Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the W0CG62RV involves removing specific hardware around the passenger grab rails of the BMW C650 GT to accommodate the mounting plate. It is recommended to use the included instructions to ensure all fasteners are torqued correctly to prevent vibration loosening over time.

Compatibility: This kit is exclusively compatible with the BMW C650 GT. It is not intended for the C600 Sport or other models. Ensure your motorcycle is in stock configuration around the rear handles before attempting installation.

Care: Periodically inspect the mounting bolts during your routine maintenance checks to ensure they remain tight. Clean the bracket with a mild soap and water solution, avoiding harsh abrasive chemicals that could mar the finish.
