I hadn't realised till I popped into the local BM dealer yesterday that the F650GS is actually 798cc just like the F800GS. Aside from a few bits of plastic, it seems the only difference is a detuned engine, the wheels and the ability to have the 800 set for 91RON petrol. What's the point in that? Surely if you're going to lug round the extra weight of an 800cc engine you may as well get the oomph out of it?
Mind you neither of them looked like the one you posted above
