BMW F650 GS two up?
Hi all,
I am thinking of buying a BMW F650 GS for light enduro touring and trips up to 400km daily mostly on highways with some dirt. Our total touring weight(wife and I)will be under 160 kg. Do you think this bike is underpowered for that kind of work or adequate or should I bite the bullet and step up to 1200 GS? Thanks

My F650 has done 70,000km in the last five years, almost all two up with total loading about 200kg. It now is showing 135,000km, much of that on dirt and gravel tracks. All I have done to date is replace the water pump. I have two bigger bikes in the shed (K100LT and VFR750) and the F650 does more than four times the miles of the other two combined each year. I would only sell it to buy another F650!
Regards Nigel in NZ
