New BMW G650GS

Post by Selous »

Just seen the wright up on the 'new' Beemer, in MCN.

It will be interesting to see what other ppl think of it, as quite a few of the Wrighter's all hack for same company but a load of different Bike Mags.

I've been invited for a test ride on the new 650 down at Simon Paveys gaf in South Wales. Not sure if I'll be going though as the dates clash with other stuff I've got on. Looks a great deal on a fine machine.

I think it looks like a great bike. If I hadn't already brought my f650gs twin I would be very tempted by the g650gs. I like twins!

Hmmm,

Great off-roader, all rounder, frugal engine and BMW finish + reliability, all for under 5k? What a steal!

What's more, it's seat height is lower than a Ninja 250R! This means that SWMBO will be happy as she can already swing a leg over the ninja, but doesnt feel confident.

I think I just found SWMBO's first bike! Brilliant :D

Brand new bmw for £5000, low seat height,got to be a bargain. Can see them selling them by the boatload. Hopefully the chinese engine is trouble free.
