-efficiency with maximum riding fun and touring comfort. Riders with fondness for sport riding will appreciate their prowess on winding country roads as well as lengthier tours. The differing conceptual emphasis of each of the two BMW scooters reaches a broader market segment than earlier scooters: the C 650 Sport is geared towards riders with sportier ambitions, while the C 650 GT sets its sights on those who attach greater importance to comfort and touring capability. With an extensively modified drivetrain, more comfortable suspension settings and a completely revised design for the C 650 Sport, they offer – more than ever before – the excellent ride qualities of a motorcycle with the specific agility and comfort offered by the scooter concept. Optimal drivetrain set-up and new exhaust system for a more active riding experience. The 2-cylinder in-line engine with a capacity of 647 cc once again ensures dynamic propulsion in the new scooters. The rated output in both models is 60 hp (44 kW) at 7,500 rpm. Engine mapping was redefined for use in the new C 650 Sport and the new C 650 GT to satisfy the requirements of the EU4 pollutant class. In addition, a new silencer gives the vehicles a more dynamic look as well as provides a particularly full sound while adhering to the new ECE R41-04 noise test regulations. A new CVT transmission set-up in conjunction with new clutch linings enables optimal clutch engagement and therefore a significantly more dynamic take-off response. This was achieved by changing the transmission ratio spread of the CVT as well as by fine-tuning the centrifugal force weights. New suspension and damper set-up for increased comfort. The suspension construction of the new C 650 Sport and C 650 GT continues to use a torsionally stiff hybrid composite structure consisting of a tubular steel bridge frame and a die-cast aluminum unit in the area of the swingarm bearing. Retaining the existing spring travel of 4.5 inches in each case, it was possible to create a more comfortable suspension set-up. As a result, the C 650 Sport and C 650 GT offer a perfect compromise between sport riding and comfort. Standard ABS and ASC significantly improve safety when braking and accelerating.. Based on the “Safety 360°” principle, the optimum design of the brake system in conjunction with the standard BMW Motorrad ABS Bosch 9.1MB ensures the very highest level of active riding safety. Another safety bonus is the ASC (Automatic Stability Control), which is now equipped as standard. Completely new dynamic design for the C 650 Sport and detailed stylistic fine-tuning for the C 650 GT. The new edition of the two models features a more modern, dynamic and future-oriented design for the C 650 Sport. This integrates it seamlessly in the BMW Motorrad design philosophy. By contrast the C 650 GT – positioned in the Comfort sub-segment – has been fine-tuned with new rear side trim panels and a new rear light unit. Both models have also been fitted with newly designed instrument dials as well as new handlebar trim. Other new features include the revised design of the center stand, which improves the ease of operation. The attractive paint finishes of the new C 650 Sport and C 650 GT. The C 650 Sport and C 650 GT are each offered in three color variations.

In the C 650 GT, Blackstorm metallic highlights the elegant character of the vehicle, while Frozen Bronze metallic in conjunction with a contrasting tone creates a harmonious paint finish that clearly emphasizes the styling of the new C 650 GT.
