Segment: Scooter
Production years: 2015, 2016
The BMW C 600 Sport, alongside the C 650 GT, was a maxi-scooter manufactured by BMW Motorrad since 2012 at BMW's plant in Spandau, Germany. It was BMW's first scooter since the C1, which was manufactured by Bertone.
The line was presented at the EICMA Show in late 2010, and production started in December 2011. They were available in Europe in the spring of 2012 and in the fall of 2012 in the US for the 2013 model year.
In 2015, the German motorcycle manufacturer released the BMW C 600 Sport, a sportier version than the GT version. It was in the fourth consecutive production year and came with the same specifications as the previous one without any changes.
In the aesthetic department, the scooter had standard fittings, like 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.
The bike was made around an aluminum frame with a 40 mm upside-down fork on the front that provided 115 mm wheel travel and a single-sided swingarm with a shock absorber on the rear, offering 115 mm of travel and excellent performance and handling.
A for power, the 2015 BMW C 600 Sport had its soul brought to life by a 647cc four-stroke liquid-cooled two-cylinder engine mounted at its core, delivering an output power of 60 hp with a peak force at 7,500 rpm and 66 Nm (49 lb-ft) torque at 6,000 rpm.
