Segment: Scooter
Production years: 2014, 2015
The BMW C 600 Sport was a maxi-scooter made by BMW in 2012. The bike was produced at BMW's plant in Spandau, Germany, and was their first scooter after the BMW C1 manufactured by Bertone.
The scooter was first presented in late 2010 at the EICMA Show alongside the BMW R 650 GT. The production started in December 2011 and was available for purchase in 2012 in Europe and in 2012 for the 2013 model year in the USA.
In 2014, the German motorcycle maker released the BMW C 600 Sport, a maxi-scooter, in the third consecutive production year. Compared to the GT version, the Sport model had a sportier appearance and several aesthetic differences.
The 2014 model came in the same shape and form as previous ones, offering the same technical, visual, and performance specifications without any significant changes. Despite their designation, both models were set in motion by a 647cc engine.
Aesthetically, the scooter was characterized by standard features, such as a full fairing, two headlights, a tall windscreen, a one-piece dual seat with passenger grab handles, a horizontally-mounted shock absorber, a single-sided swingarm, and five-spoke blacked-out wheels.
As for power, the 2014 BMW C 600 Sport was set in motion by a 647cc four-stroke liquid-cooled two-cylinder engine mounted at its core, boasting 60 hp with a peak force at 7,500 rpm and 66 Nm (49 lb-ft) torque at 6,000 rpm.
