BMWF650GS 2001 - 2002

　　In 2001, the German motorcycle manufacturer launched the BMW F650GS, a dual-purpose motorcycle that debuted in 2000 and continued production until 2007. Over its production time, the maker sold over 105,000 units.

　　In addition, the bike was available in a lowered model with a lower seat height due to a smaller shock absorber on the rear, a standard model, and a more off-road-oriented Dakar version with a thinner 21-inch front wheel and more extended suspension travel for better off-road capabilities.

　　In the visual department, the motorcycle packed standard features, such as a high-mounted front fender, a small windscreen, a small headlight, a one-piece dual seat with passenger grab handles, a small luggage rack, an analog instrument panel, and wire-spoke wheels.

　　The bike's suspension comprised a 41 mm telescopic fork on the front and an adjustable shock absorber on the rear, delivering excellent suspension performance and handling.

　　In the braking department, the wheels were fitted with a 300 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper on the front wheel and a 240 mm disc with a single-piston caliper on the rear wheel, offering excellent stopping power.

　　The 2001 BMW F650GS had installed underneath its fairing a 652cc four-stroke single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine fed by an electronically-controlled fuel injection system, delivering 50 hp with maximum strength at 6,800 rpm and 60 Nm (44 lb-ft) torque at 5,200 rpm.
