2012 BMW C600 Sport is fitted with the 647cc parallel-twin that produces 60 horsepower at 7500rpm and 66Nm of torque at 6000 revs. 2012 BMW C600 Sport also get continuously variable transmission (CVT) as is the norm with almost all scooters these days. BMW says its new engine is the most powerful and efficient engine in its class, and it claims a top speed of a lofty 109 mph.

The design of the 2012 BMW C600 Sport suspension features a torsionally rigid hybrid interconnection of a tubular steel bridge frame and a diecast aluminium unit at the swingarm bearing. In addition, the 2-cylinder inline engine functions as a stressed element, presenting a particularly rigid construction for stable and high precision response.
A large-digit analog speedometer is complemented by an outsized LCD info panel that includes a fuel gauge (for its 16-liter tank), rate of fuel consumption, oil-level readout, ambient temperature and tachometer. A power socket is standard equipment, and a powerful 588-watt alternator provides plenty of juice to energize optional headed grips and seats. In addition to two preset (high/low) settings, the seat/grip warmers have a new Auto level that delivers heat based off outside temperature and vehicle speed.
