I own a c650 all time used with jcosta, and is not necessary to change only the chain, i have 37k km and it works well, for me is better to change all the kit trasmission on 40k and that s it
You are right. At the 20 000 km, when I changed the chain, I'm also checked the condition of the rear sprocket. It was not in bad condition. In that case, next check is in 40 000km when is recommendation to change all the chain set. It means, change the chain and front/rear sprocket. All what I'm telling here is not from my head. It is information from BMW authorization service in Czech Republic. I dont know if in other countries are different schedulled maintanance rules. I'm following this recommendatin despite the fackt that all BMW parts are really expensive.
I bought it at the our local CZ eshop, it is: KTW 2.5 130.150, and Kellermann 130.100. But I had to use shorter screw which I bought in hobby market and did the hole to it. You will see when You will try what I mean. It is hard to explain.
Hi again, I have watched all your maintenance video and courious that how did you reset? Did you use any diagnostic aparat for reset? Mine 2016 model which one should I buy for reset service? Thx best regards.
Kubilay yılmaz hello. I have C600 Sport, version 2013. I have GS-911 diagnostic tool for reset the service notification and check the system logs. It works without any problem.
Hey there, great video and thanks for sharing it. What do the spacers do exactly? the ones you removed after closing the new chain, are they to stop the new chain links from becoming blocked and making the chain stiff? PLUS, do they come with the chain?, and finally, what is the chain opening tool you used, looks pretty good quality. Thankyou very much.
Hello. The spacers are having the reason exactly as you described. It came with chain joint: 27727720938. The chain tool I used is Kellermann KTW 2.5, + Kellermann 130.230 + I had to make new shorter screw. The standard size in the chain set is too long. The chain is in the box with oil, there is not free space for such long screw because distance between chain and the rear side of chain cover is only few centimeeters. I bought new screw in the hobbymarket, made it shorter and drilled the hole in the front end same as the standard screw in the chain tool. Because of that extra work I can not recommend that tool for this scooter, but the quality of the tool is great and it works as designed.
Great, thankyou so much, I will be checking my chain soon as I have now 33000km on my bike (650 GT 2012) and at 40000km will be doing the belt, weights and a general check over. Great Video thanks again.
Hello, I drive a BMW C650GT and would like to tighten my chain. Where and how can I tighten my chain? Is there a special operation needed for that. At the BMW dealer, they told me that the chain must be renewed at 10000KM, is that right? I would like to hear an answer from you. Thanks in advance. Kind regards,
Hello. I am afraid that there is no any tighten mechanism similar as other motorbikes. I followed recommendation in 20k km change the chain. At 40k km is good to think about the chain and the sprocket set. I dont have the motorbike for more than one year so I changed the chain in 20k km. But the price for the service interval in 40k km is so high in my country, it was better for me to sell the motorbike before this level will be reached.
Hy, I own a C650GT 2013, and I want to change the oil in the chain chamber, and this job is almost done. But I have a question, have you ever changed the oil in the gearbox? Because I saw on the internet that, in the gearbox goes 350ml oil and in the chain chamber 750 ml. Maybe it was a wrong information. Thanks.
@@aigo1978 I'm understanding, but haw you know how to change it? The place where you let it out, and where you fill it up? Maybe you have studied this thing...?
@@alexoliver7391 at 40k should be a big maintanance (also expensive) time... like all chain set (not only chain), CVT belt, rollers, etc.. maybe they changed it and you dont know about. I am not the BMW proff. So please dont believe me fully. If you want to be sure.. call to your BMW dealer.
@@aigo1978 There was maintenance before I'd buy it, but I didn't see this part about we are talking. Thank you for your time and advice. Have a good day!!! And good roads!!!👍
Hello Ladislav, I have as you a BMW C600 Sport from 04/2013. Can you tell me which model of GS-911 you have bought and where did you bought it ? Thanks
Hi. I bought USB version "yellow" in here: beemershop.com. It was horrible expensive and really long time ago. The same product is not in the market available I suppose.
Hey , can you please tell me after how many kms the cain need to be changed ? And belt ? I am looking to buy an maxi scooter bmw c650 gt , yamaha tmax or kymco ak550 and I search to all i fo I can get before I buy it ... not easly to spent +10 k for a scooter . Thanks
I dont know about gearbox oil. There is not any gearbox at the bike. Only CVT. Are You sure the gearbox oil is there? I did not see gearbox oil change activity at any maintenance schedule list I saw till today? Sorry
hi, BMW recomending at 20 000 Km. I have 22 000 and the old chain was (only by my opinion) quite OK for maybe more then 10 000 Km. You can easily check the chain sag when you dismount the black plastic cover marked with the text "BMW" which is directly on the aluminium chain cover. Behind it is possible to see the chain throu the small hole. Take screwdriver and try to lift the chain. Recomendation is, distance between bottom black plastic slider and bottom part of chain shouldnt be more than 1,5 cm. But it is BMW recomendation which is very strict. Keep your mind up. If you will think it is too saggy. Replace it. I measured the new chain sag (after replacement) and I had about 1,5 cm with the new chain :)
Andrey Polyakov Hi friend I have a 2013 c650 GT scooter has 8k mil and My scooter staring feeling slack. Where do I look for adjustment and it’s this 528 chain would work ?? On that scooter. Thank you..
@@aigo1978 a chain running in an enclosed oil bath changed at 20.000km !!!! They are having your pants down , not a chance that chain is worn at that mileage .
Most chains are O-ring Which are lubed already with factory wax and like Ladislav said.. its constantly being splashed in oil bath. It's the chain Gudies that mainly need replacing. Thankyou for taking the time to do the vids LAD. Great Job🤘🤘💪💪💪👊
If you don't know, you can try following steps. 1/leave the bike at straight position at the flat ground 2/try as first only 500 ml 3/check the chain if is splashed by oil. For the chain visibility is there black cover marked "BMW" (0:20 at this video). There are two screws. Behind that cover is small hole for regular check of the chain condition.
