About the Motorcycle

The BMW 2009 F 650 GS has a responsive 71 horsepower parallel twin engine that delivers potent performance. Lightweight construction ensures outstanding agility. An ergonomic low seating position combined with under-the-seat fuel tank for a very low center of gravity creates a great cornering machine. Features like the optional switchable BMW Motorrad ABS guarantee maximum stopping power and rider safety. The optional equipment includes Heated Grips, On Board Computer, and Panniers which make the motorcycle equally at home on city streets, highways, country roads and rough terrain.

The new BMW F650 GS...
because everyone needs something to rely on.
