“I just purchased a lightly used c650gt with 992 miles on july 23rd, 2013. Eleven days later with about 200 miles on the bike and I encountered a stalling issue. At first, it stalled in a turn riding out of my neighborhood. Restarted immediately. Road the bike for 1.7 miles to a friends house with no issue. Riding out from that neighborhood and it stalled again. Although I had 3/8's of a tank of gas - I rode to the gas station stalling as I turned into the station. Fueled up and started the engine. Pulling out of the gas station the engine stalled. …”
NHTSA complaint #10533922, filed 2013-08, 1,190 miles“Fuel gauge and related mpg read outs have not worked since the purchase of the brand new bike. The replacement of the tank sensor did not fix the problem. Nine subsequent contacts made to Bmw with no follow through by them to fix this safety issue. I understand that Bmw has an internal service bulletin on the problem.”

On one occasion had me clenching buttocks fairly hard because of near drop in a turn due to engine switching to fancy german silence mode( like airwolf!) . Bike previously at dealer because of stalling after throttle was gently opened. Dealer could not duplicate this type of stalling after 3 weeks and 57 miles. …”
