The BMW F650GS was a dual-purpose motorcycle manufactured by BMW from 2000 to 2007 as a successor to the BMW F650. Over its eight-year production period, the manufacturer sold over 105,000 units.
In addition, the BMW F650GS was available in a standard version, a lowered model with a lower seat height due to a shorter rear shock absorber, and an off-road-oriented model with a higher ground clearance due to a larger 21-inch wheel on the front and longer suspension travel.
The 2002 F650GS had standard features, such as an upper fairing with a small windscreen, a small headlight, a one-piece dual seat with passenger grab handles, a small luggage rack, an under-seat-mounted exhaust system, and lightweight wire-spoke wheels.
The bike was built on a steel frame with a 41 mm telescopic fork on the front and an adjustable shock absorber on the rear, offering excellent off-road handling.
The braking power was achieved by a 300 mm disc coupled to a dual-piston caliper on the front wheel and a 240 mm disc squeezed by a single-piston caliper on the rear wheel, offering optimum stopping power.
Underneath its fuel tank, the 2002 BMW F650GS had fitted a 652cc four-stroke single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with an Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) system, delivering an output power of 50 hp with maximum strength at 6,800 rpm and 60 Nm (44 lb-ft) torque at 5,200 rpm.
