What I say: Great dual-sport for road and trail. Fun first time motorcycle. I'm only 5'4" and 125lbs and it fits me perfectly flat footed. I road for fun with my husband, but would rather ride my horse. I'm the second owner, and both of us gently used it. What BMW Says:The most popular dual purpose single in the 250+ cubic centimeters category, the G 650 GS has become the standard upon which single-cylinder dual purpose motorcycles are judged. Aggressively engineered for unrelenting performance in harsh environments, the G 650 GS was designed to take riders off-road and on to new frontiers. The 2009 model features a 2 SPARK ignition system, a three-position clutch lever, newly designed windscreen, accessory power socket, and improved on-board electronics.
I bought this bike from a great BMW dealer in Irvine last summer for a weekend toy, and just don't have enough time to ride it. It's a great bike, with super low mileage at 4,000. Perfect from first time rider (I'm only 5'4" and can reach flat footed). The registration is up to date.
