TwistedThrottle has these engine guards for the G650X series that should protect the bike from accidental drops. My main concern is that if the bike drops, the radiator and plastic work is right there to hit the street. Even if the repair is not too expensive (which seems like a strange situation with a BMW), I would HATE to wait for a ride home and have my bike towed after it drops. The least that I would like to do is ride it home. These things may help out with that and for $169, they may be worth it!

I wondered, I use my xmoto in and around town. The battery runs flat real quick, BMW say that I dont do enough miles to let it recharge - have you come accross a flat battery yet?
Well, up till now I have almost 600 miles on my bike. Not a single highway mile there, all city traffic. My commute to work is exactly 10 miles, so I ride 20 miles per day with an 8 hour stop in between. I have not had any problems with a flat battery at all. I just went on a business trip for 2 weeks, after which the bike started up at first press... Are you living in a cold climate?
My only annoyance is the anemic sound and the throttle response, which supposedly can be fixed by fitting a sports exhaust.
Do you like yours? Any other gripes?
